Revell packaging problems

[Rick Lowe]

Trumpeter boxes are excellent while Italeri are as bad as Revell.

Some of the Italeri boxes are ok, but those for bigger kits can I agree be pretty flimsy.

I have a request in with our Junior Modellers Group for as many of the Zvezda 1/35 King Tiger boxes that they don't want, after their Build the Same Kit competition is over, as they are a very nice sturdy box with the right sort of opening and securing flaps.

They're a bit shallow (though no more so than a normal filing box), but will be ok for 1/72 aircraft or armour.

Having just finished it the Meng 1/35 D9 dozer box has been moved to my empty box stash as it is big and sturdy and is going to be perfect for moving larger 1/72 aircraft.
