these 4 + room 1408 are by far the best releases germany gave us . golden ages of german steels
It's protected due to the title and time period .. just like Death Race.
We've seen many more of the same title in steel ...but none use the thicker gauge metal they used back then plus emboss/deboss cost extra so they arent wiling to fork over more money for reprint of these titles. Which is why you see cheap like reprints of these titles that cant compare.
You are more likely to get another premium edition of something like Thor then these lower class movies. Not saying I dont like them .. as I own both, but studios wont spend more money on a bigger risk by debossing etc. Back when those 2 came out they still had marketing campaigns going from theatrical and first release on home video.
Due to this ideology there are steels that are protected.
sorry I couldn't help it! My dirty mind!
A gentle reminder - please use the trade forum for all trade/purchase requests. Thank you for your participation and cooperation.
Definitely need to start checking out ebay for this one. Would prefer if it had English text, but overall, it's just too nice.
the story of how i got this was kind of funny, at that time i know of its existence but i had the French edition, which i used to love so there was not need for me to get this one but i was checking some stuff at ebay and i saw the seller was having this one and the first one as package, i don't ever remember but the bid was low for both so i could not resist to push the botton and i all ready had the first movie lol, after me there was no other bid so i won(the kind of bid you expect not to win lol) in the end i got this baby and OMG! loved it since then, pix look awesome, but in hand kids!....it's just wow! so if you get the chance to get this boy, DO IT! 
Pictures don't do the steelbook justice , you really need to have this baby in your hands and just admire the beautiful steelbook , glad i own it

I have to re-iterate this sentiment. This truly is one of the nicest steels IMO. Top 10 of all time for myself for sure if not top 5 maybe. Really gotta have it in hand to appreciate how nice these older steelbooks were in terms of finish, heavy steel and debossing. And this one's artwork makes it even nicer. Surprised this steel isn't at the same level as Wanted or a few other older DE titles.
Got it finally yesterday in my collection, man now i have hellboy 1 and 2 first print german editions set complete. Cost me 35 euros.
I love the finish on this, its like a foil finish seen on rare trading cards from back in the day
Anybody got any idea how much a mint open one of these is worth - asked on the price thread but got no reply. None seem to have sold that I can see on the bay so a bit unsure how to price it. Thanks anyone.
Is that round sticker on top of, or underneath the shrink wrap? Been thinking about trying to pick this up to complete my Hellboy SBs, but not sure if it's under the shrink as I don't open any of them.
