So which are your favourites that you have? Pics welcome and encouraged! .

But the ones I think look the prettiest are... Django Django - Marbled Skies (marbled vinyl) The xx - I See You (clear vinyl) POLICA - United Crushers (rose coloured vinyl) Foals - Everything Not Saved Will Be Lost Part 1 (violet vinyl) C Duncan - The Midnight Sun (burgundy vinyl) King Gizzard - Polygondwanaland (4-way coloured vinyl) Ash - Goldfinger (clear glitter 7") Blossoms - Getaway (clear splatter 10") Supergrass - Late In The Day (gold 7") Do Me Bad Things - Time For Deliverance (pic disc 7") Athlete - Twenty Four Hours (pic disc 7") Archie Bronson Outfit - Cherry Lips (blue 7") REM - Electron Blue (sparkling blue 7") New Order - People On The High Line (shaped pic disc) Elliott Smith - Division Day (tri-color 7") David Bowie - No Plan (clear blue 12" with etching on B side) Wild Beast - Reach A Bit Further (tri-color 12") Queen - Bohemian Rhapsody/I'm In Love With My Car (RSD 2019 purple/yellow split 7") This post has been edited by DalekTethered32: Oct 20 2019, 04:56 PM

That said, I'm rather fond of the white vinyl Tubes Prime Time with the TV picture cover: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/The-Tubes-Prime-...9-/303304018282 and also my American cereal packet picture disc of The Archies' Catching Up On Fun. You literally had to cut it out from the back of a packet of cereals imported to Singapore from the USA - the cereals were full of little weevils so it was a one-off buy! I'm sure US export food standards have improved since 1970 or else we wouldn't be trying to match them using Brexit as a device to make it cheaper. UK imports to Singapore never had weevils. Just saying....... https://www.pinterest.co.uk/pin/565272190721280395/
