I opted for the Blu ray version of Season 1. I own all of new who on blu ray from Christopher Eccleston to Ncuti Gatwa. I'm also buying the classic seasons on blu ray. The only steel book I own is the 60th anniversary specials but I also bought a copy of the dvd version because I thought that the cover on the dvd and blu ray were better than the steel book. The picture quality on the blu ray is better than the dvd. I can understand why fans are buying the steelbook because they don't take up a lot of space on the shelves in their private collection.
Nice, you hit the nail on the head the space reduced by steelbooks is spot on. If not for that I would have just grabbed the blu rays and been satisfied but they have been so inconsistent in terms of sizes. Now I tell you what I am enjoying was last year’s David Tennant set that was released. I hope we get a Matt Smith set later this year.
The steel book is not worth the money. I bought the blu ray version. The front cover and back cover is also better than the steel book. When you take out the 7 discs on the inside you get the same 2 pictures of Gatwa and Gibson. Each disc contains photos from each story. The blu ray version is £10 cheaper than the steel book and the dvd version is £10 cheaper than the blu ray but the same cover front and back as the blu ray.
Yeah the discs and content are exactly the same you are only paying for steel book case, Now folks will grab this as they are always the same size and reduce the amount of space on the shelf, also steel books are know for rising in value over the years as they are more limited than the readily available standard blu ray set. I do need to check reviews of the standard set I’ve heard good things about it. What set did you stick to? Ta

Great steelbook, but for £60 I don’t think it’s worth it.
Thanks, yeah agreed would have liked a little cheaper, I guess it comes down to how you would like your collection to look weighing up the spend.
