I hope collectors completely debunk this whole wave and drive home the harsh message to the studio and the retailer that we're sick of endless badly designed cheap rubbish being spewed out and it's time to start putting proper thought and design into steelbooks.
Prices keep going up.
Quality keeps going down.
Long gone are the days where steelbook releases were few and far between, the market is saturated with them, and as such, collectors are now being more choosey than ever with which ones their hard earned cash will go to.
At a time where the average steel is around seventeen pounds for an older catologue title and twenty to twenty six for a new release film, studios and their customers the retailers need to start paying attention to what it is their customer base want.
Ploughing this endless stream of shite out at us is just not good enough, and killing the hobby for many of us. I'll buy your premium item, and heck I may even pay a little more for it, but damn well make it premium quality in design, content and finish.
