Has anyone noticed this about the shockbox??

[BlackFlag]

For the later production and newer shockboxes, I noticed that there are variations in the vinyl used -- particularly the outer vinyl of the shockbox that protects the insert. The games around 1996 use more non-transparent cover and the texture of the material is also different. I noticed this on my KOF95 Jap version and Samurai Shodown3 Jap version. Has anyone noticed this??? The black plastic design/material of the shockbox appears to be same though.

Do you mean shockbox or snaplock case? If you do mean shockbox, the BigBear version is noticeably lighter than the JasenHicks version.

I advise you to get out of the house for a bit.

shockbox -- an unofficial case for MVS games designed by Big Bear
AES case -- the original vinyl based AES cases
AES clamshell -- the new sexy AES cases

snapbox -- nothing at all
