Original post:
Hope I have this in the right place. I'd like to get some hard cases for my more valuable steels. They seem hard to get. A seller on Ebay Germany is selling them, but won't ship to Canada. but was unable to get any. Can anyone help?

 

[KingSteelie]

Haha tell me about it, I'm going through my collection and seeing how many SCF1 and SCF2 i need. I'm think about just doing a small sample order and then seeing which steelbooks fit what sleeve. The only thing is i will have to pay shipping twice, but oh well.

Send us an email with the details and we can work out what steel fits what slipcover for you

Ok i'll get a list. I know all the standard ones will fit the SCF1 just fine. Its the Kimchi, Blufans, Nova, Plain, etc ones i need some help with.

Kimchi's need the SCF2's

The SCF1's are too small for them

Could anyone possibly tell me which blu ray protective slipcovers would fit my boardwalk empire with cardboard slip. Haven't got a ruler to give exact measurements but if anybody can help it would be much appreciated.

 

[lolwut]

I got the SCF2 and it fits I Saw the Devil Plain, but is too big for The Pianist Lenticular or Perfume Lenticular. Does anyone have any slips that fit those?

Have you tried the SCF1?

 

[LucasEatWorld]

Have you tried the SCF1?

Yes, I can vouch for this. Most of my Korean editions and lenticulars don't fit in the SCF1. Only thing I can get to fit in those are standard steelbooks. I might be able to get some of the lenticulars in, but I don't want to risk ruining the slip. Way too tight. I'm using the SCF2 on all of them and they're really loose but it's the only option right now.

@lolwut SCF1 are the right size for Pianist and Perfume Lenti Slips. The Perfume one is a tighter fit. I keep all my kimchi's sealed and wasn't concerned about damaging the shrink wrap during the process of putting Perfume lenti in the SCF1.

What I tend to do (where possible) is keep mine sealed, polybag them, then add the appropriate sized SCFxxx protective case. The polybag means you can be more firm when adding the protective case, if that's of any help

Here are mine in the SCF1 cases...

Your SCF1s must be cut to a slightly larger size than mine then because I spent nearly 10 minutes trying to get my lenticular Pianist copy in there and I finally gave up because I felt like I was about to ruin the slip. It just wouldn't go in.

I also tried the Pianist Lenti in the SCF1 and I couldn't get it past the numbered card and also felt that I would have to force it. My Iron Man kimchi Lenti wouldn't fit either but did manage to go into the SC3.

All my Kimchi sealed ones were too big to fit in the SCF1's so we had to get the SCF2's

I think there may be slightly variations on size even tiny amounts maybe, as I said my walking dead season 3 steelbook would not fit in the jumbo cover although others people's do fit?

 

[Hooch]

Anyone with SC3 that can try and see how they fit with some of the Kimchi, Blufans and NoveMedia editions? Thinking of Captain America Full Slip NM, Leon Full Slip Kimchi, Up 2D+3D Blufans, Jack Reacher Blufans, Tangled Kimchi, Kung Fu Panda 1+2 Blufans etc etc

@KingSteelie or someone else, could you give this a try?

 

[KingSteelie]

Can i just say the SCF1 was not made for kimchi lenticular slipcovers, but as informed by some collector's that some fit and some do not.

We had made the SCF2 to suit full slip steels, which as advertised will be loose on lenticulars. We thought that the SCF2 would be ok as at least the lenticulars are protected. It seems there are many that think the SCF2 is too big, If that's the case shall we make another slipcover for lenticulars? but please tell us what size you want us to make it.

You have to be aware of what an impossible job this is to make a product where there are so many sizes to consider, which is probably why no one has ever made these slipcovers before. If we can have everyone's input we can make the perfect slipcovers.

 

[KingSteelie]

Would not recommend SC3 the fit will be to tight, you would need the SCF2 oversize slipcover

There is no change in the size of the product, I think some people have different opinions to others, to one person its a nice fit to someone else its too tight

I am not sure that is the case, it's not my opinion that it's too tight the jumbo ones I personally got for Walking dead season 3 physically does not fit, it's not too tight, it won't go in and I'm not risking damaging my item, which is what a number of people have stated for different items.

If you made a case for lenticular slips like The Pianist and Perfume, I'd buy them. I don't have cases for them because the SCF2 is too big for my taste.

So what size would you want us to make the new slipcovers? I take it the height and width are ok on SCF2 it's just the thickness right?

 

[KingSteelie]

I am not sure that is the case, it's not my opinion that it's too tight the jumbo ones I personally got for Walking dead season 3 physically does not fit, it's not too tight, it won't go in and I'm not risking damaging my item, which is what a number of people have stated for different items.

I personally have not got the walking dead season 3 jumbo, but all my other jumbos fit the SC6 sealed. Have you got other jumbos that fit in the SC6?

No I don't have any other jumbos. It's ok it's just one of those things.

The covers for my other steelbooks, the SCF1's and SCF2's are perfect but the SC6 are not for me
