    Looking for storage options.

    Well I'm getting to the point where I need to box up some of the classic and customs and stow them away. So I am looking for plain cardboard boxes. Folding or 2 piece and 8"x3"x2". Anyone know of a supplier of such an item. Since its storage only, I dont need anything fancy.

      My Walmart has Rubbermaid 18 gal totes on clearance for $3.40 rom the Christmas stuff. They protect much better than cardboard. Plus if you ever get water they protect from that too. Stackable too, you might wanna check that out if possible. Don't know if your local store still has any but mine still had a wall full last week.
      It's not a doll it's an action figure.

          For archival purposes, you might want to make sure the boxes are lined with an acid free paper. Or that the boxes are acid free.

            It seems difficult to find individual boxes that will fit a single Mego comfortably. Other than the custom repro type boxes. AAAAA suggestion seems to be the winner. That company has mailing tubes 9"x3". That seemes to be as close as I'll get to a comfortable fit with out having to use packing. As I work on more customs and reproductions of the classics. The more space I lose.
