MD Game Covers Scan Request

[VenomMacbeth]

So I've been buying bootleg Mega Drive carts lately, as they're very affordable compared to their genuine counterparts.  The problem is, I only collect games with cases.  I've printed a couple covers for games I've bought, but so far I've only found good scans for Musha Aleste and Castlevania Bloodlines.  I need good-quality scans of the covers for the following games:

Advanced Busterhawk Gley Lancer
Panorama Cotton
V-V (V-Five/Grind Stormer)
Vampire Killer
Contra: The Hard Corps

I'm not trying to sell bootlegged cased copies or anything like that.  Hell, you could even put a watermark on it it, though preferably somewhere unobtrusive.  Can anyone lend me a hand or am I SOL?

Here are a bunch of nice Genesis/MD covers:

wouldn't an everdrive be cheaper than buying bootleg carts??

Why yes.  It would.

There appear to be a shit-load of bootleg 'genesis' carts on ebay right now
Stuff that was never released outside of the Japan scene, but re-packeged to look extremely authentic:

Advanced Busterhawk Gley Lancer
Panorama Cotton
V-V (V-Five/Grind Stormer)
Vampire Killer
Contra: The Hard Corps

The ones above that you quoted, along with Eliminate Down etc.
Why would you need Vampire Killer cover ?   
Isn't the Castlevania Bloodlines, you already have, the same game?
(there's a very obnoxious odour on this thread)
Bootleggers, scum of the galaxy.

I do, but I'm tempted to get rid of it in favor of a Vampire Killer boot, especially since the label on my copy of Bloodlines is a bit ratty.  And I know the ones you're talking about (the Japanese MD games with US genesis style packaging?)  I'm looking for the Japanese cover art.  I'm not even printing them on glossy paper, just regular printer paper.  I'm not changing the labels either, and trust me, they very obviously not the official labels.  Anybody with a brain stem could see that these are bootlegs from a mile away, even with the "custom" cases.

On these boots are they using eproms or flash chips? I think I asked around somewhere before but never got a reply. I was curious about that, and the build quality on them.

$99.99 good enough for ya ?


Seriously, how are they getting away with this obvious organised crime on ebay ??

I'm not really sure how to tell, but I'll crack one open & take a picture for you here shortly.

Where can one purchase a mega everdrive ?

Any updates on pics of the insides yet? Still curious.

Oops!  It completely slipped my mind.  Here ya go:





Sorry for the bad quality.  This is Panorama Cotton, by the way.

Wow, glob tops instead of burned chips, color me impressed.  I bet the PCBs are new then too.

Ditto. I expected some pretty weak quality work. Looks like pro factory job instead.
