Re: Squeeze Box - compleat Al box set coming November 24, 20
I think it's lucky that it was Namco that Al had to ask for permission. Recently they are very open to people who want to revitalize Namco IPs. (Personally I think of Toru Iwatani when I hear about Pacman. He is a nice person.)
Some game companies are much harder to approach...
Anyway Pacman + Beatles combination seems to be still newsworthy in Japan, and I see Japanese IT news sites are reporting the release. "Only one person in the world can think of doing such things."

Re: Squeeze Box - compleat Al box set coming November 24, 20
I just saw that they updated the PledgeMusic site with a first look at the socks included with the sets. Unfortunately, you need to have pre-ordered the set to see them. I was wondering if anyone who has preordered the set could post the photo here. I've been wondering what the socks would look like and have been waiting to pre-order myself in the hopes that they would show them. Thanks.

I knew Platinum Vinyl Box Set Bundle order deadline is Feb 28, but I just noticed other box set items do have "All orders placed by February 28, 2017 are guaranteed delivery" notice.
I guess other bundles might become "sold-out" at some time after Feb 28...

Al was recently interviewed on The Kevin Pollak chat show (see here: https://youtu.be/KKNdufO9G7U" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;) and at one point he explained that since they cost SO MUCH to manufacture, they're making the number preordered plus a few more, but not tons. Those will then go on sale generally and once those sell out, they're sold out and no more will be made.
