UPDATE: THANK YOU EVERYONE FOR THE MASSIVE INTEREST. UNFORTUNATELY, I AM NOT SHIPPING THESE ANYMORE AS I WOULD NOT WANT TO PRINT THESE ANY FURTHER. ALL FURTHER PAYMENTS WILL BE REFUNDED BACK. THANKS FOR UNDERSTANDING!

This was a fun experiment, and I had fun serving you all.

Hi Everyone,
I've been working on a little something with a help of fellow gaffers. Let's be straight up: a lot of us do not like the new Metal Gear Solid boxart, especially since it's missing "A Hideo Kojima Game" and all the credit Kojima Productions deserves. I've been vocal about it and I know a lot of you have been a lot more vocal about it.
Act I. The Idea:
Fellow NeoGAFfer Kindekuma designed a really awesome cover art that a lot of us like and appreciate. I decided to volunteer and get them printed for everyone to receive. I've printed only 2000 of these, 500 for each console (PS3, PS4, Xbox 360 and Xbox One) so these are quite limited. Furthermore, everyone is more than welcome to print these themselves if they have the means to do so. These covers are inch perfect to fit your desired casing. Note: Xbox 360 cover will also fit PC DVD Cover.
Act II: The Inception:
I've purchased everything needed, from the prints to the packaging. All I need to do is ship them out to your desired location. I'm not making a penny out of this because I love the idea of the community working towards a unified goal without feeling ripped off.
Here's what the final product looks like:
Act III: Frequently Asked Questions: UPDATED SEPTEMBER 2015
- How do I add the PS/Xbox logo on the covers?
-- Download the PDF files linked here: http://garymotherpuckingoak.deviantart.com/art/MGSV-PHANTOM-PAIN-Shinkawa-Cover-Fan-Made-546249708 , open in Photoshop and unhide the logo layers.
- What paper should I use?
-- 80lb or 60lb cover/photo stock is the preferred paper here. Make sure you have laser printer as inkjet may not print it that well.
- Is there any room for the bleeds in the PDF cover?
-- No. You will have to make sure you have room for bleeds, and cut accordingly. If needed, you can create bleeds as per your printing company preference/requirement.
- Are you going to be printing more covers?
-- Unfortunately, No. Thanks for the interest, and sorry for the lack of further support.
- What's your current stock count?
-- All stocks have been depleted. I won't be printing them any further.
- Have you shipped my order yet?
-- All orders are shipped as of August 24th. There are some folks who still haven't received it. I hope you all receive it soon!! There are folks who's order was the first to be shipped (August 18th and August 19th) but they haven't received it yet, and I'm sorry for that! I hope that package finds a way!
- When should I start panicking about my orders?
-- Please give it another week or two if your package doesn't arrive. I hope Canada Post get their shit together and start driving faster. Please PM me if you don't get your package by 4th of September and I'll accommodate accordingly.
- How do I repay you?
-- Add me on PSN and save my FOB base from being invaded by enemies and combatants! PSN ID: shagg_187
------------------------------
Seriously. Thank you all for being part of something fun and exciting. I'll try to respond to all PMs and emails! Thank you all, and keep on sneaking! <3
Thank you all for the encouragement to do this, thank you to Kindemuka for the cover design, and thank you Kojima for inspiring us all.
