For anyone else getting all the variants, there are the above (so far), plus:
White vinyl
Black/white marbled vinyl
Purple vinyl
Apparently, in the new year, they will also release a pink pressing and a second black pressing.

I don't see why anyone would by this on audiophile media like vinyl as poorly recorded and mixed as it is. I do like the album quite a bit, but it seems like they made it in Danzig's garage on a Tascam 4-track.

Well I'll be god damned, there is an Aussie pressing I found in store today!
Purple arrived.
You make my Danzig fandom look like a joke.
Arrived: USA white vinyl with 2x promo posters. Just waiting on the black/white marbled one to arrive:
Here is how all the variants look, apparently there are 2 black pressings. I need to locate the other black one:
who needs money for retirement, right?
I can't believe you sold all that awesome rare Type O stuff so you could afford to have 19 copies of Danzig's old man tits on vinyl.
Black/white marbled boobies arrived
YOU SON OF A BlTCH!

N.I.B. video. Caution: titties.
Chicks are hot, instrumentally the cover is decent (except for that drum tone....yeesh), but then we have Glen's voice. Hilariously awful, part. on the "Your love for me..." section towards the end.
The thing is, Tommy is still playing guitar and producing Prong albums and they sound no where near as bad. I think he just does whatever Glenn says and phones it in for a paycheck.
He made his own cover album last year and his production and playing is streets ahead of Skeletons.
I think the problem is Glenn's a control freak and he's a terrible producer now.
It's frustrating because I think he could still create some great stuff if he let someone else handle the recording.

Haha I was just telling this to my wife last night as I was watching this video. Saying that this cover, his live performances and in general he needs less what I call "wheedle-y whee" sounding guitar noodles and more gritty, back to basics guitar playing with the occasional shred.
I want a reunion of the original I-IV lineup!
so curious how much they threw at Danzig to make this happen. He's such a jerk I'm assuming a shit ton of money is the ONLY reason this happened. Still kinda cool. Damn shame they couldn't work all this out like 15 or so years ago when Danzig's solo career started dying, and everyone involved was still relatively young.
Who is left to reunite that hasn't from back in the day? Obviously The Smiths are the holy grail for alot of people. Who am I forgetting? Hell, Midnight Oil just reunited again!
also
I saw Danzig with Doyle in 2006, before he completely let the musicianship in his band slip. They played a Misfits set, it was great.
I can't see this being much more than a quick money grab but I'll definitely go to see Glenn sing those songs again if they come to Australia. He can still belt those songs out very well (revisit them, there is some GREAT songwriting in the original Misfits catalogue).
I wish Glenn never gave the Misfits name away so easily back in the day, the legacy has been soiled in a major way with the crap Jerry has done since. I'm sure Glenn made a lot of money from it too.
