Model Boxes

[G-Forces]

So what do you guys do with you spent model boxes? Keep them or toss them.

They take up a lot of space I'm just really wondering if there is a good reason to keep them.

[DVSNCYNIKL]

I used to ditch them. I would have some serious space issues if I kept them. Bad enough I barely had room for the models.

I cut the front off the box and keep it, the rest I chuck.

Dont ask me why I keep the front, but I just do, I have the front from every kit ive done.

I used to keep the whole box, and I used to keep them underneath my desk, but after a while there was no room for my feet anymore, so I cut the fronts, put them in a drawer and tossed the rest.

I do the same as Hummerman...keep the front and chuck the rest

[Steve Gibbins]

Normally I chuck 'em, but one of our cats has found a use for one of them. She curls up in it!! Strange animal.

[Guiddy]

Yeah, I lob em!
My parents moan I have too many kits, so getting rid of the finished ones boxes goes someway into making the collection look smaller!

[turbos86]

I just stack them up in the corner of my room

hehe, when will it reach the ceiling

[Jay!]

I'm a keeper! ...of model boxes, that is.

I find other parts and junk to keep in them. They don't take up too much room.

Keep 'em under the bed! I figure, there ain't no room for monsters if I keep all my boxes down there

[magicmanjk808]

if i need a box for all my tools or sandpaper, then i keep it. if not, then i just keep the front. i can barely walk around in my room. imagine if i had all those boxes.

[Prelude2War]

I cut the sides and hang them on the wall... I've got a border going on around my room....

[Honoturtle]

Hell yeah!!! I toss them on my book shelfs and now under my bed!!!! For keeps!

[fatboyslim]

I cut the pictures off the sides so I can show people what the real thing looks like, then bin the rest.
Hey Daggerlee it's not the monsters' under your bed you should worry about, it's the burglars breaking in through your window!!

(Yes I know I stole the above from the John Smiths ad before any other UK member says anything!!)

'AVE IT !!

[tazdev]

I keep them. But I only have 12 so far so the boxes are easy to store (so far)

[flyonthewall]

I keep mine coz one of the golden rules of modeling is - Don't throw anything away! A couple of boxes i use as spares boxes.
