discussion Ferrero Rocher Boxes

[Guest]

Hi every one

Has anyone noticed that Ferrero clear boxes make really good and cheap Display cases? Especially 1/48 Armour.

Reason to eat posh chocies and Model make all in one :gift:

Happy new year

Hi Martin, good reminder to people...

I had a box for Chrizzy...all gone now!

I have been using these for ages and have a fair few (Who's been eating all the pies!)

I keep my figures, paints, 1/72 armour and bits and bobs in them.

Best bit is you don't have to remove the lid to see what's inside!

Happy New Year to you too.

Cheers,

Ron

Which ones are these? The only ones our local co-op has are the large flattish ones, you'd not get much displayed in one of those unless it was a lowlowlowlowlowrider,

Could you post a pic?

The low flat ones make good bases for 1/72 dios. you can paint the inside with whatever colour you like and it shows through as a nice smooth surface.

Also if you paint the inside of the lid/base with the colour of the ground surface/substance you're using it gives a bit of background "depth" under it.

Hmmm, looks a handy storage size, and an excuse to buy choccy's, ideal!

will look out for those next time i'm in the big city doing a shop.

Buy them for the other half.... get browney points for doing so... keep the box for your own purposes (and save the points for that kit you wanted) Everyone's a winner
