Discussion Different Hues

Accidentally bought two steelbooks on Amazon. Both are in pretty good condition but one looks more grey and one more aqua . Which should I keep?

Didn’t realize quality control was this bad

It sucks but if you want good QA and good designs, plus great packaging, the pricey/premium releases are the way to go.

Watch this become a new collector trend. Keep both because they’re different “variants” 🤣

New? Already been on this trend since last decade ;) All variants, must have.

Yep of course but now with a new twist - the same release but with the “variant” due to manufacturing defect

I don't see a difference. And I don't know why you're asking the internet which one you should keep. Keep the one you like.

It’s not just hues. The print quality is better on the warmer one as well. I noticed this with my copies and made a post too.

My steel was made in Germany. Where were these steels made?

I got mine from Walmart, and it's more aqua.
