Limited Edition Deluxe Magazine Edition
This edition comes with a specially designed deluxe package shaped like a magazine (H 260mm x W 184 mm x T 16mm) packed with photography and special article not available elsewhere.

Hmm.. sounds overly complicated. Should've just made a "comes with deluxe photobook" version

I'll order the magazine edition. I'd have loved the CD+DVD deal, but my DVD players can't play R2 DVDs anyway.

The apparent cover for BABY ACTION:

They're looking more and more like an idol group everyday...

Okay so this is the apparent CD cover for the album (the other was the LE magazine cover):

Does this mean the uniform gimmick is dead now since they do not share a single item of clothing (colour aside) in this pic?

Is this the 3rd time they release a single that's also on the album, which will release just a bit later? Haven't they learned that's gonna ruin the single's sales

Looking forward to hear BURN. lol

It's about time.

Really, I think the girls would benefit from creating their own songs. I mean, if they don't we are not really listening their sound but something someone envisioned for them.

I've been saying that since the first album!

GekiDan · « **Reply #11 on:** July 11, 2011, 07:19:22 AM »

Their previous singles are composed by a different guys besides "Pride".

boykun · « **Reply #12 on:** July 11, 2011, 08:35:45 AM »

Hidaka Tooru produced track, nice

First sneak preview of the new album (w/ interview mid song):

Hmm.. the guitars sound promising on all songs but the vocals are a little bit "helium" for me...

TV commercial for the new album:

CDJapan notified that they shipped both Love Survive and Baby Action today, they didn't say whether I won the poster or not (cross my fingers!). It'll be at least another 2 weeks before my order arrives. Anyone wins the poster, please boast about it!

SCANDAL No Theme MV .. ( from DVD Baby Action )

yupyupyup · « **Reply #18 on:** August 10, 2011, 06:19:45 AM »

That's one funny MV there. I'm surprised that the narration is in English, and didn't Mami trash that white guitar in the first photobook?

Rickker708 · « **Reply #19 on:** August 10, 2011, 09:01:19 AM »

Just for giggles, I just looked the girls up on I-tunes(sony took them off long ago).
The three albums are there for purchasing!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
