VHS Covers

I noticed that in the VHS/DVD Covers section, you guys don't have a scan of the first TMNT film's cover.

So, I checked to see if there was any other covers that I had that were missing there, and that was it... but I found that I had four covers that didn't match the covers you guys had for the same tapes.

My TMNT3 cover is the same, except for the font used in the two lines on the top is different, and it has a circular logo on the lower left proclaiming "Free discount coupon book inside this videocassette" with "Awesome Value!" and "A Coupon Cowabunga" around it.

The cover I have for the cartoon episode "Case of the Killer Pizzas" has the version of the f.h.e. logo in the lower right with 1st grader-type lined paper behind the letters. Additionally, the "Family Home Entertainment Presents" at the top is the plain text version instead of the red/blue/yellow arched logo version. AND the words "Case of the Killer Pizzas" is in the stylized font seen on many of the covers (Heroes in a Half Shell, Shredder is Splintered, etc.)

My "Super Rocksteady and Mighty Bebop" cover has basically the same differences as with "Case of the Killer Pizzas", except the lower-right f.h.e. logo is the same as in your scan (sans lined paper version).

And, finally, my "Attack of The Big Macc" cover has a normal font instead of the stylized one for the episode title.

So, if you want, I'll scan these covers so you can add them to the site.

I also have the following VHS covers (in no particular order), which if you want I can scan higher-quality versions of for the site:
TMNT2: Secret of the Ooze
Invasion of the Turtle Snatchers
The Big Rip Off
The Great Boldini
Heroes in a Half Shell
April Foolish
Sky Turtles
Pizza by the Shred
Cowabunga, Shredhead

The slight variations in the covers come from different "printings" of the tapes, much like books have different printings. FHE started releasing the TMNT tapes with the "stylized" font, as you put it, then changed it to be more uniform so it'd look nice in box sets.

Pretty much all of the covers are available on ninjaturtles.com (a lot of them are actually scans of my tapes.. because Dan didn't have scans of hardly any of them and I got reeeeally bored one day

)

Yeah, a bunch of the ones you mentioned were mine dude. I got them a long time after they were first released, so they were probably re-reprints.
