amiibo Box Art Template (Update in description.)

Description

UPDATE: New version available here... fav.me/d8culnw

This is a Photoshop template based on the Nintendo amiibo box art, specifically Captain Falcon's box (but they're all pretty much the same).

The typeface used for the text is ITC Avant Garde Pro. Thanks, OttoRook, for the font advice.

For the top-left name text, there are separate layer groups for single-line names (e.g. Villager) and two-line names (e.g. Captain Falcon). Just toggle on/off as appropriate.
Same goes for the angled name text, but just disable/enable the second line as needed.

Note that the size of the angled name text varies from amiibo to amiibo depending on the length of the name (see Villager vs Kirby). As such, you'll have to adjust it for each character you do.
So far, the names have all been in ALL-CAPS and occupied 1 or 2 lines. The only exception I've seen is that the WFT's "Wii Fit" text is in Title Case. Space would not have prevented all-caps, so my thinking is that this was done simply to match the "Wii Fit" trademark. I expect Zero Suit Samus, for example, to be in all-caps when she is officially released. No way to know for sure, of course.

I don't really have a problem sharing any templates I create. It's not as if I'm the originator of the amiibo box art; I just tried to make a close replica of it. I obviously can't stop you from using the template as you will, but please do not redistribute it without permission; link to the original posting instead:

What font could be a substitute for the boxing font used in this template? And also, could you walk me through the edits needed? Thanks!
