Is Bigger Better? (As in Steelbooks!) - Jumbo vs Slim Steelbooks

[digitalbabe]

Ahem, as in "Jumbo" Steelbooks of course!

What do you think of the Jumbo Steelbooks? (i.e UP and Monsters Inc).

Chime in!

Hate them. They feel cheap.

Jumbo Steels just look bad in my opinion.

I recently converted my jumbos. These have the best art available in steelbook form. No j-cards were harmed in the conversion of these steels. I still have the original j-cards.

But I dare not convert Up FS with stickers.

personally I really like them, so pity that there is just few uk releases like the dark knight/batman begins, The Walking Dead Season 1,2,3,4 and The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey 3D

They just seem out of place on my shelf. So, no I am not a fan of them.

Hi fellow Ninjas!

I only own the Superman ultimate collector's edition (DVD) and the first Assassin's Creed game as jumbo steelbooks.

I prefer the regular size steelbooks since the jumbos take up a lot of space. Plus you can make nicer displays with the slim steelbooks, e.g. the three Lord of the Rings steelbooks or the upcoming Indiana Jones Steelbooks.

Cheers,
Giancarlo

I only have the Dark Knight/Batman Begins one and the plastic isn't as noticeable due to the colour but it still looks out of place.

For TV series I would prefer the tin as in Band Of Brothers.

tin looks much better for series idd

I don't *hate* them, I just much prefer regular G2 sized Steelbooks personally.

Prefer regular ones. The jumbos just look a bit odd on the shelf. :0)

I really don't like them. To be honest if I had the choice out of a standard boxset and a Jumbo I still would prefer the standard boxset.

How about a "tri-fold" steelbook? A little thicker than a normal steelbook, but folds out twice to hold more discs. It would take a little ingenuity to create and still keep it small(ish), but it could be the next big thing!
