Hey guys :)

Thought i would share one of my latest custom boxes. This one is for the WST Tiger Tracks figure. I made the box in the G1 Vintage Style complete with custom tech spec. The box is made to fit the bubble that he comes in from heerotoysmaker. I recolored the G1 Sideswipe box art to fit the figure better as well . Im working on a WST G2 Breakdown box next, ill post up some pics once i get it finished :)
Here are some pics of the Tiger Tracks box :)

To quote Sam's mum from DOTM - "What a gorgeous box" :p

The background sunburst on yours is ten times better than most of the well known KO producers.

Correct me if I am wrong, but looking at the front of the box would I be right in assuming that it's not all cut from the same sheet?

You are correct on that. Sad thing is i can not print my stuff on a full sheet because of its size. Plus if i was able to print onto a full sheet the paper would most likely crack or tear during folding because of the thickness of the posterboard that i adhear the print outs too to make the final product strong and sturdy. I really wish i could find a print shop that would print my work but US print shops wont touch these with a 2 mile pole lol..

The Sunburst too me a few tries to match up. Mine use to be a little too yellow but i think i finally got it right. What im trying to make now is the Pixelated sunburst thats found on the headmaster boxes and such. Its a nightmare trying to make that lol..

Thanks for the compliment :)

Yup I do sell them, if you click on the pic in my signature it will take you to my site where you can see all the boxes i make. I make them for WST on up, Most are for sale but a few i can not sell.

Im working on a B.A.P.E. WST Prime Box now thats pretty much finished, i just need to get the wst version of it so i can take the toy pictures for the box. Im going to start a G2 WST Breakdown next.

i just checked out your site primal... and to think i was impressed by just your sunstreaker box! :o

so many different boxes, so many good ideas.... i'm just speechless man! :D

i dont know if they're for sale or not, but i'd be interested in finding out about prices for the wst ones you've done, particuarly the G1 seekers? i could see thrust and starscream... have you done the other 3? or are they planned?

anyways...

awesome stuff mate

very cool custom boxes and custom bubble too!
WST are wicked and this does them justice!

However, i noticed that you spelt Tiger Tacks instead of Tracks on the bottom face of the box.

shouldnt be a big deal as im sure you can print off another?? :p

Yeah i noticed the typo while building it lol, not a problem though since this is just the test box to make sure everything folds right. The ones i sell will all be corrected :)

Here is a sneak peek at the WST BAPE box im working on :)
