TurboGrafx 16 "Gift Card Case"

[sheep2001]

long overdue, but this thread getting bumped reminded me to take some snaps of my mini DVD cases for Turbografx:

1 - on shelf next to vita cases


2 - inside case - card held by manual clips


3 - size comparison to DVD case


@shenske - i am guessing yours are pretty similar, if not the same?

oh and also @shenske - that naked vita case in the first pic, houses my AR cards.  hint hint.

Seymor Onion---Looks real good, we may need to update these when I get the template done since I made a few small changes to the rear fonts
I can also render out some of the turbo font in better quality possibly.(edit: refering to 8dp covers)

sheep2001---Awesome, thanks for sharing the photos. Vary cool use of the covers.  

I may have to get some of these cases. hmm those would be kinda neat for gamecube games.

[shenske]

Oh yeah, forgot about this. I'll snap a few pictures.  

@sheep2001
Pretty similar case in size but mine are meant for gift cards.  It fits the game cards perfectly.
I made a reverse side print with the TurboGrafX logo behind where the card is placed.






EDIT: Oh yeah! The AR cards, haha ... about that. I'll have some free time next week, i'll see what i can do

That would be awesome. I remember asking you about a while back!

@Shenske - those cases look great.  where do you get them?

I've got my 3DS AR Cards in one of those giftcard cases! I just haven't gotten around to making a cover for them yet.

@Shenske - those cases look great.  where do you get them?

They were a discontinued gift card case from gamestop here in the USA. I had to get them shipped from stores all over my state to get enough. I havent ever shown them do to their obscurity and how hard they are to find.

bugger! 

i guess i'll stick with my mini dvd cases.

The store I got them from, Hastings Entertainment, keeps them in regularly. You might check if they have any locations near you.

[Seymor Onion]

If you all would like me to look into placing a bulk order for the Gift Card Cases, I'll need the manufacturer's name.
It's probably on the inside of the case, on the spine, somewhere.
I'll also need to know how much Hastings Entertainment sells them for, in their stores, so I can make sure to get a better deal for us.

I can drive out to the Hastings Entertainment, in Lake Jackson, and get one of their Gift Card Cases,
myself, but the closest one is a 2 hour drive (round trip) and I'd like to avoid that,
if it's at all possible.

They're made by seastone. I tried finding them online when I first had the idea, but with no luck (which is why I never posted about them)

Edit: Oh, and I think they're $2 a piece, IIRC

Edit 2: Might have been $1. One or the other. Bad memory and awake about 24 hours. Goodnight.

[Seymor Onion]

If I come up empty with the google, there's still some other avenues open to me to find manufacturers. 

[Seymor Onion]

Found Them! 
Just sent them a quote request.

omg! where did you get those?
As for the 8 disc cases, they would be perfect for Gameboy games......but what about NES games? I do not want to carve-out a bunch of UGC for NES games
