Looks to be around ~6015 now.
Update for anyone contemplating on buying: When I initially purchased it was 5125, at 3544 now, at this rate it looks like even with the bad reputation that Rainbo has this release will sell out today. Hoping the record is not complete trash like other Rainbo releases have been in the past.... their track record is not the best, they used to press side one dummy releases (they may still) on vinyl and many of the copies from their plants are off center and have noise issues. Chances are 50% of the records won't even touch a record player, but when I get mine the first thing I am doing is putting it on to judge if it is another junk pressing from Rainbo.
Disappointed to see this being pressed by Rainbo for sure. I did order it though, hoping for the best.

Not sure what plant pressed it, but the Mondo record I've been most disappointed by is "The Guest" by Steve Moore. One of the flimsiest records I own.

Oof. I am not a fan of Rainbo. Fingers crossed that this is pressed well.

I ended up importing the European pressing of the Beatles stereo box set after Rainbo totally botched the US pressing. Thankfully the Mono set wasn't done through Rainbo. What a fiasco that was.

Laurent's pints are also nice, but the $85 price tag on the variant - is that where things are headed? Seems steep for a non-Horkey Mondo release.

Cute little Sam Shepard vs. Richard Gere thing happening on the back of the shirt in Days of Heaven.

Tomer consistently makes it difficult to choose between reg and variant.

My gut says variant, but my brain thinks reg in a white frame would be lovely...
