Newbie Collector, need advice

[Actarus]

Hello All

I'm a newbie collector and it's been about a month and a half that I started collecting steelbooks and now knowing the difference between a steelbook, a viva metal case or a futurepak so on that, Thank you for those who helped me.

I am however wondering how many steelbook when you absolutely love a release and you would like more than 1 copy, the thrill of a rare release, a beautiful artwork etc... how many is too many ? I went a bit crazy on some titles, happy that I did though I look at them and I feel like they are my babies lol they're just so beautiful sealed and side by side...am I loosing it or I'm not the only one feeling this way ?!

any point of view from others would be welcomed...

All depends, if it's multiple copies of the same steelbook then yeah, 2 or more is a bit extreme

If your collecting different variants of a certain film then the more the better IMHO

I collect my favourite films across many different editions and formats (Die Hard & Alien for example)

I figured all metal cases were called Steelbooks in the end. What are the differences? >_<
