Calibrate:
HM Orig - 2x12, color sleeves, lyric sheet - 680g listed - my scale says 630g, close enough
HTDA - 2x12 589g - my copy 610g
NTAE(Am I the first to acronymize this?) - 1x12 590g
Broken Definitive Edition - 1x12 & 1x7 848g - Original UK pressing 260g
TDS DEF - 2x12 907g - Orig US 440g/UK 400g/US Re-Issue 645g
TF DEF - 3x12 997g - Orig US 720g/EU 885g
TF Dev1- 4x12 1814g - that's 4 fucking pounds of awesome
If there's any logic to this, you could go pick up your copy off HM or HTDA 2x12 that's about what NTAE 1x12 is going to weigh. For TDS and TF some of this weight comes from 180g disks instead of the mid 90s wafer thin vinyl. But even TDS 180g Re-Issue at 645g still gets beefed up to 907g.
Broken 850, TDS 900, TF 1000 makes sense. TF Deviation 1 gets 2 pounds for 1 more LP, that's ludicrous and this is on top of the increases the other Definitive editions provide. I hope this is right, if so there may be a lot of cool stuff in there. This may also help explain the shipping charges as I apparently have 11 pounds of vinyl on the way.
Also, it looks like they've sold ~4k copies of TF Deviations 1
