I was bummed out that the MVS Shockbox inserts almost always had the AES stylings to them, with the traditional AES logo (most often including the words "Advanced Entertainment System" on it).
To remedy this I decided to make variants of inserts using the MVS logo as found on the MVS carts, kit boxes and arcade cabinets themselves.

This is for anyone else who prefers seeing MVS on the spines of their MVS shockboxes. Hope you enjoy.
Some notes: There are a few games that have home version features advertised on the back of the box. I considered putting an asterisk and writing something below like "for use in home mode", but when I tried that it didn't look quite right, so instead I left those as they were.
Some inserts had some degree of discoloration, so I corrected those as best as I could. Some inserts had some artifacting or other various flaws from the scanning process, so I tried correcting those where possible as well. I also occasionally changed the screenshots of the boxes, either because the originals were too low res, or simply because I had something else in mind. Most of the credit goes to the original creators of some of those, or those who scanned the originals. I would like to do more in the future and I'd be happy if others took the style and applied it to any other games they'd like.
Let's make our MVS collections look like an MVS collections, and not dressing them up as AES games.
