If you have one near you, try the Container store. They've got all sorts of cases for collectibles.

My second Ultra Magnus arrived today. I was a bit disappointed because the box looked much better in the pictures. :hs: It's better than the one I already had but it's still a little bit of a letdown.

that sounds like a plan to me :thumbup:

terrific suggestion ... this was exactly what I was looking for ... but .. everything just missed the size dimensions. :sad:

so bad ass. I'm going to mess around with the normal sized e-hobby reissues ... I wonder if I could get 2 or 3 in that cereal box container.

triple edit ...

that cereal box container will hold 2 stacked eHobby reissues almost perfectly. There will be a:

1in gap at the top
.25in gap on the sides
.5in gap in depth.

oh man, no idea ... those mini constructicons are great ... but they're TINY.

When you build the Devastator, he's no taller than 7 or 8 inches high

I can't get over this container store!

http://www.containerstore.com/browse...4&PRODID=73649
the 9in cube would be perfect for a jet box. a reissued jet is 8.75 by 8.75 ... talk about a sweet display!
