The #RSD12 Record Store Day 2012 "Missing" Items list

So I've been meaning to write this for a week now, but work and exhaustion have held it up, so I apologize.   But for those of you in the UK/Europe, you have an *awesome* list of items heading your way that many in North America would love to have.  Speaking of, if anyone in the UK would WANT TO TRADE for any items, please let me know.  I will pretty much have my pick of every US release available, so I can nearly guarantee any item you want. 

So with that said, let's look at the items that did *not* make the Record Store Day "official" list.  Remember, to be considered an official RSD release, you basically have to have the sticker/logo on the item and it has to meet their approval.  Know that there are some *great* items coming out on Record Store Day, that your store may get (if you want it, be sure and ask if they ordered it!) that still should be recognized.  If you know of an item that I missed, please LET ME KNOW by leaving a comment and I'll be sure and get it added!!
