Hi everyone... I've been a blu ray collector for a while now and have recently started to crawl down the steelbook rabbit hole which has lead me here. I can only imagine media psychos will feed my addiction until there's no hope left for me haha!

hi everyone, its pretty funny, because I joined MP about 3 years ago, just to browse, but at the time, these Premiums seemed too far off my budget. I would collect a few steelbooks here and there. Now, over the past few months, and I guess this is one thing we can blame covid for, I started buying some premium editons that I had missed over the last few years. let me tell you, I missed a lot. Some notable recent purchases for me are the Se7en OC, Pulp Fiction Nova, the Kill Bills Nova, Ex Machina Manta, 3 x Star Wars from blufans, and quite a few others. Im really looking forward to joining some Group Buys, I dont want to miss any good releases like I di…

Hi there, New member from Washington State, USA. I've been a casual buyer of media all my life, but have really turned up the heat on blu-rays over the last three years as the streaming universe has become more unclear/chaotic and I've come to care more about presentation and experience. The heart of my collection is films noir, and I tend to gravitate towards older films in general, as well as American arthouse and independent. Favorite directors: Anthony Mann, Jacques Becker, Sam Fuller, Mario Bava, Ida Lupino, and John Carpenter. Excited to be here and to get down on some GBs!

Thank you all for the very warm welcome! Greetings from London, UK. I’ve always been a huge film fan, but I hadn’t bought any physical media in about 7 years as I don’t really like owning too many things. But that all changed two months ago when I saw ‘The Irishman’ on criterion. The artwork just really spoke to me and I knew I had to have it. Searching for niche hobbies during lockdown may have also had something to do with it.... Since that purchase, I’ve bought a few collectors editions and steelbooks. Hoping to get some premiums on here, already in for the Apocalypse Now group buy! My goal is to have a small, curated collection of my all time favour…

Hey all!!! Name's Daniel from Toronto Canada eyyyhhhhh!?!?!? Been collecting for about decade and recently started trimming the fat because i want my collection to represent me as an individual and not just a collector. My gateway drug into the mid/higher end of titles was FutureShop's (Canadian OG BestBuy RIP) Ironman exclusive and still have it to this day! However i've fallen off the SB fascination as of late because there seems to be coming out the Oprah factory and the appeal is just no longer there. I'm now here looking for deals, information, and maybe down the road helping others in this hobby we all share towards the likes of blufans, hdzeta, manta…

Well. What to say I have been a movie fan all my life, I think. Started with VHS. Mostly Disney. But what I really remember is back to when my mom bought a surround system for our living room, I must have been like 10 years old or something. I was hooked! Sooo crappy system compared to today's, but still. I watched The phantom menace more specific the pod racing scene till my ears fell of 🙈 anyways the years went by and collectors editions and steelbook came and yee, now I am here 😁 a big movie fan with a soft spot for limited editions. Glad to be a part of the community 😊 hope to figure this all out. Instagram: 88_cave ( some pictures of the little cave …

Hello all. I’m new to this fine community. I come in search of many premium products, steelbooks and the like, and figured why not combine my monetary power with other likeminded folks? Enter the group buy, which is just the best thing ever. Who came up with this most excellent idea because I’d like to give them a slew of mental high fives. I haven’t done a group buy yet and am so keen to do so. I’ve been collecting for quite some time, throwing my extra funds into it kind of “seriously” for a few years now and look forward to getting some sweet new Manta Lab, Filmarena and the like type products through the application of glorious teamwork. I’m trying to determine w…

Wow! I'm thankful for everyone's warm welcome for this particular newbie. Thank you so much to all the MP members for making this community a friendly environment. I'm from the U.S. in the Seattle area, formerly home to the legend, Marshawn Lynch. My username is a play on his nickname (Beast Mode) because my name is William and a friend decided to call me Will-the-Beast one day which I suppose is a lot more creative than Will-I-Am. The nickname stuck and here we are. I have always been a fan of physical media since childhood, because I'm a sucker when companies go the extra effort to enhance the packaging, provide some additional goodies, and make …

Hello everyone. My brothers would send me some of their DVD and 4K collections and now am loving it. They warned me though not to get into group buys coz it will get bad😅😅😅 but here I am. Trying to take care of the ones they gave me and maybe start my own collection. How do you keep it nice and clean? I am looking into building a lil corner in my room so I can display it. Anyways, it's nice to find a community for it. Laters👋

I used to have a pretty good blu-ray collection many years ago and ran into tough times with life and sold most everything. The last few years have been good and turned things around so this year I've been focusing to grow my physical media and home theatre. I have yet to purchase my first premium release and I'm focused more on 4K UHD release steelbooks. Had a few good buddies point me to this site and nothing but strong good words for everyone involved. So I'm very excited to participate in Group buys and being a part of this awesome community. Thank you for the warm welcome!

Hey all, Long time steelbook collector (or sufferer depending on whether you're my wallet or not) checking in, recently became aware of MP through the LOTR group buy which sadly I didn't get on this round, but fortunately there's a WEET Gold in the works 😉 Thinking back, I think my first steelbook was either Scott Pilgrim vs The World or the Metal Gear Solid HD collection on PS3. Both take me right back to those early days! I now have a bookcase full, so I've clearly spent too much on the hobby but every time I think I've got everything I need, retailers have a way of releasing something I didn't even know I wanted! I'm sure you're all familiar with the feelin…

Hi everyone, I'm very excited to be a part of the community. Have done a bit of research into Premium steelbooks and I heard great things about MP. I wanted to join because I recently purchased a premium steelbook for a hefty price on eBay and I never want to do that ever again. 😅 Glad with the purchase but I'd like to get ahead of the game in future. Question for you all... "What's in the box?"

Hi everyone! I'm a few days late for introducing myself, but hello! I'm relatively new to collecting (I started last year with a WW steelbook when the pandemic started). I'm even newer to collecting premiums, so I only got my first premium a few months ago. However, I'm excited to get started! I've already joined a few group buys, and everyone has been pretty helpful so far! I'm looking forward to talking to everyone!

I'm sure many of you have seen me around the GB pages chiming with amusing gifs fit for every occasion. I got into SBs Christmas 2019 and soon after I fell into the darkside... that is premium sets.. annddd my wallet has hated me ever since... lol... I've always loved watching movies and so when I finally got a really nice Samsung 55" QLED tv and paired a 4k player to it along with a nice home theater system, I was like holy shite. I found out about the steelbook variant editions aside from those plastic cases and I just had to collect them all like Pokémons and heeree we are. When I joined last year, I lurked in the darkness then came out of my cave after I joined my fir…

I've been a member for a while but I'm just now deciding to get more involved. I applied for my first groupbuy today (the LOTR HDzeta set) and I'm pretty excited. It will be my first premium steel, but I have a small collection of regular steels. My favorite steelbook I own is probably Starship Troopers 4K. What's yours?

Hello everyone Im handyandy15 Ive been collecting steelbooks for a couple years now. Not sure how many I have exactly but it’s well over 50+. Some of your collections are insane. I recently found out about “premium” steelbooks and it has led me to this group. Looking forward to learning more about our crazy addiction and helping out whenever I can!
