ferguson1 Posted September 17, 2021 Share Posted September 17, 2021 Does anyone collect these or look out for a special release of a movie or TV series? I have a few Blu-ray Steelbooks mostly bought before the kids arrived and when I lived at home. Still have a soft spot for them when I see them and have a few on display in the study/office area upstairs. The Walking Dead ones with artwork on the front by Jock are great, I have series 1-8 still unopened and the James Bond 50th anniversary boxset, I like. Some are going for silly prices now but just wondered if there is interest in these amongst VT friends? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ingram85 Posted September 17, 2021 Share Posted September 17, 2021 In my late teen early twenties time I loved steelbooks and LE’s of anything. Films, music, games etc… Now? You’re lucky if I even buy the basic blu ray. I’ve started buying normal dvds again instead and they are just fine. I’ve realised what a rip off the hd market is. HMV have started selling deluxe limited editions of films for something like £30. The basic film on base dvd is a fiver. Less on eBay or in charity shops. It’s madness. Games too, standard editions all the way apart from goty editions where it has all of the dlc included. I still remember queueing at the midnight launch on new street to get the special edition of halo 3 with the master chief helmet. Daft. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course you do give a full and frank take on an extensive collection, but at the same time a critical theory on the over commercialisation of film and it's perceived art. Bravo.

I don't see what they add to be honest for the extra cost Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
