In order to reward early buyers of the Xbox game Jade Empire. Microsoft Corp. created a limited-edition, collectible package that sparkles with 3-D holography.

The game comes in a DVD case holding two CDs and an instruction booklet. The case features a holographic 6-pt paper insert from Vacumet Corp. The paper is lacquer-coated, micro-embossed, and metallized to impart the holographic effect.

The holographic “nine-up” sheet is offset-printed in six colors plus UV varnish and die-cut by AGI Media Services.

Precise registration gives the graphics razor-sharp edges. Technicolor did the assembly and packaging.
