Fictional DK3 Instruction Sticker now a reality. What do YOU think???

Sorry for the new thread... My other thread about this had the wrong title. :)

What do you guys think of this instruction sticker for DK3? I have been feeling that horizontal piece of laminated wood above the CP was a little naked. Will this do?

I am going to look at getting these produced and will sell them cheap. Uncoated paper? PP coating? Let me know if you are interested.

And... let me know if there is anything you don't like about it. Please!

Here are some photos of a crappy ink jet print out. My printer needs ink, colors are faded. You get the idea...

Think the colors are off should be Red looks Pink colored.

I think pics of Staney and DK could be clearer/better. But it's better than what we have now
 
The red is based on the RED Pantone Radarscope color. I used the Pantone color in Illustrator and converted it to CMYK. I did the characters in the style of the other instruction stickers.

Next to the other stickers:

Donkey Kong's dark brown looks a lot darker than on the other cards... was that intentional? I don't have a DK3 but this looks pretty authentic to me. :)

Wade, I followed the color of DK's Sprite in the game. It's the SAME.

For the people who have commented about the sprites, etc. These little Sprites are pixel for pixel exact copies of the game's sprites. Yes, they are chunky. That's how they look close-up. This look is more authentic and matches the other Kong instruction card style. You know?

I am in for 1 Johnny, obviously.
 
Maybe it would look better printed on a glossy sticker but perhaps the red background on the right side of the card should be a little darker to match the marquee and such.

Problem is, I am guessing and there is no good source material to go off of. I did the cabinet color for the red cause that was a known entity. I supposed I could bring a pantone book home and try to match the red on my marquee. In fact, I WILL DO THAT. And, I'll match all the colors. The logo, etc.

As far as my crappy photo with the print out. Don't even look at that. I did that late last night just to see how it looked scale-wise on the cabinet.

I photoshopped the art onto the cabinet.

I think the red matches the CPO and Bezel well. NO?
