You might have seen those beautiful wood alarm clocks with displays that peer through the wood in the front. That was the approach here, with the addition of Janine’s “WE GOT ONE” button on top that functions as a snooze button.

Here’s a piggy bank based on Scrooge McDuck’s vault, the very one where he dives into a pool of coins without injury.

Also in the fall of 2013 Showcase released their own box set that had a similar approach:
I think it looks really good, despite the smaller cases. Might look even better without the red liners in each case. Had my enthusiasm for the show not plummeted in the later seasons I would’ve bought this for sure.
