Anyone know of a good seller who has a good variety for sale, on a continous basis? Or who makes them per request? Ive tried this for myself but i never am happy with the result, so id like to check other options.

Ive noticed the few reproduction webshops rarely sell "CIB", just cart and label, so any help would be apriciated. 

I had a video favourite on youtube from a person with an australian accent, who said he would make on request, but that video has since turned "Private" and i can no longer see who this person is. I mention it in case he might be known in the nintendo scene. He provided maps, manuals and good quality card boxes which looked really well made and "authentic" with the right logos, fake (i assume) pincodes etc..

So share your knowledge with me and id apriciate it!

Thanks and regard,
grimm

If you or anyone else needs help with reproductions via carts, boxes, manuals, maps, etc. please contact me. I can help get you directed to where you need to go.

The seller you are referring to on youtube from Australia is known as WickedClownNZ.

There is also a seller, timewalkgames.com, who makes CIB reproduction boxes for SNES. You can also get reproduction boxes for SNES from uncletusk here on NA via his website: http://www.uncletusk.com/...

fsped09 is also a member here on NA who can do repro boxes and would be happy to help you make a custom SNES box if there was on in particular you needed.

So if you need more resources then that, I would be very happy to help out. In the meantime, please check the link in my signature to the NA thread: "Custom Repro Companies and Websites" to help guide you in the right direction for any reproduction needs you may have.

-------------------------

If anyone is LOOKING for certain repro/homebrews, I have a running repro company thread going as well as a lot of extras myself which include Limited Editions as well.  I'm also free to help answer questions and point people in the right direction so never hesitate to ask!  Here is the current list of repro companies.  Please let me know if I need to update it:

Thanks gwyndion, i dont understand why that page didnt come up when i searched for repro and reproduction...?

You've put together alot of places there, sadly not too many have actual boxes up for sale, but i suppose its a start, to ask them if they can help out.

Hey Grimm, both uncle tusk and I have just boxes on our sites. I'm sure if you give a little more info about what you're looking for, we could help out.

I can vouch for the boxes from this site being amazing and fantastic.  Uncle Tusk did my Frogger box and fsped09 did my Sneak 'n Peek box.  They're both great!

That sounds good, i am mainly looking for a Secrets of Mana 2 box, map and manual for WHEN ive actually bought the game, but it would need the PAL/Europe "template", also looking for the same for Star Ocean. But since my finances are abit low right now, ive simply just started looking at sources for now. I want to have the games secured and in my posession before i go get boxes, unless of course, they can be supplied with a pal/sfc cartridge cased game.

Can you also supply a label to match your box-art, in pal/sfc cart size, if you can only make me a box, manual and map?  It would be nice with a matching label, naturally!

Yes, there's a few of out there that can make boxes. We all do great work. Just depends what you're looking for.

We spoke through email I believe already. If you can find artwork of any kind I can make you a box. I'm sure it's the same with the other guys. I just don't like to put out just any box, manual, art. etc.

That mustve been a long time ago, i dont even remember talking to someone about boxes. And basically what i would look for would be something inspired by the japanese originals, with artistic freedom as required. Just need to look OEM to fit with the authentic games really. Im not too specific about the artwork, i recognize im not the artist!

Anyone new doing this? Seems like UncleTusk is the only really reliable box guy going right now, and he doesn't have some of my needed items (namely Star Ocean)...

ETA: Saw above that he takes requests... Going to follow-up.
