you calling it a Grail, does not or will not make it a Grail release

It was a joke, mate. However, I think it'll be a personal favorite of mine by the looks of the design, booklet and soundtrack.

Indeed too many awesome, slick, classy steel it over last couple of years it is mind boggling, The earlier Grail releases Stand Strong as they are Classics and they just happened to become Grails over time.

We do not decide what will be a grail release, Grail releases happen on their own, the simply just happen...and there will be less and less because of the amazing steels that just keep popping up all over the place, so when one will pop up as a future Grail, it won't be because people will have named it to be the next Grail .

The Next Grail Release will just ''creep up'' on us and just take us by surprise.

Yes...."we" are the ones who decides who are the grails and who are not. We are the ones who paid the extra bucks to get what we want in our collection. In time someone will be looking for this one too. Grails don't "pop up" by itself...it's only a matter in how atractive and how difficult it's to get one, it's only a thing of supply and demand...always "we" using the Bay as the meter to buy or to sell. Grail is the other name for "value in the bay market". Many thanks for those members here and the other forums GB for helping us to get those grailtiful releases,

its only a grail (and how I hate that word) if you're a Marvel fanboy.

I'm an obsessive Marvel fanboy. I don't consider this a "Grail" [emoji2]

 

[Marina Blue]

nah, it's a grail...

it's a bit of tin that will be worth £3 in 5 years, but i don't mind

That's what worries me about collecting steelbooks in general.

To be fair, if you're collecting with the hope of seeing a reasonable return in a few years then you are going to be sorely disappointed, especially if (like me) you open everything.

as you can see with the 4th picture even the non glossy parts of the steel reflect(a little) the things, people etc

too bad my copy has a little paintchip on the lower part of the front

No need to worry! It's a simple fact. Within the next 10 years max 99% of all steelbooks will be basically worthless. Things like Disney, Marvel etc less so due to the nature of those that collect those brands, but the rest? A few quid on Ebay at best.

I spent 100's on individual rare laserdiscs back in the days, now you can pick them up for pennies, same with DVD. Bluray steelbooks will go the same eventually.

For those like me that buy to keep its not really an issue. Those hoping to have a nice valuable collection are utterly wasting their time. Technology is not a good long term investment.

Too bad about the paint chip, but the pics look great.

Nobody can predict the future but who knows if blu-ray will be the last physical media format since actually there's no real difference in picture and sound quality from 4k BD in my home theater. Well maybe 8K

You don't have any 4k Blu-rays.
UltraHD Blu-rays have not been released yet.
Probably wrong thread?
