Mam, sorry late response.
Yes, G1 is DVD sized Steelbook, At the level of how the film achieved critical success and how weird and hard it was to obtain one during its release date (it took me weeks and 120miles of driving to luckily get one).
bottomline: ITS EXTREMELY RARE
congrats getting one!
Thanks! I guess I just got lucky.
I got another one of those G1 steelbooks -
The Twilight Saga: New Moon. It arrived in the mail today:
I didn't know it's an embossed SteelBook. It's beautiful! I never realized just how nice it is until I got to see the real thing (it looked meh in the photos). I didn't want this at first because I didn't really like the movie, so it's quite a pleasant surprise to see it embossed and all. Overall, I have no regrets as I got it for only $21 and it is really beautiful!
Only gripe I have is that it is in G1 packaging.
On a positive note, now my Hurt Locker won't be sticking out like a sore thumb in my shelf - may ka-partner na sya.
