OMD - English Electric in a Tin

Look what arrived in the post today - English Electric, the new album by OMD, as a stunning box set and vinyl package.

So, here's what I got:

• An OMD embossed tin
• The album on CD
• A CD of demos
• A DVD
• A foldout cover to hold the above 3 items
• Three cards with artwork
• Three cards with photos of the band 'in concert'
• A blue vinyl 7" single with an exclusive b-side ('Frontline')
• A booklet with lyrics and photos
• A signed card - I think they call it a 'certificate of authenticity'
• Some foam packaging to keep the above safe in the tin
• The album on vinyl in a die cut sleeve, so you can rotate the inner sleeve to make different versions of the artwork (it's just like the OMD/Architecture and Morality/Dazzle Ships albums covers all over again, which kept me entertained as a child)

 

Oh, and there were two metallic badges as well, which I think were extras thrown in to the parcel as it was a pre-order and might not be part of the boxset.

 

Here's the vinyl "die cut" sleeve - see how I've radically changed the artwork.

And here's the tin... I know, taking photos of tins is possibly an all time low for me.
