Saw TaehaTypes' review of your box and the legs, lid, foam insert, and straps are exactly what I've wanted!

P.S. I bought a few of your keyboard display stands at the SoCal meetup and I have to say the quality is great. Good stuff!

From how the last one turned out, this is a very tempting re-grab.

Would prefer if there were options for smokey or ice.

I'm in regardless.

All the artisans in the top photo are handmade by me. Mostly blanks with a Final Boss in the top row, Rux in the middle row, and a Crusader in the bottom row.

I would totally get another if you fix the issue with the overly tight lid tolerances. Mine has already developed a fair share of wear on the lid and case edges from it needing to be brute forced in every single time. Great box otherwise.

Hmm, while I'm not the hugest artisan collector out there I could use a true storage solution for my resins. Very tempting considering almost all comments about the first round are positive.

Dropping a good word on this case. Was very surprised with the quality of the plastic, but disclaimer I haven't really compared it to other cases. And I do agree the lid could be improved. I would still buy it again if I needed to (I only have like 10 artisans, lol).

Interested on this but I've seen a few comments on lid tolerance issues. Will this be fixed down the line?

The lids were designed to fit tightly. A small number of people in the round 1 group buy expressed concern (no one at any meetup going back to May of 2019 who got to handle the case gave this feedback), so I've been tinkering with the lid cuts since depending on which side is down, the lid can be slightly tighter.

In round 1, I had all the lids before the cases arrived. Moving forward, I will be carefully test-fitting lids in smaller batches during QC so that no one feels like they're too tight.

Due to the coronavirus outbreak, the production of Ice Box will be delayed 1-2 weeks. Because of this, I'm going to push the "shipping" date back to the first week of April.

As things develop, I will provide updates.

Sorry about the delay and stay safe out there!

Hey mate, would love a head's up on GH when the next wave of extras come out. Was watching for the r/mm post after the last update here but must've missed it.
