The Flexipop magazine ran from 1980 to 1983 and had a free Flexi Disc with each publication. Sadly they never released a Flexi by The Damned. For fans, the wonderful Sugar & Spite fanzine provided us with a number of Flexi Discs and were usually purchased outside gigs. However, during the 1980's Eastern Bloc countries; eager for Western music came up with a clever idea of smuggling in random songs on 5" square Flexi Discs. These would be smuggled in rolled up in newspapers or taped around someone's arm. X-Ray machines were also used to produce discs.  Below is an inexhaustive list of Russian, Polish and Fan produced Flexis.
