The Rise of a new UGC :)

That being said, how has no one made this request in 6 pages...
SEGA CD/SATURN LONGBOXES
My KINGDOM for a longbox replacement! That's another one that you could easily just cast a mold for and replace, and they look *SO* *SO* NICE
Don't get me wrong -- I will buy 50-100 of damn near any box you make, because I'm all over the place on collecting and the casing bug has bit me but hard, but while there are other people talking about making replacement cases for lots of these systems, I have yet to hear of anyone looking to make a longbox replacement

Probably because we should move one step at a time! Looks like replacement Sega Genesis cases may finally be produced. Something like Sega CD/Saturn cases could be a good next step. The Sega community/collectors have been completely deprived for a source of both Genesis and CD/Saturn replacement cases, and it is about time someone took care of it. Plus once we see just how well these Genesis cases will do, maybe it will open up everyone's eyes to the potential these things could have.
And much like my opinion of the Genesis replacement cases, they should be copies of the originals. Again, with these having so much more potential to gain serious popularity outside of the cover project, these Sega cases should be altered as little as possible to appeal to everyone, and not just us here at TCP. UGC's and other custom cases, customize away! Sega cases should be left as they are, to start off at least...

Sega Saturn/SEGA CD cases are very desirable but are also likely to be the most expensive and hardest to make as they are made up of three parts. It's unlikely anyone will be able to produce those in an economical fashion. They also break easy in shipping. I wouldn't ask anyone who isn't filthy rich to make those. An extremely high volume would need to be bought and sold to make a profit.
Arseen:
Hence I want Elongaded DVD cases.
Either two sizes where one is Sega CD size and one that holds Saturn size Manuals, Or just one size that holds even the biggest size Sega CD manuals.

Yes, but a DVD style clamshell, Saturn sized would be do-able......

What color are we talking here? I would love the idea of Saturn/Sega CD style cases, but I'm not interested unless they look like the original clear jewel cases. Otherwise, I would just stick with DVD cases for those systems. It's a good point though.
