Anyone know where to buy the clear plastic boxes that the disks come in?  :)

I need some too, there must be a company that makes their own version as I have a similar plastic cover for my Super Famicom game boxes.

Interesting question.
I once saw plastic covers in a 100Yen shop, but unfortunately those were too small to fit Disk games into them. I'm sure there are bigger sleeves sold somewhere.

Or seriously if you have the time and items you can just try to make them yourselves :P It wouldn't be that hard really. Just buy some of those school binders with that lined transparent plastic so it sorta looks like the real thing, measure a box you already own or try to trace it on the plastic, cut it out, fold it and glue it with super glue :P Last week I was missing lots of those paper sleeves for my disks, so I traced one of my sleeves and made about 8 of them. ;D But if you guys are talking about that clear plastic case that holds the game then I don't know what to do. :-[

Great - thanks for the tip.  Can you post a pic of your FDS box  :).

Making them by yourself would be an option, but lots of people aren't skilled enough. *cough*...  :-[

You can shop at Tea4Two through Shopping Mall Japan but then you will have the extra fees to pay. If you wanted a decent amount of them and maybe got a few other thing while you were at it it would be worth it. You could always buy a bunch then sell them to the folks on here who need them to recomp some of your bill.

Couldn't you use KAO floppy Disk Holder disk sleve that hold 8 floppies?
