Just started a Vectrex collection and I have 3 boxes:
Armor Attack
Scramble
Solar Quest
All have varying degrees of condition, but I think the main game image and logos are intact.
Once I get a new scanner, they will go to the top of my scanning queue.

All my Vectrex boxes are now scanned (see my raw scan thread in my signature). There's 11 games in total.

I have downloaded the art for some of my Jaguar games and am excited to go print them, but I'm not sure what the dimensions should be. I'm thinking I need to take these into photoshop and set them to a certain size so that printing is easy-peasy, but I can't seem to locate those dimensions. Can anyone help?

Dimensions are 3366 by 2100.
All our covers are sized to fit UGCs as is.
Few tip for printing:
1. Check the DPI if it says 300 all is as it should be.
2. Before printing, open the file in MS Paint and go to File > Page Setup.
3. Change paper size from "Letter" to "Legal".
4. Set orientation to "Landscape".
5. Centering horizontal/vertical is optional. Scale to 100% of normal size. Leave the margins as defaults.
6. If at step 1 the DPI was 96 use scale 32, if it was 72 use scale 24.
7. Make sure that fit to page is off.
There's a preview image on the Page Setup window showing a white box (the page) with a dotted line (the margin) and a gray box with an X reaching from corner to corner. The gray box represents your image. As long as it shows within the margin area, it should print just fine.
Add to that:
These instructions apply to all approved covers and nearly all the ones found on boards.
