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): ![]()

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...

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
