Since my question got lost in other topic, I'm creating a new one -  can somebody please help me with making a paper box for Metal Slader Glory and Uchuu Keibitai SDF? I have hi-res scans of MSG (but only front and back in hi-res), but I have only front scanned for SDF. I'm not asking for the scans (although those too would be nice), but for the box measurements and layout to print and fold to make a original-sized box.
I do have that kind of boxed game, but I don't want to tear the box apart to measure it. But maybe somebody did it before.
Those boxes I'm looking for are different from boxes that Madara or Lagrange point uses. They are not so tall.
Games that use this kind of paper box:
Uchuu Keibitai SDF
Metal Slader Glory
Shin 4 Nin Uchi Mahjong: Yakuman Tengoku
Gunsight
...don't know about others.

You do not have to tear the box apart just to measure it... if you want i can give you dimensions of the boxes i have but they are not that tall ) just get a ruler and write stuff down :)
Here is an example ( the smw box was the near so i used it :D) oh and you can use a better ruler if you want ( for example a triangle ruler )

And you do this for all sides  of course when you print you add space for the stuff to be hold / glued together
I am back everyone :)

Thanks for the answer, I have measured the box, so X x Y x Z = 127 x 138 x 23 mm.
To understand what I'm searching for - I want the template that can be printed and folded exactly as the original box. With all the extra bits that are glued together and parts that fold one into another. Every time I create something, it simply won't fit together into a perfect shaped box I imagined.

If you want you can give me the dimensions and i can make you a PSD (Photoshop) template ( or xcf if you prefer to use GIMP as it is free)
I can even clear the image (for example now i am working on TENNIS  i am fixing colors and stuff )
I am back everyone :)

Thank you so much!

One last question,  i want to know if it is in the same size of the original box, because when i opened in photoshop is says:

width: 8,267
height: 9,563

21cm ancho
24,29cm alto  (I noticed that the name of the file was in spanish)

so, can i print it in an A4 size paper?
