But right after I put it down, a guy came walking up and he also picked it up and was looking at it. I was going to tell him it might be broke, but I did'nt.
That'll teach him.

Fantastic boxes!!! I'd display either in a second! Did you make the second one? Or did you have it made?

I made both of them actually. I have been making the custom modern art boxes for a while. I had a G1 Roadbuster transparency so it was my first attempt at an actual G1 box. I have decided, since it would be impossible to afford to replace my old MISB collection I am just going to make a whole new collection of original boxes and Custom Boxes. I am working on Astrotrain, HotRod and TM Hotrod, and a few other targetmasters. I have doubles and triples of almost every G1 toy loose, so why not. I am going to do US style boxes for all the ehobby and diaclone variants too. Its been fun so far. I am working with a few people to make bubbles for the toys. The bubbles are ridiculously expensive and hard to find, but I am sending all I get to Bubbleformers to try and get them out for the community.

Well I'm back in otown and no sign of leader jetfire. I checked targets on east colonial and university, toysrus in fashion square, and super walmart in east colonial. tons of lead. megs and optimus, numerous demolishor, ratchet, ironhide, starscream, wheelie, skids, chromia figs.

"No, I don't think its big enough!", I said, "Another few hundred more and I'm set".

Thats pretty cool. You do excellent work. I love the g1 artwork, and display whenever I can. Brings me right back to '84+. I'd love an Astrotrain box myself. When you say all the ehobby and diaclone styles, are you talking about g1 style boxes with the artwork for the figures being the same picture with the different color schemes reflecting either the ehobby or diaclone colors? (kinda wordy question)
