If you ask me, I'm not sure it's worth the money, packaging wise it's nice, but content wise.. the cards aren't that great (old photoshoots re-used, not much variety), the live is great though..
Whereas the regular CD+DVD first press has all the PVs, packaged in a sleevecase if you manage to get the first press edition which also comes with a photocard.. Depends what are your priorities I guess

To be honest, i bought the CD+DVD edition because i love music videos, I got a Jung-A card and a slipcase. It's a taiwanese version, and is cool !!!!

Editorial Description:
The 1st album consists of hit songs and new songs, as well as famous composers such as Ailee’s ‘Heaven’ & NU’EST’s ‘Action’ composer, Iggy & Seo Young Bae combination, Big Bang’s ‘하루하루’, After School’s ‘Shampoo’ and etc’s Japan’s best composer Daishi Dance, hip hop’s pride with the unique and fresh lyrics, Buga Kingz’s Juvie Train, Narsha & Brown Eyed Girls’ composer east4A, and even hit lyricist Kim Ee-Na, take part in this Orange Caramel album.

Orange Caramel’s title song for this album ‘립스틱 (Lipstick)’ is an addictive song with a strong melody and outstanding sound also filled with Orange Caramel’s unique music style. Mixed with an unfamiliar genre, “Roman Electronic”, Orange Caramel’s electronic ‘립스틱 (Lipstick)’ gives an exciting impression with an upbeat saxophone and synthesizer sound along with the fresh lyrics about smearing lipstick on the guy they first met but play innocent while saying “omo omo’. This song is a combination of Orange Caramel’s bubbly, cutesy fresh voice, with cute choreography and receiving appraisal for the song’s perfect harmony.

Additionally the album also contains the unique and fresh tune and lyrics of ‘밀크쉐이크 (Milkshake)’, as well as solo songs with each member’s various charms.

Tracklist:
1.*Bubble*Bath
2.*밀크쉐이크 (Milkshake)
3.*립스틱*(Lipstick)
4.*아잉♡
5.*마법소녀
6.*아직…
7.*Superwoman
8.*One*Love
9.*샹하이*로맨스*(上海之戀)
10.*클라라의*꿈*
11.*눈을*감아*
12.*사랑을*미룰*순*없나요
13.*방콕시티*(2012*New*Recording)

(Editorial description translated by Ayu)*

I notice something with O.C. and A.S. title songs:

Shampoo - A.S.
Bubble Bath - O.C.
Eyeline - Nana Solo
Lipstick - O.C.

xD That's like a small fortune! Really $30 is a lot.

Do you only get a photocard with the first press edition of the Playgirlz CD+DVD? I would prefer the DVD with the music videos but I really want a photocard. $30 is a lot of money... that's why I'm debating this so much.

[Utena]

yeah sadly the trading card and cardboard box are both limited to the first press only :/ I don't know if Yesasia still have some first press copies in stock or not, but CDJapan are out of first presses, but HMV still has it
They also made an OS press (both HK & Taiwan), Idk if you mind or not, but at least you can save a few $$$ and get the first press bonuses

YesAsia still has first press editions of the most expensive version, but they don't have any for the CD Only or CD+DVD. Does HMV have first press editions of the CD and/or CD+DVD? I've never used HMV before. I would prefer a Japan edition but if it came down to it I might buy an OS press. I guess price and whether or not I will get the photocard is most important to me.

Thank you so much for all the help you're giving me!

[Utena]

HMV is cool, the only 'problem' is that they only offer EMS.. which can be pricy sometimes! They still have first presses for both CD and CD+DVD editions though I guess it's up to you now! The OS press for the CD+DVD is nice though, nothing differs except for the Obi and they also included a small booklet with the lyrics in Mandarin

They only offer EMS? Hm, that's strange. I went through the purchasing process and I thought it said shipping was 500 yen but I might have read something wrong. Thanks so much for all of your help. I'll let you know once I've decided, but I feel like I'm leaning towards the CD+DVD version.

[dreamland2.0]

The song sounds like it's going to be awesome!! Really excited!

[bondingo]

Wow, Lipstick sounds really good from the teaser. It seems like it's going for that Mr. Saxobeat sound.

[adantatu2]

Less than 20 seconds and i love the song !!!1
The pics on the teaser are lovely
