That would be the "Original Soundtrack". They are also a part of this reissue campaign. OP's picture shows the covers for the three Original Soundtracks - may be helpful when ordering.
Here's the Totoro Original Soundtrack, on Amazon US. There are other places to find them for sale. Prices are pretty comparable, across the internet.
Love that album! They are available on [US Amazon now] (https://www.amazon.com/My-Neighbor-Totoro-Original-Soundtrack/dp/B07GPY62DW/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1542216471&sr=8-1&keywords=ghibli+lp&dpID=51KUgSepCsL&preST=_SY300_QL70_&dpSrc=srch)
Green Spot ain't so bad, but haven't tried the others. I'm more of a Irish Whisky fan. I gotta step up my Whisky game!
here’s a link to one and the rest you’ll see in “customers also purchased.” You can also search by mpn, TJJA-10008 to TJJA-10016. https://www.amazon.co.jp/gp/aw/d/B07GPY62DW
UK: My Neighbor Totoro: Soundtrack [VINYL]
This title will be released on November 3, 2018.
Amazon.co.uk have pre-orders - Link: https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B07GPY62DW/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Oh wow when I clicked your links, I am sent to the amazon.jp pages. There's way more detail on their pages than on the American ones!
Let's take a look at the Amazon.jp page for the soundtrack.
We see that there is a matrix number on the headline: TJJA-10015. This is information not apparent on the US page. But we also see on the Japanese page the ASIN number. It is B07GPY62DW.
If we return to the US Amazon page I linked, the ASIN number is also B07GPY62DW. This seems to indicate a match.
Now to go further in depth, using the Amazon.jp link we can look at the track listing. I count 20 tracks. I'd like to see if these tracks match up with the 1988 25AGL-3058 release. I am using this discog page for reference. Just by comparing the Japanese characters on the Amazon tracklist with the characters on the discog tracklist, this also seems to indicate a match. I think that's pretty cool.
So, what do we know? We know that the US Amazon page I posted is for a "My Neighbor Totoro" LP with an ASIN of B07GPY62DW. We know from the Amazon.jp link, the LP with the same ASIN has a matrix code of TJJA-10015. This LP has a tracklist that matches with the information listed on discog for the 1988 25AGL-3058 LP. The 3058, to my current knowledge, is the soundtrack. This leads me to believe that the 2018 TJJA-10015 is a re-release of the 1988 25AGL-3058 LP. Cool.
Now here are my own personal concerns:
The US amazon page's track listing does not match with the 3058 album. The US amazon page does not have the TJJA-10015 code.
It may be possible, that for some reason, whatever is being sold on the Amazon.com (US) market is not what is being sold on their Japanese market. But I highly doubt it.
The ASIN stands for Amazon Standard Identification Number.
It is their own ID system. So, I tried taking the TJJA-10015 ASIN from the Amazon.jp page, and searched for it on the US page. The result I was given was the same link I was posted.
Here's more info on the other options:
The Image album only has 11 listed tracks with the ASIN B07GQW28VM and matrix code ending in 10014.
The Sound Book has 10 tracks, with an ASIN of B07GPXY376 and a matrix code ending in 10016.
I am confident that my post refers to the soundtrack. But I also recognize that the US Amazon page may not have an accurate track listing. Any hesitation due to this discrepancy between US and JP pages is understandable, and to all those hesitant, I encourage them to practice due diligence and see for themselves. If I am mistaken, send me PM and I would gladly edit for clarification.
Tl;dr - All three versions have different track listings, and different ASIN's. Chances are my post is for the soundtrack with a TJJA-10015 matrix code, that seems to match with the 1988 25AGL-3058 release.
