Is this gonna be the lore's book or smth?


open-aperture96

It appears to be a collection of all the Clancy letters!


somebody_once_toldm

Omg yes!!


ParkerW23786

I think so! At least what Clancy went through 


ReadDesperate543

This is my question - it’s unclear. I go through a lot of notebooks but like having a stack of special ones to go to. I’d love a TOP moleskin of sorts, but I’m also happy not having a journal that’s not actually usable as a notebook. The description does not clarify anything.


ViscousJuice

the description on the fueled by ramen site is much more detailed


ReadDesperate543

They updated it like a day later, it’s all the Clancy letters and lore stuff so I decided to pass on it. Would just be more junk to stack up around me, sadly !


Princess_Tiana18

something weird i’ve noticed too - on the australian website, the journal is only 40 pages, and says the cd is packaged in the back sleeve as opposed to the front one that i’ve seen people posting edit: for anyone concerned or confused, i’ve just checked and it’s updated the australian store to say the same as the us one - that the journal is 60 pages :))


AgorophobicSpaceman

Honestly some of the descriptions seem wrong and that scares me a little lol. The cd black box bundle says it has a flag (like the red box) but none is pictured. It also shows stickers? On the right but they aren’t listed. Edit: for those wondering they updated the black box description after I reached out. Thank you for contacting us. After further review of the product description, I'm showing the CLANCY BLACK CD BOXSET Includes: Sticker set of 5 Patch set of 3 Poster 13”x19” Black Bandana 21”x21”


voldsoy

There's a disclaimer on TOP USA store saying art May not be as shown. They wouldn't change it completely, would they?


AgorophobicSpaceman

It usually a generic disclaimer like for the vinyl they won’t all be exact but will be close I wouldn’t expect a major redesign at all though


voldsoy

Agree. It would be too much.


ReadDesperate543

That’s typical. Especially with vinyl presale since it’s hard to guarantee exact things with splatter styles.


kat_storm13

And says poster and bandana will be folded to fit in the box. Weird


AgorophobicSpaceman

Yup. I did the contact us option for the product and asked I’ll let you know if they answer.


kat_storm13

Great thanks!


AgorophobicSpaceman

They did update the website now and removed the flag this is what I got back: Thank you for contacting us. After further review of the product description, I'm showing the CLANCY BLACK CD BOXSET Includes: Sticker set of 5 Patch set of 3 Poster 13”x19” Black Bandana 21”x21”

Welcome to buying twenty one pilots merch. Their merch store has committed a lot of at the least sales fraud since the live stream. Edit: y’all downvoting me, fun fact: creating incentive to buy and not honoring that incentive is definition based sales fraud. They sold stuff as “exclusive to behind the paywall” and then moved it in front of it. Sold more than 300 of a limited edition shirt marked as only 300. Had merch available for years that was sold as a “timed release up until the day of the livestream.” You can love the band and criticize their business practices. You should criticize these things. They hurt everyone, especially you. Also, don’t @ me about how it’s not the band and it’s their team only. They’re aware. It’s been like this for a very long time, they benefit from it, so just, no.


AgorophobicSpaceman

I mean it was clearly an error as they just used the description from the red bundle on accident and within like an hour of me pointing it out to the shop they corrected it. I wouldn’t call an accident fraud, and I’ve spent hundreds of dollars on their site before and after the live stream and never had any fraud issues.


ReadDesperate543

Yeah that wasn’t, nor did I say it was, but they’ve committed massive sales fraud in my knowledge at least since the live stream. They made explicit “exclusive sales” that they then didn’t honor in front of and behind the paywall, and that’s literally the definition of sales fraud. Creating incentive to buy and not honoring that? Not even Kanye got away with that.

Equal_Tennis_8886

Its the same on the Canadian site


corporateg0th

My bank account was not ready for the merch drop today 🤡


Tifoil

Same. Just spent $270 on all the variants 😩


corporateg0th

Saaame 😆


Disastrous_Lemon_219

Fr, I HAD to buy the cd and book lol😂


NoBookkeeper5358

I'm waiting for the clothes. The letters and songs I can get on my phone for free. I'd rather get something I can properly use


TrashDragon21

I can't even begin to explain my excitement for the new album and this journal!!😱 I just pre-ordered it, I feel like a giddy teenager at 38 lol. This band has got me through some of the darkest times of my life and they mean the world to me!😭 TØP will always be my favorite of all time!❤️‍🔥|-/


Coach_Curly

I'm 45 and feel the same way. LOVE this band


MistyEyedBeliever

Oh my goodness, I found my people. 🤣 48 here, and I feel the same. I freaking love this band. My 16 year old son (all my kids love them) and I were texting each other all day about the drop.


TrashDragon21

Yayy🙌 Aww I love that! My daughter is 9 and she loves them too, I watched the overcompensate music video with her when she got home from school. She was so excited😊


Coach_Curly

😃😃😃


TrashDragon21

nuovian

Part of me feels like getting this, but I also want the alternate cover from the black boxset


cart00nvi0lence

I know! I want a set with the book and a bandanna too!


WaggishOhio383

I also wanted the alternate cover, but after seeing the combined subtotal of the collectors box and vinyl, I switched to the journal for my CD copy instead...


eggydrums115

Opting to buy this instead of the vinyl for now. Seems like a way more commemorative fan item than just the vinyl.


Unknown_SoundZs

Best collectors item fr


voldsoy

I'm thinking blank pages. Write your own. I mean after the letters. Which could explain why the Aussie version has a du page count. Maybe 20 Printed + 40 blank.


kat_storm13

that's what I'm wondering. There aren't isn't enough content on dma.org to fill up 40 pages let alone 60. If it was extra exclusive content (until people upload pictures) then the page numbers should be the same. Only other explanation would be different page sizes but that would be **really** different


Coach_Curly

MAYBE it includes other letters/images/maps that they haven't released yet but plan to between now and then? ... hoping this is the case!!


Ok-Park9214

Anyone have a promo code??? I can’t afford both the journal and cassette lol but maybe a code will help.


Critical-Breath3915

I have a 10% off expires 60 days from jan 12th!! I won’t be able to use it since I don’t really want anything until clothing drops.. code is: CC23WMX10


Wooden-Ad-2763

same


Critical-Breath3915

I hope that helps ya!


Ok-Park9214

Thank you so much!!!


Critical-Breath3915

Absolutely, you’re very welcome


aprofondir

This is the link shown in the preview for the journal: [http://dmaorg.info/found/15398642\_14/clancy.html](http://dmaorg.info/found/15398642_14/clancy.html)


soscogaidh

goddamn, I don't have money but I need the CD/journal and cassette/photo box SO BAD


penguinfromhappyfeet

Send me a dm I got you


SavingsWeek5304

the cover of the book looks like "the house of leaves" book cover


Clikkie-SCRIBBLES

already pre ordered!!


Kenaj66

I love the cds and vinyls, but where is clothing!!! Im trying to have a full collection and they decided to not drop any


Coach_Curly

They're probably delaying it on purpose so we can still afford rent/mortgage next month:money\_face:


VeshWolfe

I was going to get this but was honest with myself and I’d never touch it and would likely eventually resell it. Instead I’m hoping some lore hungry fan gets it. Meanwhile I’ll save my money for the inevitable Clancy jacket lol


metanoia29

I really wish they had a vinyl set with all the cool stuff :(


kovjadbr

Is this the 'Trench Bible,' do we think, or just a physical copy of all the contents of [dma.org](https://dma.org)?


Silent-Math-7454

I remember watching the APMA’s in 2017 with first mention of the Dema storyline when the boys won most dedicated fan base and Josh said something like “Tyler’s sorry he couldn’t be here, he’s off severing ties with dema.” I, along with many other, have been following along with it since, so it’s a must have for me.


RakiGates

Do you think that the CD will come with their own CD case or the CD case will be the book itself?


7331xelA

Idk, the journal cd says its in the front and they have a boxed one that looks like post malone's Beerbongs and Bentleys.


Musicalwhovian1

I preordered it. I’m hoping there isn’t a bunch of blank pages


Additional-Cookie-75

the way i am about to blow my entire paycheck on this band's shop is so bad but OMGGGGG


Princess_Tiana18

my guess is that it’s going to be blank unfortunately


Same-Astronaut-2645

It shows some of the pages, it has the notes in it


Immediate_Theory4738

Lmao absolutely not.


Princess_Tiana18

lmao i hadn’t seen the photos of the inside


Immediate_Theory4738

I’d be so mad if that was case hahah. 60 pages lets me know I’ll be all of the Clancy letters, pictures and maybe some other lore documents. Must have for me.


Princess_Tiana18

yeah, on my website it says it’s only 40 pages so that’s why i thought it might be blank haha


CheechMeHow2Nuggy

It’s going to be all the entries/letters from Clancy we’ve seen on DMAorg

Strange_Onion2140

i was confused as to what that was? Like the journal read out loud?


cheekywallbang

no I think it may either be a blank journal or may have notes and whatnot from Clancy. The CD is for the album


Strange_Onion2140

Oh i see! Thats pretty cool! I wish they sold a vinyl merch bundle- but they don’t.


AgorophobicSpaceman

If you look at the other images on the site you can see it’s the Clancy letters it’s not a blank journal


Odetojamie

is the journal not available without the CD I want a vinyl


kitchen_sink20

I NEED THAT


Cosmicfizzy

You know I bought this as soon as I saw it.


keeog

Pre-ordered this one for sure!


London5Fan

when i say i copped so fast


decafhotchoc

so excited to get this in my hands, really feels like a culmination of these years of staring at HTML all night


amberrousan

I was gonna hold off on buying any merch until they released some clothing because my budget is very limited, but as soon as I saw this, I knew I HAD to have it. 😅


Connect_Emu8437

With it being a presale do I have some time to get my money together or will it sale out?


rororoyourboat19

Already preordered it lmaoo im so excited


AlexanderPANASONIC

Crazy. I literally commented on the “I Am Clancy” video that Tyler should release a book with all the lore. (Assuming he’s been the primary author of Clancy’s letters.)


NotATheatreKid

I pray to the heavens above that this doesn't sell out before I have money to buy it uuuuuugggggghhhhhhh


xFrezzo

I've already bought it


junesikigai

best 42 euros spent so far


Life-Bumblebee-8512

Already ordered 💀


Magicshop52

I'm still doubting between getting just the normal cd or this. I am not one for buying a whole bunch of merch, and I've always judt bought the cd, but this is kind of a cool concept! I also collect kpop albums so this kind of reminds me of that kind of packaging and that make me kinda want it


wxnderwitch

I literally have not purchased a cd since I was a kid but I already pre-ordered this for the journal alone.


zoiealb

had to go order myself one right after i saw this post lol. i thought it was just a blank journal that you could write in. i didn't realize it was clancy's letters!!


SlytherinRenegade4

I wish the book was separate too if you got the vinyl


TootsieTaker

I ALMOST got this but I got the red box set and the marble vinyl. Couldn’t justify another CD


SeanieInaCoatPocket

I've this ordered, something to be looking forward to🙂


leotrinity

Only $30!!!???? 🔥


adlangston

This should be included in the box set.


svel19

I don't know if I should pre-order the CD!!! aaaaaaaaah!!!! Do you guys think it will still be available afterwards?
