    Great boxes. The animated boxes look good. Are you going to give a tutorial on how you made it? Always wanted to get some boxes done for other line of transformers just like g1 line had. Where did you fine the patern for the animated or did you made them from scratch?

    Just be patient. If you'd read the thread, you'd know that I'm going to get it put into the Tutorials section, man.

    Really awesome work you got there. We need more custom boxes in this forum. Making custom boxes for those originally on a card is really something. I would love to see some custom boxes for the world smallest series. :drool:

    When I get enough of them done, I want to try to get a license from Hasbro to make them. That way I can have them made like the originals and printed on cardboard and Diecut. Right now they are about $10 a square foot and that doesn't include any labor for making them or putting them together. So they are not cost effective currently. They are if you consider an original Minty fresh box in the same condition costs 3 times as much, but I am not sure if there is a market for $30-60 copy boxes. Now if they were totally custom they might be worth that for someone, but the market is probably small. If I could pump them out for $10-20 a piece I am sure people would jump on them. We'll see when I get a lot more of them done.
