A new website ( BigBoxDB.com )  offers a nostalgic journey back to the 1990s and early 2000s by allowing users to view and interact with 3D models of retro PC game boxes. This project, led by Adam 'Hans' Zwakenberg, a programmer at Digital Extremes, features over 250 classic games such as Dungeon Keeper, Diablo, and Age of Empires.

      I’ve seen a few different ones, although I haven’t seen one specifically for PC games. I’ve seen Etsy shops like this one and websites like this one for mini versions.
