As one of those albums that started off small but has just grown and grown, Warners are planning to cash in on the ever growing popularity of the Flaming Lips' 'Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots' by releasing a special edition featuring b-sides, a Japanese version of the title track and an acoustic rendition of 'Do You Realize?' plus videos and a 'making the video' featurette. Disc two features two videos for "Do You Realize?," directed by Mark Pellington and Lips frontman Wayne Coyne, plus a making-of featurette. A trailer for the Lips' long-in-the-works holiday film "Christmas on Mars" is also included. No UK release date as yet - though it may well hit stores during the band's up coming UK tour:
