I picked the one that was the least objectionable. I like Viva boxes, but I'm not sure if I'll keep it yet. For those of you who have opened it, does the metal seem flimsier than normal?

I have nothing against Viva Metal Boxes, but the quality isn't there with this release. I went to 2 Targets to compare the cases, and neither had any in perfect condition. For whatever reason, the front of the cases all had minor dings on the bottom, and the creases near the spine were visible; these are definitely factory manufacturing defects. For $10 or less, I could live with these imperfections, but not at $20. I'm going to return my copy for a refund.
