It seems every PGM cart I've picked up so far has a really trashy label.

Does anyone know of any good PGM label scans floating around? failing that does anyone have any carts with good labels that they'd be willing to Scan? I suppose there is also the question of if there are any good labels for Ketsui, Espagaluda, and Do Don Pachi Dai-Ou-Jou :thumbup:
 
I have the art for DDPDOJ and can share. Send me a pm or email and I'll get it to you.

I would really like to find a replacement for my Gladiator cart if anyone has a scan.
 
Just made a few PGM Labels if anyone's interested. :)

I just physically touched and booted every single PGM cart I have. 22 (Possibly 23 -- I can't figure out if I have Dragon World 3 in JP and World, or if I have Dragon World 3 and Dragon World 3 EX) with 1 more en route. Their labels mostly range from fair to good, with only 1 real exception. Still, I'd like them to be better. Anyone have suggestions for scanning them? Gonna wreck them if I try to detach them, I'm sure...

I don't know how you'd scan them still on your cart, might require special equipment but I bet it can be done.

Another option would be to use heat to easily remove them then scan the flat labels. A hair dryer or heat gun would do the trick. Then to reapply you can use a glue stick.

Heat gun is a decent idea, though I'm still nervous about damaging them (worse than they already are)... Because yeah I couldn't figure a way to either scan on the cart or remove from the cart without damage.

Guess a trip to Harbor Freight is in my future

you'd want to be careful and great it slowly from a decent distance, overheating could damage the label or cause it to crack/flake. You just want to heat it up enough to warm the adhesive but not damage the label
 
I have these 3 labels. If anyone need the file, pm me and leave your mailbox. file is around 7MB pdf.

carts (Taiwan ver) from top are
- Knights Of Valour Super Heroes
- Martial Masters
- Demon Front (Taiwan ver)

What are those clear shells from?

Haven't seen those before
 
Yeah new to me too, I've only seen clear red and opaque red, and I've got China/Japan/Taiwan/Hong Kong/World versions legit in my collection...
 
I thought that was the case, but how cool would they look! (Hint hint multi shell hint hint) ;)
 
I'm perplexed by that scan. The edges on the labels are perfect and there isn't a hint of solid red anywhere, so the cases haven't been manually colored out with a cropping tool. They're also not completely black and white as there's a hint of red. I guess when the scanner light lights up the cart from below it somehow becomes more translucent that it is.

Weird stuff!
