Boilersteel

Any ocd I ever had with steelbooks is now gone. Best Buy scratching, spine slashing, and denting nearly all steelbooks started me down the path of caring less. But now even if the steelbook survives Best Buy or another retailer's shipping, I still then have to worry about mother nature rusting the darn thing. Thank goodness most of my money is in premium cardboard that won't rust. 😅.

In the midwest so outside humidity is definitely an issue in summer. Just started monitoring the humidity with a hygrometer and reading 46-47% in the basement currently, so curently under 50%. Will have to keep an eye on it during the summer. I was reading that matte steelbooks tend to be more affected, so might be moving most of those upstairs at least temporarily until I find a specific cause and solution.

At one time this was in perfect condition. It was stored in a plastic case in a closet in the basement with humidity 46-47%. Maybe it was caused from the oils on my hands, although the steelbook was not touched more than a few times. It was a beauty before the rust, and difficult to see this happen. Also noticed a few others with tiny rust marks on the corners. Thankfully only a few, but definitely going to keep an eye on them and might move them to another location to see if that helps. Anybody else see this happen or have any ideas to prevent this. Will be using gloves from now on. I guess they are metal and will eventually rust but 3-4 years seems very early.

Saves me some time, as I won't have to post pics, although you are missing the sliced cardboard box I received, but maybe you lucked out and avoided that. 😄 Just think it could have been tiny images like on the Disney 100 series. At least this came with large colorful artwork on the front.

Dr. No

At least for now this is sold out from FNAC, never know if it will come back. Was a pretty incredible deal for Disney steelbooks. Came out to $17 per steelbook and that included shipping. FNAC did slice my cardboard box, but I can't read French, so wasn't that interested in the box anyway and didn't affect the steelbooks. For the price, the steelbooks are not that bad, will add some pics later tonight.

A View to a Kill?

Diamonds are Forever?

Haven't the slightest clue. Moonraker?

Here is my entry for the One Click Treasure Hunter award. Probably should have used a sharpie to write my username, but it is still just barely visible.🧐

@Basil and @Veum FNAC Casablanca is even cheaper than the Novamedia and comes with a fullslip and some goodies, fyi.

Dr. No?

Challenge 27: Thanks for the achievable challenge @Veum. (Foreign speaking films and the Razzies challenges seem to be beyond my reach) 1. Kill Bill v1 and 2 2. Mad Max Fury Road 3. The Punisher 4. V for Vendetta 5. The Dark Knight My favorites are the Batman movies. I can watch almost any Batman movie over and over again, except for Batman and Robin and Batman vs Superman Dawn of Justice. Those ones are pretty cringeworthy at times.

Casino Royale?

Spectre?

Die Another Day?

Unfortunately no, but that would have been incredible. I think the place had at least 5 other Bond pinball machines as well. Only got a few plays as we were really there for the kids, but I might sneak back sometime to spend some more time playing them. I have no clue on this one. What about Goldfinger?

Goldeneye? I did get to play this the other day around town, it was pretty awesome. Anyone have a spare $15,000. 😄

Challenge 26: No way I qualify yet for Challenge 25, so moving on to Challenge 26. Thank you @Mrdugan for the challenge idea! 1. Hunger Games, Katniss Everdeen, Jennifer Lawrence 2. Halloween, Laurie Strode, Jamie Lee Curtis 3. Alien, Ellen Ripley, Sigourney Weaver 4. Wonder Woman, Diana Prince, Gal Gadot 5. Black Widow, Natasha Romanoff, Scarlett Johansson My favorite female character and actress would be Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman. DC finally released an awesome film in Wonder Woman, but then botched the second release. She deserved better.

@Manticore4 congrats on the first win! Now you are up for posting the next frame.

After you join the club be sure to check out the GB Info and Questions section as there is a VET for this groupbuy. I almost missed seeing it, as I don't think there was anything mentioned about it except in that section (at least I didn't see anything about it). Hopefully, if anyone else missed seeing it, this will be a reminder.

Available to preorder from Zavvi US right now.

Actually, I am too weak. 😅

Even with the whole frame I wouldn't have gotten it. Still can't even remember what scene this was from and not sure what I am looking at. Nice one @R1s1ngs0n and congrats to @Manticore4!
