I've just received the boxes for the Qb special edition, and have some pictures to show...

These show the unpainted box (it will be painted either green, yellow or red, reflecting the background colours used in the game for next level, loss of life, end of game). On top of the box are rare-wood squares, which will be varnished and in random pattern. These represent the game itself. There will also be a gold/brass serial number on the box lid, looking like a score.

Inside the box you see a CD in case, '2600 cartridge, and under those is a manual. This is a final-stage mockup, in that I'm awaiting the cartridges from Hozer, and final printing of manual, etc. But in essence, all ready to go.

Those who have preordered should contact me about arranging payment now. adavie@atari2600.org.

Wow, those boxes are going to be pretty cool once you get them painted! I'm looking forward to seeing pictures of the finished boxes! How much time do you think you'll end up spending on each individual box?

Thanks for sharing!

Not a lot. An hour or so. I'm very pleased with the results, by the way - I had them specially commissioned from a disabled workshop. They cost me a fortune, but I guess it makes them special, after all.

Cheers

I searched around through my browser cache and was able to find all three files. I've put them up on AtariAge, so they should load fine:

Enjoy,
