Editions

The album was released in three different editions: CD & DVD Limited Press Edition, CD & DVD Edition, and the Regular CD Edition.

The CD & DVD Limited Press Edition contains the CD album, and a DVD containing the "Japan Premium Party -Bang! Bang! Bang!- Live at AKASAKA BLITZ" show, along with Playcards[4] and 1 trading card randomly selected out of 9 different styles.

The CD & DVD Edition contains the CD album and a DVD containing the 5 Original Japanese Version music videos, and three Japanese Dance Edit Version music videos of Bang!, Diva and Rambling Girls. It all comes in a cardboard slipcase, once again including 1 trading card out of 9 different styles along with other trading cards.
