I might just pick this up. Especially since I don't own the original print.

I have the original and the Heaven Can Wait EP. That 2nd disc has nothing that interests me so I won't need to pick this one up.

I got the original and the reissue. Not sure i'll grab this one.

didnt they already re-release Heading for tomorrow?

yea they re-released everything up til NWO I believe

now its going to be re-re-released

The more I think about this one, the more I think I'm in. Depending on the price of course as I am really only interested in the bonus disc and the three extra tracks that my original press doesn't have. Like exact33 said it's going to be re re released, but their stuff isn't that easy to find. It took me about four years to finish the discography.

Okay, so I did purchase this, found it on the Bay this morning for $14 bucks shipped. Should be in soon. Anyway, it appears that Kai and Co. have another live offering coming out on Oct.16 called "Heading for the East" as well as a rerelease or deluxe edition of "Sigh No More" Anyone got any more info?

Heading for the east is a re-release as well. It's actually a cd version of a VHS they released when Ralf was still in the band. Great live album.

This is the original

Like I said of you in the Helloween thread, the man knows. Thank you, sir. I am going to you with any further Kai Hansen related questions. Ha.

So, my copy actually arrived yesterday and I spun it twice (both discs) and I really like the bonus material. The instrumental of Mr. Outlaw is like a cool jam track; and the different versions of HfT are great. I never got the EP's from the early years of the band, so it's a plus to have these tracks. I will certainly be picking up the rest of the "Anniversary" reissues.

Guys, don't buy it from AMAZON - they charge $14 and their copy is a cheap cardboard slipcase edition

Ok. Thanks, stormspell. Mine is a digibook with a full booklet and space for both discs. The cover has a wraparound silver banner that says "Anniversary Edition" at the top and "25 Years of Heavy Metal from Hamburg" at the bottom.

I'd have loved to receive a nice digibook with sturdy hardcover and booklet attached in between. However, Amazon sent me what is called an eco-wallet, or "mini-LP gatefold" packaging, which is basically a 4-panel cardsleeve very similar to gatefold LP cover with the booklet crammed in one of the cd slots...

Nice! I'll pick up the Heading For The East cd. I haven't heard that in years. Doesn't beat the Alive cd though.

I'm pretty good at answering Helloween or Helloween related questions lol

Wow thats good to know. I wouldn't have known a difference. If I order anything and get that I'll be sending it back.

I never really buy from Amazon as I am an Ebay guy (not as much since they started screwing me out of Ebay bucks) and my wife has the Amazon account. I sometimes have her buy something from there but it's usually an 80's band like Sleez Beez or Pretty Boy Floyd cuz it's cheaper there than on the bay.

Yeah, PRD, Alive '95 is pretty awesome. Great track listing, especially with the inclusion of the two Helloween songs.

I buy more on Amazon than Ebay because Ebay I would always worry more about Bootlegs, but Amazon seems to have the same issues sometimes as well so you can't win haha!

I have never had a problem with boots on ebay as I only buy within the U.S. (you and I are both on the East Coast so shipping is cheap) and never buy anything from Greece. The only boots I got off the bay I bought intentionally (live shows and soundboard recordings) and knew full well what I was getting.

Doesn't matter if it's Ebay or Amazon or anything else. Never buy from Greece or Eastern Europe. I know there are honest sellers among them, but sorry, at this point it's really hard to trust any. I now only buy from Germany, Scandinavia, USA, and never have any trouble with bootlegs.

Sometimes it's not even the seller that's dishonest. I've been to Romania. Some of their actual physical record stores sell bootlegs as originals. It's not like the common buyer would even know what they own isn't a worthless Russian pirated copy.

So I just stick to what I know is legit. I'd buy from England too, but there's hardly anyone into metal there nowadays, or so it seems.

EDIT: I should add Japan to trusted sellers. Always got what I was promised. But they are a reclusive lot. Rarely do you see a Japanese metal fan posting on a message board.
