Do you separate your Steelbooks from your Collection? - Blu-ray Forum

TheBluRayBandito · 11-15-2021, 02:09 AM

I’m not a avid buyer, but I have over a dozen. I just decided to separate them from my regular collection. Half of them are still in the wrap, and I own other versions for some.

I personally don’t. They’re in semi-sorta alphabetical order in with the rest of my collection

I do have a separate stand for steelbooks... but I also have some mixed in within other genres (horror, comedy, war/western, etc)

mysticwaterfall · 11-15-2021, 03:05 AM

I seperare by format but otherwise the steelbooks are mixed in.

Jay H. · 11-15-2021, 03:31 AM

I don't separate them, and I don't leave any Blu-ray in the shrinkwrap.

FlamedLiquid · 11-15-2021, 03:33 AM

I don't separate mine. I've thought about it but its easier just keeping them with everything in alphabetical order.

Abdrewes · 11-15-2021, 03:35 AM

I'd like to separate them from my collection entirely.

NeoTechnicJ · 11-15-2021, 05:52 AM

Yes, but only because I either put them in malko cases which makes them stick out more or keep them in the decorative metal case they came in (Hobbit, Lotr, rambo, got). The only non steels I have in malko cases are my 4k Star Wars movies in order to protect the slips (which are critical for Last Jedi, Rise of Skywalker and Solo to match the others).

Canada · 11-15-2021, 05:56 AM

I have so few that I just mix em' in

Hellboy · 11-15-2021, 06:45 AM

I don’t separate them. All my movies are alphabetically organized and divided by genre. The way it used to be when you browsed a video store. Guess I’m old school in that way. Packaging of any kind isn’t a factor.

(W)KRP · 11-15-2021, 07:37 AM

First by boutique label, then by packaging.

CtrlCtrlFast · 11-15-2021, 08:49 AM

not unless its a double dip

Threat · 11-15-2021, 09:18 AM

I only have steelbooks, lol. Very few are other format.

Gizz · 11-15-2021, 09:54 AM

Yes I have mine on separate bookcase. However my 4K steelbooks start off my 4k collection and my Doctor Who steelbooks are with my Doctor Who collection.

CreasyBear · 11-15-2021, 10:49 AM

Yes, they're all in a separate section, in their shiny little cases. I'm not a monster.

Blu Lemmy · 11-15-2021, 10:56 AM

Separate as are TV shows, 4K's, No slip Blus, Slip Blus and Box sets

Better in Blu · 11-15-2021, 11:32 AM

I have over 150 in my collection, and all are separate on different shelves.

heavyharmonies · 11-15-2021, 01:35 PM

I recently switched things up. I'm now only really actively collecting (1) 3D Blu-Rays, and (2) 4K steelbooks. Everything else is a rapidly diminishing proportion of my collection. So I separate and display those sections separately, and then music performance blu-ray/4K/DVD in its own section. I find this more useful than everything together in a single alphabetical order.

henry00x · 11-15-2021, 03:15 PM

absolutely yes, i have an entire billy bookcase from ikea just dedicated to steelbooks separate from my other movies

been collecting for about 12 years now so as you can imagine its pretty much full at this point

imsounoriginal · 11-15-2021, 05:33 PM
