--- Quote from: TDIRunner on December 01, 2014, 05:12:05 PM ---I found an unusual UGC a while back. The plastic was much thicker and it felt a lot stronger, but the outer dimensions were still the same as the current UGC. Also there was no sleeve, and there were no signs that it had ever had a sleeve (no markings from the original seam). I was able to add a sleeve using Wiggy's method and added it to my UGC collection. --- End quote --- I know mediashelving used to have the option to purchase the cases with and without the sleeve. Perhaps it was one of those |

Had to sleeve em all by hand. Got em from another user here. You can actually still get them last I checked. I used them to package RCG Gameboys and such really early on. The little extra thickness was just enough to squeeze the systems in without mashing the buttons and whatnot :) |

I bought them on Ebay. I didn't need very many, so I bought a lot of 18 for $20. The inside of the case is nearly identical to a standard UGC. It won't hold an NES cartridge as-is. They are also slightly shorter, which is why the top and bottom of the cover extend beyond the sleeve. |

Yep, looks like the original run of them. Appears to be the same as the black ones that i have |
