This is what I'm talking about, that search give GAME boxes results, not console. But it's the idea of what I'm saying, there is plenty of ready-to-print game boxes, but none for console boxes.

I don't know what to say...


Sorry for my weird english

There are no decent sources for box scans because almost no console box actually fits inside a scanner.

Even an office copier wouldn't be enough for everything (plus those have worse quality too).

Some high quality photos might work then, then put all together using Photoshop.

Not really. lmgtfyi wiseass ironically pretty much proved it. Repro console boxes do exist though. I helped a chink do the polybead packing for a "CIB" sale last year. Are you looking for that level of detail or just boxes?
I like the concept though. I have lots of loose consoles and never even thought to do boxes for them. It might be a bit of a waste of space but would keep them away from dust and the yellow face. Putting a picture on the box would just make it easier identify them.
I have boxes I can scan for most jap consoles. Not so much for muhricun but probably know people who do.
BTW, no animals were harmed in the fake CIB sale. Just a scumbag collector that ranks far below amoeba on the evolutionary tree.

>polybead
Is this what you meant? (I'm not native english speaker so I don't know what the word is refering to)
Also, I though of making cardboard reproductions of the inside packaging, like the one that uses Sega Genesis, or Wii, but I think the most simmilar to the original the better. Anyway, I think the hardest part is get the scans/photos to make the digital part of the work. If you can get from you boxes, trying to have the same light I could make a PDF ready to print, and share my boxes, so what do you think?

>>3761634
Yes that's the stuff. You don't want to use it unless you have to. It's shit.
Cardboard is better but more work. You'll have to come up with your own template because most consoles came with above shit.
I'm not to bothered about the art. I can scan what I have if I need. A sticker with the name/model of the console is fine for me. I understand you want better. I'll help where I can.
The material is the problem. Once you ditch polybeads you need cardboard that can hold up the structure. I don't have the kit to do that at home. We buy our boxes and shit from another factory that specializes in that. I'm not sure exactly how it's made. Was to busy getting sucked off by the translator during the tour. I'll have another visit to see how it's done but everythings closed down for a week while chinks do their new year shit.
