I had received Lunar 1 and 2 as part of a Sega CD lot I won, and unfortunately Lunar 2 showed up without the spine card/rear cover. It wasn't mentioned in the ad, or shown in the photos and the seller said "I never had those parts. Thanks!" I didn't feel like making a big deal out of it so I found a scan of the art and printed it out. I'll probably do it again with a nicer printer, adjust the color to match the cover art and fix the scaling a bit so it fits better, but this will do for now. At least I can read which game it is when it's up on the shelf.







Oh, and don't forget my boxed NTSC Stadium Events. It's the special black vs. white edition

Looks good... I hate having missing spine artwork on CD games.

For the SE, did you just print the individual sides and glue them to something? it's hard to tell from your pic... but I'd be careful reproducing boxes for shit like that. A lot of people will get really butthurt and whine about it.

Thanks! Yeah me too, It was bugging the crap out of me and I couldn't enjoy the game on the shelf with it missing.

For the Stadium Events I actually printed flaps and everything for it and folded it together like a real box. The art, and the graphics are very obvious reproductions, done incorrectly on purpose. I'm not even into SE collecting and I know that the original doesn't have a black guy on it The "Stadium Events" font is wrong, the spine graphics are wrong, and the front runner should be white as snow with a pink shirt. also the "fun" in family fun fitness shouldn't have a stroke around it, and all of that text is wrong. And the screenshot of the game on the front is wrong as well.

I finally found some genuine artwork for this game... Cost me a lot though. I wish I would have made a bigger stink to the original seller. Oh well!
