Modifying SteelBooks

I seriously doubt it. If taking a part one steelbook devalues that person's SteelBook because its no longer original then in that same ideology it only increases the value of others since there is one less of that steels qty off the market. ;p
Also, if you intend to keep them, and they become a one of a kind that only you have, it's more valuable to yourself than it was because it just looks better.
I couldn't care less if I "devalue" my SteelBooks. I don't care about their value, because I collect SteelBooks for the enjoyment and I know that I will never recoup what I have spent, and have no intention of ever selling any (keep your hands off my Iron Man).
I also open them all and watch them. If I can make them look a little better than they were originally, then all well and good. I just can't understand why people will buy a SteelBook, keep it sealed and buy an Amaray to watch, just so they may make a profit on them later.

Great job on the Wolfman Steel. Looks great!

We wouldn't be opening them in the first place if value was our first priority. It's about having a personalized collection.

Well said and put, totally agree with it all. Guess I'll be upsetting more people when my 100th Anniversary Serenity turns up as I have the new inside already printed for when it arrives
But before that think 300 may well be done later on today
^ Look forward to seeing them Zesty.
I'm gonna work on the inside art of The Thing French SteelBook tomorrow. Already have artwork printed for Gran Torino German 1st release when it arrives from a fellow collector.

OOO very nice! I really want to get on and do some of mine, but i need better glue/ double sided tape
^ I just use a Bic glue stick and some sellotape double-sided tape. I fix the spine art to the spine using tape, and I glue the spine back on the plastic by rubbing the glue stick along the plastic AND the spine artwork. This way also gives you a bit of flexibility in moving the spine around until you have it in position. For best results remove any lumps of glue before fixing. Glue dries clear. Then I place SteelBook on its spine for about 15 minutes, and its done
Managed to get an hour to myself and heres the result, am quite loving that 300 if i do say so myself!!

You chose well for the Serenity artwork. Devil's Double looks good too.

I'm thinking of using the same artwork for my Expendables SteelBook. Not happy with the artwork that I have in there now. Possibly my worst looking inside art so far.
