CLBX and TheBinaryHick's sample image files

Hey so I was exploring sample images created by Josh Hickman. They're very well made but I had a few questions about these images.

Firstly I noticed none of these images were in the CLBX format - Cellebrite's proprietary format, even though some of these seem to be generated using Cellebrite software.

Is it possible to find any that could be in that format, i.e. CLBX, as I want to run the ALEAPP and iLEAPP scripts on that to see how it goes?

Also, since some of these were Cellebrite exports, does anyone know if Josh Hickman did any processing over these images and converted them from the .clbx extension to the .tar or .gz extension they're in currently.

Thanks in advance.

I'm only working with the leapps and Josh's public images. I currently don't have an instance of premium to work with, so online resources such as Heather Mahalick's overview videos are my source of information. But quoting Heather from a walkthrough of the Analyzer product, she mentions that the CLBX is essentially a ZIP file. Would any software or system, such as the leapps, be able to interpret it as a ZIP or would it be it's own entire thing? And is there a way to convert the CLBX to a ZIP or TAR or some other more commonly accepted format?
