Keith Courage game box...

jelloslug · 04/01/2014, 02:08 PM

Number one is where it's at.

Psycho Punch · 04/01/2014, 02:35 PM

1st but without "16 bit graphics" text. Much more in line with the style of 1st gen turbo games. Other than that it couldn't be more legit.

csgx1 · 04/01/2014, 02:50 PM

Both look awesome! I think I like the first one a bit more.

MotherGunner · 04/01/2014, 05:20 PM

First Bro. They are both nice though!

Bklyn4ever · 04/01/2014, 05:41 PM

I also agree with what seems to be the general consensus. The 1st option!

esteban · 04/01/2014, 06:11 PM

The TOP one has the best "front cover", the back of #2 is really nice (one large screenshot), but on older boxes, I believe it was 4 equal-sized screenshots (as the TOP one has). So, the TOP is most authentic.

Anyway, both boxes are designed fantastically. I love 'em. If I had to choose only one, it would be TOP.

Sparky · 04/01/2014, 10:03 PM

Alright will go with the first one

also I will change out the "16 bit graphics" to just "adventure" like the original boxes have.

Thanks guys.. I am going to see how much 50 would cost me to print, cut and score by my local printer going digital. Will let you guys know.

Dibbs! You know, if you hadn't procrastinated you could have mailed me one of these last week and avoided the insane Canada Post fee hikes.

Mathius · 04/01/2014, 10:51 PM

Sign me up for one. Still really like the 2nd one.

HailingTheThings · 04/01/2014, 11:03 PM

Definitely, like for sure put me down for one, like alot-alot. :3

Miracle_Warrior · 04/02/2014, 08:24 AM

Looking good Sparky. Having zero talent when it comes to stuff like this myself, I wouldn't be in any place to offer you any constructive feedback.

glazball · 04/02/2014, 01:32 PM

My vote also goes to the first. Really looks nice Sparky! I'm curious as to why you've shortened the title though? I've always thought "Keith Courage" was just a familiar, informal title.

For instance, if you were making similar boxes for other systems, you'd want it to read "Alex Kidd in Miracle World" instead of simply "Alex Kidd" (because there are 4 US Alex Kidd games) or "Super Mario Bros." instead of "Mario" or "Mario Bros."

ooops, good call, i forgot to change it to the full name... Thanks Glaze!!!

Miracle_Warrior · 04/02/2014, 05:38 PM

Sparky, have you ever considered developing boxes for PC Engine games? I would be happy to help out with a project like that.

roflmao · 04/02/2014, 10:34 PM

These are so cool, Sparky! I'll take dibs on one if they get made.

warpig227 · 04/03/2014, 01:51 AM

really good job !

gamerslife · 04/03/2014, 02:03 AM

thats honestly a great looking box, and i say simple spine with the full name on front and back. either way really cool mock-up

cr8zykuban0 · 04/09/2014, 12:24 AM

Looks nice sparky!!!

TheClash603 · 04/09/2014, 12:46 AM

Count me in!

Sparky · 04/11/2014, 04:51 PM

see my first post on pricing my friends.
Let me know what you think.

Sparky · 04/11/2014, 04:59 PM

Quote from: Nulltard on 04/11/2014, 04:54 PMPricing seems very fair! When you get these in stock, i call dibs on at least one! ( :

cool, i will number each box as it comes off the press for rarity purposes. ha

jtucci31 · 04/11/2014, 05:10 PM

I would be interested as well. And you said you might throw in stickers as well? Seems like a nice deal

Nazi NecroPhile · 04/11/2014, 05:14 PM

Pricing looks okay to me. Sign me up!

IrishNinja · 04/11/2014, 05:20 PM

awesome, count me in for one! gonna hit up Mzo & Bishopcruz soon to see if they wanna pool together & save on shipping.

HailingTheThings · 04/11/2014, 05:25 PM

Pricing sounds good. *thumbs uppuh*

IrishNinja · 04/11/2014, 05:30 PM

:lol:Hailing, i've been meaning to ask - what's going on in your sig there?

Bklyn4ever · 04/11/2014, 05:54 PM

You can count me in also!

esteban · 04/11/2014, 06:20 PM

I will absolutely get a damn box.

CrackTiger · 04/11/2014, 08:56 PM

I'd like to buy the faithful original style (if both are being printed) box.

jelloslug · 04/11/2014, 09:45 PM

It's a pwecious widdle kitty cat....that happens...to...beeee....uhhh....ummm.....Catholic, yeah, that's it...umm Catholic! Yeah! She's commenting on the fact that everyone here is a butt, but that it's okay, because you all smell so good. K? K.

FiftyQuid · 04/11/2014, 11:54 PM

I'll take one Sparky. Hell, I'll even buy whatever you have remaining if it encourages you to make up a MC box.

As long as it doesn't greatly impact my pinball savings account.

tg16manaic · 04/12/2014, 02:13 AM

Looks awesome Sparky!!! I'll take one. I would be down for a MC box as well

Miracle_Warrior · 04/13/2014, 12:32 PM

The pricing is more than fair Sparky. I'd take one of these and an MC box if you do decide to do a run of those.

csgx1 · 04/13/2014, 02:26 PM

Looks awesome! Reasonably priced. I'm definitely interested.

TheClash603 · 04/13/2014, 06:23 PM

As I have a few Keith Courage, I might need to buy more than one box at that price. Now that the full name is on the box, it looks REALLY sharp!

LostFlunky · 04/13/2014, 09:03 PM

Please put me down for one... Now if someone talented would just make repro-styrofoam inserts...

Sparky · 04/13/2014, 10:19 PM

Thanks guys for your replys, I will keep the price as low as I can.
Looking like I will go with the 50 printed. I will get this going and show the end results.

Thanks again

roflmao · 04/14/2014, 10:18 PM

Yep, I still want one! Awesome that you're getting these made.

Mathius · 04/14/2014, 10:48 PM

Your prices are super reasonable for such a cool looking piece of art. I want one please.

mrhaboobi · 04/18/2014, 04:30 PM

Looking awesome, personally like the second box more, but the option u are going with is more in line with what it would have been so that's cool, put me down for two and a MC box if that happens

jordan_hillman · 04/18/2014, 09:02 PM

Absolutely gorgeous!!!

cr8zykuban0 · 04/22/2014, 02:32 AM

Man, that box looks badass. Would be nice to have that on the shelf!

Duo_R · 04/22/2014, 12:02 PM

Looks awesome, will buy one

T2KFreeker · 04/22/2014, 10:31 PM

Hey Sparky! See what happens when I am gone and come back again after a long respite? Those boxes look amazing. Very cool and would look awesome in anyone's collection. As usual, you have outdone yourself man!

Sparky · 04/22/2014, 11:18 PM

It's going to happen guys... Just need to refine the die line and do some final production on the artwork, $500 out of my own wallet I need to double check things

The MC will happen next... As long as this one works out.

Damn, I'll buy more than one if you are concerned about breaking even.
