Feeling nostalgic.... I had all the Bonkers from 1 to 13. But all got ruined in storage (literally pains me!)
I'd love to get hold of a poster of all the compilation covers to frame on the wall. But apart from a very small picture from Twitter showing all the album's, I can't find anything.
Has anyone ever come across a hi res image of all the covers?

I helped the license deal for bonkers in Japan... Still have all the print data (AI / PSD / PDF / etc) even had the original DAT's at one stage...
Full print artwork I got:
Bonkers 1
Bonkers 1 (Resist re-release)
Bonkers 1 (Resist slim double release)
Bonkers 2
Bonkers 2 Silver
Bonkers 3
Bonkers 4
Bonkers 5
Bonkers 5 Silver
Bonkers 6
Bonkers 7
Bonkers 12
Bonkers 13
Bonkers 14
Hardcore Heaven (first one)
HTID 1&2
I have zero permission to release it but if someone sorted out full legal clearance I would be happy to give to the licensed party as I think, at this point, I might be the only one with this data.... don't quote me on that.

I just can't release it as much as I would like to, I even second guessed replying to the email, but I wanted people to know that at least there is something out there should it be allowed and if legals could be sorted.
CDJay might be able to sort something out if he was interested?

I've always been curious what exactly you do. It sounds like you're well inside the scene doing releases in Japan, licensing for rhythm games, etc.

That depends on if Sharkey even speaks with him any more, which we highly doubt our we would have seen some kind of update regarding the Sharkey Completionist bundle

Yeah they're kinda protective over their artwork.

Archefluxx of anyone should now how protective they are.
The problem is. I believe the only legal action they(sharkey) could take was against Archefluxx was the either the name or the font likeness used.
There's no law that doesn't allow anyone to imitate someone else's art style. As long as the characters are unique and not carbon copies of the one present on Bonkers, Archefluxx's project should have been safe

I think I could have argued fair use as a parody, especially since it wouldn't have made money.
Nevertheless, everyone distanced themselves from it as it became too hot and it wasn't viable there on in, and I was an ambitious teenager getting brought down a peg or two.
On reflection, I think the aggressive take down by Sharkey was ultimately telling of his attitude to the Bonkers property as a whole. He seems resentful to the community, his fans or anyone who wants to drive it forward, probably because it's a reminder of the potential in it all that went unfulfilled.
We've seen that reclusive attitude to his music over the years. What we've seen and been told suggests quite strongly he's very apprehensive of failing [to fulfil potential] again.
Shame. If you have people loving your music, is it failure?
