Алан Уайлдер: Я занимался отбором материала и мастерингом, а Мартин Аткинс отвечал за оформление. Японцы просили эти бокс-сеты, так как на их рынке ощущалась нехватка такого рода сборника с роскошным оформлением - того, что в Европе и США традиционно плохо продается. Их производство дорого обходилось, что вызывало высокую розничную цену - опять же, для всех рынков, кроме японского, такое не подходит. А в Японии наоборот был ажиотаж.
В продажу бокс поступил по цене ¥5.000, это около £20 по курсу того времени. Пример: семи дюймовка в магазине тогда стоила £1-3, двенадцати дюймовый сингл или альбом £3-6, а компакт-диск с альбомом £9. Каждый бокс был выпущен в количестве 2.500 штук.
Каждый диск имеет числительное название, написанное на четырёх языках: Cinco (испанский), Sex (шведский), Семь (русский), Oziem (польский).
Были допущены грубые ошибки в оформлении издания.
*в буклете "CD5 - Cinco - Instrumentals" неверно указано: 01. Any Second Now - это Any Second Now (Altered) 02. My Secret Garden - это Further Exerpts From: My Secret Garden
*в буклете "CD6 - Sex - B Sides" неверно указано: 03. Any Second Now - это Any Second Now (Voices)
*в буклете "CD7 - Cемь - Live One" будет правильно: 01 - 09 записаны в Hammersmith Odeon, London в октябре 1982 года 10, 11 записаны в The Empire Theatre, Liverpool в сентябре 1984 года
*в буклете "CD8 - Oziem - Live Two" неверно указано: 03, 04, 05 запись концерта для Swiss Radio DRS3 в марте 1986 года 11, 12 записано в Pasadena Rose Bowl, 18 июня 1988 года
*будет правильно: 01, 05, 11, 12 записаны в Pasadena Rose Bowl, 18 июня 1988 года 02, 03, 04, 10 записаны Swiss Radio DRS3 в Basel, Switzerland 30 ноября 1984 года 07, 08, 09 записаны в The Empire Theatre, Liverpool в сентябре 1984 года
