Favorite VHS boxes and stickers? - Blu-ray Forum

Boxes: I love the big early/mid 80s MGM/UA boxes. I also have a fondness for early 80s Warner Bros. clamshell boxes.

Stickers: 80s MGM/UA. 80s/90s Columbia/TriStar/New Line. 80s Paramount. 90s 20th Century Fox.

Pretty much tells you everything you need to know right on the cover. I was a bit disappointed VS wasn't able to use it for the blu for whatever reason.

This isn't what the OP intended I'm sure, but these days these are hands down my favorite. The sound of the vhs shaking as the case snaps apart, has been indelibly burned into my head as one of the many joyful sounds of my youth. Riding my bike or Roller Blading to one of the local Video Rental stores throughout the 90's to rent Nintendo/Super Nintendo games and later Horror VHS helped to shape me into the movie fan and person I am today. I still get a bit excited whenever I come across one of these even now...

What a piece of art. All of mine are plastic or paper cover

Never owned it but saw a picture of the Ltd. Ed. Basic Instinct ‘ice covered’ VHS cover. Thought that was pretty cool.

Update: My bad! It was a DVD release.

Here my list of movies on VHS and my favorite clam shells. I like big thick and fat boxes:
