    Just had this reply from steelbook central is response to the last three collections and their compatible cases…
    Season 15 and 25 already fit inside our DW2 Protectors. Season 20 unfortunately is the only one we do not have a perfect protector for. Some collectors have managed to fit inside our DW3 but that is without the cardboard J card I believe. We do have a loose fitting protector in our range called the SCF26, this will fit Season 20 for a loose fit.

      My S20 does fit DW3, even with the J card, but it’s a very snug fit. Others may not as the width of the spines on S2 and S20 vary, so I was just lucky to get one with a slimmer spine.

      I bought one DW3 to test the other week.

      As I display mine without J-cards I only just managed to squeeze my S20 into it.

      I need to buy another for S2 which fits fine but at least I can try it out once we get S1,3,4,5 and 6 too.

      Mad to think we’ve had 6 more seasons released since I took those photo’s in the article above though.

      I managed too tight squeeze my s20 aswell in the DW3 that especially when it arrived in bad condition from hmv but no majo damage lucky since then if I ever want too watch them I carefully take out the main dvd box set for the discs and booklet etc but keep the j card still sat inside too avoid more damage happening easy

    Please someone let us know when they get it, which one will fit S15. I need to order a few more, so I’ll wait until we know what size for S15.

      DW4 does fit it but it is ever so snug, best go for DW2

      what one for season 20

    • Rory

      April 2nd, 2024 - 9:30am

      @goody, my S20 fits into DW3 with a little wiggle room, but others’ may not. It seems some of the boxes have slightly wider spines. I had the same issue with S2, which had a spine so wide it split the J-card. I got a replacement with a slimmer spine and that actually fit DW2.

      tldr: DW3 maybe.

      I think we might have to wait for Steelbook Central to have some Sleeves made especially for Season 20 as it’s too large for any of the Existing Covers. (They had some made especially for Season 2 when that was released and there was nothing to fit it properly at the time).
      Has anyone heard if they have plans to make some more different size Sleeves?

    Not sure about others comments, have got all the respective protectors for the collection and cushing sets, season 20 is very snug, but the one for season 2, the DW3, it does for a sec look and feel like it won’t but I gently teased it and it just slid in like a glove, it should fit s20… mine has at least

    Hi there,
    I was just wondering if anyone could recommend a protector for the new Season 20 Dr Who Blu-ray limited edition collection.
    I thought that the protector for Season 2 would fit as this is also a 9 disc set but the new Season 20 seems wider so regrettably the DW3 protector does not fit.

    I bought enough for the entire collection (and spares).
    These are really good and make me feel more at ease, I was surprised how well they fit.
    Season 22 is the perfect size for the larger protector

    Can anyone please tell me which protective covers to order for the Blu-ray steel books with cardboard slip cases (e.g. the animations like Evil of the Daleks, Macra Terror et al)? I got the protective cases for the Collection boxsets and they are perfect (especially as I get mine autographed).

    got mine today, there ok, im not 100% sold on them, feel it may be a faff getting them out every time to view, dont like how shiny they are on spines and really do not like the small gap between season 24 & 26 where the box is slightly larger. but delivery was quick and they seem sturdy.

    Hi booboo.

    Got my protectors today.

    I’ll send some photo’s to you via the ‘contact us’ email address so that you can put them on here for others to see in case they are still on the fence about buying them.

    I don’t display mine with the j-cards as prefer to see the whole Doctor and Enemies image. But there is plenty of room for them.

    Thanks.

    I’d really recommend these. Prompt delivery and easy to use. I’ve just fitted them to all my box sets and they each fit really well (even the supposed loose fits still look absolutely fine on the shelf). Especially helpful if you get your sets autographed!

      Is the plastic clear (fully transparent so you can see full colour image of Season set) or is there a blue tint to it?

      Just checking before I buy. Thanks.

    • Charles :)

      April 18th, 2022 - 10:14am

      Hi daz, yes they’re completely clear! They are delivered with a peel-away protective covering. I also use their steelbook protectors, which are similarly well-recommended!

    Thanks for the heads up. Although I bought some last year, these being a ‘tighter’ fit will be much better for my display.

    When we eventually get some of the 60’s sets these are the only ones that wont fit if they are more than 8 discs. Hopefully they’ll design one to fit Season 2 when it is released too.

    Whats the difference with the seasons marked “loose fit”

    Reply
    • Gareth Pugh

      March 2nd, 2022 - 6:15pm

      Well, those 2 seasons’ boxes are the same width, so I’d guess it means that the protector boxes for those are ‘right’ for wider-spined season boxes like 14, 24 etc but have a bit of extra width / space inside with seasons 17 and 26. I suppose that matters if you like to have all your Collection box sets all tightly in a row – this would in effect leave some space/gaps between season 17 and 18, for example.

    • Anthony Fisher

      March 2nd, 2022 - 7:39pm

      If I’m not mistaken I’m sure the sets marked (loose fit) are the 7 disc sets so that’s probably why they are (loose fit)
      May consider getting these to keep them nice on the shelf
