I didn't realize there was such a big following with Steelbook and that there were so many collectors.

Are any of you Steelbook collectors?

Really cool product. Seems to have picked up a lot of collectors. Some of the Futureshop (it's like Best Buy) exclusive Steelbooks are fetchig crazy prices. Two years ago, these were going for $30 CDN with tax:

Wow, I had a bunch of these that I think I may have either thrown away, or have dented up.

I had no idea that they were collectable. :D

I even see some of them in stores still at times. Now I'll have to take a closer look.

Yeah, i didn't realize people went that crazy for them until recently, too. I have a bunch of them and have always loved them, but I've never considered myself a collector. I just like them a lot.

Damn, people go crazy for some of them, personally, I like regular versions better.

Any Steelbook collectors been following the Mondo release? Lovely stuff. I am happy I got the first 6 since they were Canadian exclusives (Futureshop and then Best Buy after the company absorption), but apparently 006 and 007 will be Target exclusives. A pity since Target moved out of Canada.

I don't have any of the Mondo Steelbooks but they all look great. I really like the Dredd one.

Any chance you bought any of the Batman Vinyl or Prints that they did recently?

My wife is a supervisor at TARGET Oak if I can help you with anything! I have no clue what "Mondo" is but if you forward the info I'll get my wife right on it. I got the TARGET exclusive Steelbook edition of Lone Survivor and American Sniper. I also have the Steelbook edition of Zero Dark Thirty, but I think that was Best Buy. Let me know Oak what you think.

Dann and Rich, thanks for the offer. I might just take you up on the offer when the steelbooks are released in the next few months.

David, unfortunately I did not move to get them; I fear falling into yet another hobby.. The Batman vinyl is especially cool. I hope you got one.
