I'm at the print house right now, placing the order!
I'm going to provide my PayPal info after I'm happy with their print quality.
For now I'm printing 200 of each console and see if they can cut it to the right size.
Covers are being printed for Xbox 360, Xbox One, PS3 and PS4.
Exciting times!!
Awesome! I was wondering if an amazon gift card will do? I could always email it to you
I have mine preordered at shopto as the steelbook comes free with the game.

Sure, but my pre-order from Simply via Rakuten is only £32. If it comes down to price VS steelbook, I'd rather have the cheaper price.
If I get desperate I might try a dodgy...order the PS3 version, keep the Steelbook and return/trade the game :/.

Incredible!
I'll probably take two of each if that's okay.
Figure one day I'll pick up MGSV for 360/One/PS3 used and throw these bad boys in their cases for uniformity on the shelf. Being that it's the last MGS game, I'll probably want all versions down the line.
Edit: would that be 50¢ per sheet? So like 4 bucks if I want 8 sheets? Not including shipping or packaging of course.

I don't think I've ever replaced a cover before but if any game warrants it, this would be the one. I'll grab a ps4 cover when you get it sorted out.
It's amazing you are doing this, I hope you don't get swamped.

Hey guys,
Thanks for being utterly patient with me in regards to the cover. I've looked at every option and I'm here to provide the cost breakdown:
- Cover printing: 25c per cover.
I've decided to cut the cost from 50c to 25c per cover. This will ensure folks that want multiple copies can do so with peace of mind. The minimum is 500 prints, but I don't actually mind if the price goes up if we don't meet 500 print mark. The printing company is: http://microforum.ca
- Shipping packaging: 50c per packaging.
Good packaging will ensure covers don't rip or bend during shipment, and the cheapest I could find is 50c a cover. I can't shave a penny here (It's actually a little higher than 50c a packaging but I can't charge you all more for it as it's quite lame to pay more for packaging than the intended content).
- Shipping cost (minimum): $2 for Canada. $3.50 for US, $6 for International per shipping.
This is the only area I'm having trouble chopping the cost. I'll gladly pay the additional cost for international from my pocket if folks cannot pay $6, so I'll keep the international rate at $3.50 as well. If Canadians want to be generous and pay $3.50, It'll compensate for international shipping very nicely. Remember: This doesn't include tracking and that'll cost A LOT OF MONEY, so I'll provide you personal updates whenever I ship them out. If you want tracking real bad then let me know and I'll accommodate accordingly.
- Total (estimate): $4.25 per shipment + additional 25c for any additional cover added to the shipment.
- TAX: The tax in Canada is 13% so I'll charge you all 13% because I'm paying that tax for shipping and printing and packaging and... OK JUST KIDDING. FUCK TAX. I'll gladly pay tax from my pocket lol.
- TIP: I don't actually need tip, but I would love it if everyone helps everyone out so that folks that cannot pay the entire cost can receive it with ease and peace of mind. I'll make sure every penny gets invested nicely, whether it be providing more covers or printing shipping labels or drinking loads of coffee while I package it, I'll provide cost breakdown for it all as necessary.
Thank you all, and thank you Kindekuma for the awesome cover art, and thank you Konami for the shitty practice that inspired us all to begin with! <3
P.S. I may throw in something special/rare for the top 3 most generous user.
P.P.S. I'll provide payment information or how to do it real soon. Seems like Paypal is what I'll be using. I'm going to place order for printing tomorrow so I can fire up the process.
Very interested. Keep us posted

Hi!
It's 25c per cover now. So 8 sheets would be $2 + shipping/packaging. Thanks!
Hi. I'll gladly accept Amazon gift card if that's your method of payment. Thank you.

No, apparently every single mission proudly lists the creators of this fine game.
I think Kinda Funny was saying that was going to change or heard that was up in the air for retail release.

Hey! Awesome! Your drive to do this made me get off my butt, so to speak, and hunt down my old PayPal info to be ready and waiting for the time when you tell us that they're ready to purchase!
Thanks for your efforts to preserve the Shinkawa nature of the MGSV Box art!
Yeah, I'll definitely take two of each and drop in an extra few bucks to help out!

Don't.
Konami's failings shouldn't undermine the work Hideo Kokima and Kojima Productions put into this game.

Haha! The covers are finally here! Pardon my shitty camera:
It looks so surreal seeing it in person!
I can't find my Xbox 360 games so I used the PC DVD box for illustration purposes. Seems like all sizes are good.

This is amazing! I would be interested in a PS4 cover if you can ship to Sweden, and if not all of them are reserved by others already. I don't think Paypal would work for me though. Would any other way work? Some kind of giftcard perhaps?

Maybe we could do a European collective order for covers, so it'll be easier on all our wallets!?

Oh, oh my. I'll definitely keep an eye out.
This is great, I really like it. Can I suggest one small edit?
Move Fox engine logo and Koji pro logo to the bottom left and right and use the negative space just like the rest.
