sorry guys!
as far as what I use for the label, I had 2 approaches. One was an avery label trimmed down, which looked ok, but no gloss. So I took the advice of another link and put a 3" clear packing tape over it, which really added to the "manufactured" feel. BUT, the colors were washed out- milky blacks etc (we call it 'latitude' in the film biz). So I switched over to photo paper, but it wouldn't stick to the cart (used rubber cement)! eventually, I figured out everything would stick better if I peeled off the backing of the photo paper leaving a very "fibery" backing which easily stuck to the cart.
I have transformers, choplifter, karateka, gradius II lined up as well. I did a goonies label as well, but photoshopped over the "pile of gold" instead of the black bar seen in the other thread's pic.
