Must have been a production mistake.  :popcorn:

Did I just hear Uwe think, "I don't collect lefties, either..." ;)

Yeah right, better late than never....
I've always been in love the the LP, now when they finally offer it lefty, it's the oversized...i like the classic one with smaller body...

The oversize one sacrifices coolness indeed.
