The earlier ones are better, but since the advent of remastering from the master tapes, they are no longer any better in general. There may be differences that may make some better or worse. They usually have nicer packaging but are very pricey.
Japanese vinyl is not necessarily sonically better but is definitely sonically different. More upper midrange presence. Like CDs. No wonder SETs are so popular in Japan.
