Digital streaming and compact discs are simply too mainstream for even the most ardent Star Wars fan, right? Fortunately, Disney has got your tweed-clad back.
Walt Disney Records has announced plans to sell the Force Awakens soundtrack in 2-LP format in 180-gram vinyl. You’ll also get liner notes by director J.J. Abrams in a 16-page booklet bundled with the discs to boot.
But wait, there’s more! All of the records have been hand-etched with an only-on-vinyl 3D hologram “experience”. On Disc 1/Side B, you’ll find a holographic Millenium Falcon, and on Disc 2/Side B, there’s a holographic TIE fighter. You’ll have to view both from the correct angle under a direct light source to get a proper glimpse of the holograms, of course.
Check it out:
You can buy the Star Wars: The Force Awakens 2-LP hologram soundtrack from June 17 online at the Disney Music Emporium, but pre-orders are already open.
