Line 14:
** Similarly, the VHS tapes form different pictures when placed side by side in order, one for each saga. They even had alternative pictures for the uncut tapes.
* The English volumes of ''[[Darker Than Black]]'' work in much the same way (albeit with a much smaller mural), forming a picture of Hei's [[Mask Power|iconic mask]]
* The spines of the Finnish volumes of ''[[Ranma
** The original Japanese collected editions all had female Ranma's mugshot (in a variety of colors) at the top of the spine. Mainly comedic, romantic, or filler volumes would depict her with a whimsical or cute expression; volumes that were predominantly serious or action-oriented would instead give her a determined, or even ''fierce'' one. The final volume gave her a genuinely happy look.
* The spine art of [[Fullmetal Alchemist]] is this; each volume features the basic metallic gray, red and white color scheme and a single character on the side of the tanokban. Thanks to the series' sizable lifespan it ended up showcasing practically every major character, and the Elric brothers more than once, due to [[Character Development|significant visual changes]]).

* Be-Bop Deluxe: Six CDs where the spines spell out BE-BOP at the top and DELUXE at the bottom.
* There's a [[Pink Floyd]] [[wikipedia:Shine On
* The remastered [[Marillion]] CDs from ''Script for a Jester's Tear'' to ''Afraid of Sunlight'' have letters on the spines which spell M-A-R-I-LL-I-O-N (eight albums, nine letters, so the two L's go on one spine)
* The cover art for Nelly's ''Sweat'' / ''Suit'' albums can be placed side by side to form a picture.

== [[Video Games]] ==
* Starting with ''[[The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind|Morrowind]]'', every installment of ''[[The Elder Scrolls]]'' series has featured [[Minimalistic Cover Art]] showing an emblem of some sort from the Elder Scrolls universe. ''[[The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion|Oblivion]]'' goes a bit further: the normal edition is printed in white, the collector's edition in brown, and the Game of the Year Edition in black.
* Each video game in the main ''[[Halo]]'' trilogy features [[The Hero|Master Chief]] staring at something with a gun in hand.
* When ''[[Starcraft]]'' was first released, it came packaged in one of three different boxes, each depicting a unit from one of the three races in front and colored, and the other two units toward the side and grayed out. If you put the boxes side-by-side you could create a sort of infinite loop.
