Here's the information from the land of rising sun.
On Dec 25th 2008, Japanese commercial music label King Records will reissue the following Explosion Records stuffs on CD format.
SABBRABELLS - s/t (1983) with bonus tracks (live and unreleased songs)
GROUND ZERO - Gate of Death (1986) with bonus tracks (the "Etherealize"-7inch and more)
DOOM - No More Pain (1987) with bonus tracks (the "Go Mad Yourself!"-7inch)
SHELL SHOCK - Mortal Days (1989) with bonus tracks (the "Self Defence"-7inch, the demos and more)
JURASSIC JADE - Gore (1989) with bonus tracks (from the "Heavy Metal Force 3-comp LP and more)
JURASSIC JADE - Dareka Ga Koroshita Hibi (1991) with bonus tracks (the "Pirated Edition Vol.1"-tape)
In my opinion, it would be better to buy the SABBRABELLS and the GROUND ZERO because those are the first CD reissue.

Excellent news! Now, to find a seller whose packages won't get stuck in customs (ie. not CD Japan).

Oh yeah ! I guess that the main problem will be to find a seller... I'd gladly take them from Rockstakk but his CDs are often out-of-stock very fast.

play-asia.com will have Sabbrabells I'm sure. JJ would be interesting as well but I guess it's too ,,hard" for their catalogue

Stormspell Records needs to get them all in stock.

But since it's a commercial label availability might not even be a big problem. I've seen Japanese heavy metal releases by bigger labels available for reasonable prices in some European webstores.

This is good news indeed! Unreleased Sabbrabells material sounds enticing...

I'd love to, but with so many pending releases on my hands I simply don't have any spare cash whatsoever to spend on distro inventory

just contact Mikitoshi from Rockstakk, no problem with the custom.
he always sends the stuff as gift with a low value on the custom decleration.
will ask him later if he´ll get them in december.
