Riptide steelcases A big thank you to Platfus + CrixDoomsday for helping!! Without whom it would not be possible.




By accident, I have discovered that the Riptide steels were made in 2 batches

They were of the same art of course, but had subtle differences.

The one on the left was from the Polish CE, whilst the one on the right was from the UK Zombie Bait edition.


The one on the left has a more silver sheen, while the one on the right was more bronze.

Polish closeup:



UK closeup (zombie hair looks more bronze):

PL Deep Silver logo is well, Silver:



UK logo is Bronze, the rain effect cuts through over the logo on the top left, while this does not happen on the PL steel.

Back view



Fine print for PL:
(sorry I was too lazy to remove the plastic cover)


Seems silvery.

Fine print for UK:


It says Austria, so I'm guessing Austria, UK and maybe other countries in EU might have gotten this version. The text also looks bronze-ish.

This probably means the distribution was varied across the globe.... main difference being the base ink of either silver or bronze...

There was a huge batch last year for preorders so leftovers were probably included in some CEs. Nothing goes to waste

Yeah the second batch was commissioned only a few weeks prior to release as they needed more xx

Nothing goes to waste, everything is saved.

lol Steelbook Creed


even though its easy to assume, i believe having a second commission might not be the reason for this

im starting to think the bronze ones are from zombie bait editions....

i just opened an AU zombie bait and it came with the bronze steelbook
