Ok i have looked all over the forum for a tutorial on how to get into a box,there is nothing as far as i can find.Lots of threads on armour building ,top tips on helmet construction,blaster making,velcro,snaps,boots theres even one build thread on sandtroopers kit! Nothing on box opening.

 

Thoughts off the top of my head are.....

Dynomite this was a non starter as i have no matches in the home.The JCB again drew a blank,can`t find the keys anywere.I thought i know i will ask the butler hes good at that sort of thing,hes gone missing as well.last seen cleaning the boating lake!

 

I want to know whats in this box as much as you do,any help please?

Looks to me like a very familiar sized box from Paul, so is it another TM armour kit then?

Luv it!!!! may have to steal it for other boards.....

:lol: hahaha.... so was the box empty? or did it have a bin in it that you decided to put the cardboard into?

i was hoping to see the new TM :P

I was going to suggest a box cutter, but the TSA (US Trasportation Safety admin, aka airport screeners) took mine away. I was thinking of my grandma's sewing needles but alas the TSA took that away too. I was thinking water might soften up the box, but the TSA won't allow that either.

 

I think a carbon fiber knife will do the job however, or underwear as these will pass airport screening.

Stop teasing us and show the white plastic, dammit! :angry2:

I think we know *who* it's from, the question is in the (new) details, if you take my meaning.

I had a sweat on there for a time,24 hours and only one reply.I thought this bit of fun was going to fall flat on its face.

Pablo This is what i was hoping for, some on the edge of the seat stuff.Without further a do heres how things have progressed.

Thanks for all your top tips guys.I found using ones finger nail under a corner the tape round the box came way almost in one go.

The four sides of the lid had to be opened in sequence but again soon made light work of that.

Very strange the box seems heavy,there must be something more that packing material in there.I had a brain wave,if i take the packing material out there just might be something at the bottom of this box!

Now whats this in the bottom?

 

Well guys its been a long day for me,and i have some things to do so will update as soon as i can! ;)

Darn, I found this thread too late. I was going to suggest you simply reroute it to me and I would take a stab at it. I mean, I do have professional experience. UPS - What can Brown do for you? :P

ARGH!

 

Ok, you know what? I'm not even interested. You wanna keep the secret? Keep it, I don't care.

 

We've seen lots of white helmets around here, some of us even own one, do you think we're jealous?

 

Do you think your's special because it's new? You're gonna assemble it, then show it to us, then it's done.

 

It'll be just another helmet. It's gonna be over soon, GET OVER IT!

 

 

 

 

GET A GRASP ON YOURSELF!!!!!

 

 

 

AAAAAAAAHHHHH!!!!!

Posted

Man, this is worse than being a blind man at a strip club! You know what's there, but you just can't see it!!

 

Come on Peter, quit toying with us!! :6: show off the TM....

Posted
OHHHH! The suspense is KILLING me man! (btw, not to hijack but did you get your mouse droid shells...?)

 

I wanna see what's in the box!! :D

 

Its like the briefcase in Pulp Fiction, we may never know what's in there.

If you don't post the conclusion soon, someone else is going to get a big brown box and steal your thunder. :)

I believe Pete is working away from home tonight so will be otherwise unavailable to update this thread :)

:0Lighten: he could have just opened the box from another side... then everything could have came out, and then we'd all be much happier... but i must say.... best thread i've seen yet. :peace: haha.
