i don't own any steel on the list as i only collect steelbooks of movies i actually like, but from an objective point of view I'd say istd deserved it

I think @davhyl might have meant which Drive steelbook should win the best Drive steelbook award, unless I'm mistaken.

Drive Nova Media is miles better than HMV Drive....I cannot understand why the response to that release has been so mixed from our community....just because the HMV Drive was considered a grail by a large number of early steelbook collectors does not mean it cannot be surpassed in quality...and does not mean it is blasphemous to consider it the 2nd or 3rd best Drive steelbook around!!

All this, of course, is in my opinion only, but it's strange to see people tearing down a fantastic release for no reason whatsoever especially when it is time to celebrate the winner, which is a different title!!
 
Drive Nova Media is lot more impressive than the HMV steelbook by a big margin

HMV version has no inside artwork

Drive Nova Media has inside artwork and in my opinion the artwork of the steelbook is lot better than HMV
The Full Slip and the Lenticular are amazing looking along with the steelbook itself

The HMV steelbook to me is only worth its original retail price and not a penny more and what price some sellers are expecting to get online for the HMV steelbook are in crazy land as its way over priced for what it is

I consider in this order the best looking Drive Steelbook
1) Drive Nova Media Lenticular
2) Drive Nova Media Full Slip
3) Drive Nova Media 1/4 Slip
4) Drive Mondo Future Shop
5) HMV Steelbook

I saw the Devil Steelbook Pet Slip is beautiful and I gave it my vote and I also voted for Drive Nova Media

Both are amazing looking and both designed by Plain Archive
If the final votes had off been tied and I had to choose between them
Drive Nova Media would have gotten my preference
