| Spidey lunchbox tins
These cheap lunchboxes are preprinted with graphics. i might try and see if i can get all the panels out of one lunchbox. Here's the hood. |

Thats Awesome!!! i actually had the same idea last week when i found this OG Ninja Turtles TV tray at the local Goodwill... but when i got home, i couldn't bring myself to cut it up... its too retro to destroy...( 1988 )... im bout to be on the hunt for an OG lunchbox tho... gonna have a vintage hood on my Wraith... lol |

How did you go about forming it though? That would be my concern, not butchering it on the first go round. Jeff |

I used to have that meal tray, i ate a lot of meals on it in front of the ole boob tube when i was a kid, this brings back memories. Really nice job on the lunchbox skins, its a great idea. At first i thought it was going to be a Tamiya Lunchbox body with a custom spoderman paintjob, but this is probably better. | |

Very nice job Only way it could be cooler is if the spidey string was at front of hood, and servo winch cable came out of his hand |

Looks great, now hide that antenna. Sorry, I just hate seeing a big ole antenna sticking out of scale type rig. |

Thanks for the comments. i just kinda freestyle'd it. i cut it out quite a bit wider than needed. Started forming with my hobby scarred fingers, then used a 3/8" delrin rod to kind of roll it into shape. All the while, cutting where needed to help the bends with a Wiss snip (i knew the front corners wouldn't form clean, so just cut 'em). The nose came out a little long and tight on the bumper mount, but i'll tweak it some. Last edited by 16hp; 11-30-2011 at 06:37 PM. |

Spidey is very cool, although it probably would give a serious collector bad dreams.
