The light blue one showing the sky was a FutureShop exclusive as far as I know.

It is not thaaaaat hard to find one but damn they're expensive. So I won't say it's within the Top 10 most rare steelbooks.

In my opinion it's not the price which makes a steelbook really rare (ofc it's definitely a good way get an idea of how rare it is). It's more finding a mint copy of the steel.

For example, it took me about 10 months to find a truly mint copy of the Dead Rising 2 Xbox 360 G1 steelbook. There are plenty auctions for this on ebay for a few bucks but finding a mint one was a real struggle.

Yeah it's a one of the jewels in my collection, having it graded makes it all the sweeter.

There's one on ebay atm, not sealed though unfortunately http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Mass-Effec...item418f29ddcf

There were brand new ones on eBay for ~$80-$90 for a long time before. This is a rare one but not as rare as the Dutch steelbooks/stickerbooks

Yeah there were a few available not to long back, seem to have been snapped up now though. No idea how many there were made. I thought I read somewhere that the people who make steelbooks wont do less than 5000 though.....Makes me wonder where all those Mirror's Edge ones are if that's the case......I want one of those

Maybe the 5000 print run is only for some companies. I found an article about low print run movie steelbooks, the lowest print run is 50. I don't think mirror's edge is this low, but it should be around 1000-2000 I think.

Here's the link to the thread: http://www.hidefninja.com/community/...nt-runs.32262/

I paid $200 for the Mirror's Edge. But it is worth the money, such a beautiful steelbook.
