I'm working on a scale model project and I'm looking for all sides of the UK multi climate ration box.

Thanks,
Paul

Hey Paul, would a scan of the box be helpful?

Thanks for the pictures laughing_man. Especially the perspective views. Fantastic.

I missed some of that on the prior ration boxes I did a few years back and missed something on the bottom but it doesn't matter.

Lars,

Scans would make my job easier but printing would be ink heavy. Here is what I did before for printing on brown paper (grocery bags, etc):

Laughing_man,

Can you confirm that the box still measures 7.5" x 7.75" x 4.5" or it's metric equivalent?

Thanks,
Paul

The size of MCR differs from it a little.

22cm x 19cm x 11cm
The ruler of my country has a scale of cm :D
I converted cm into the inch.
8.66" x 7.48" x 4.33"

Thanks for the help. Finished the box in 1/16 scale. I was wondering if anybody knew how the box has changed for the production language? The trial version has some language on the side soliciting input so I'm sure this has changed. Also looking for pictures of the 10 x individual ration box.

This picture has some hints about what the 10 x individual box looks like and there looks to be a new sticker on one end and the MOD and de&s logo have reversed positions.

I noticed this newer looking box on Ebay UK;

Looks to me the newer sticker is more subdued cant really make out much more than that.
