With the release of the revisited Liverpool Deluxe Edition, Zang Tumb Tumms Elemental series hits Element 19. Well Doesn't it?
Infact the truth is there have been 20 Elements in this series so far, That is if you go by the Catalogue Numbers of each release to date, when infact there have benn only 17 physical releases! But how can that be?
Below is a list of all the titles released in the series upto this latest Frankie offering.....

So THE question has to be what are elemnts 17 & 18?
Of course this is not the first time in this series that ZTT have skipped a release and come back to it soon after, on the spine of the latest Frankie release is the teaser Coming next: Blue, Azura, Lemon and Orange.....which leaves us wondering at what the next Elemental Series release will be from thoses Puppet Masters at ZTT.
