Ordering Information:
With the design now finalized I am ready to start taking orders on this project. The way I plan on doing this is opening an order window for about one week or so. I will collect deposits/full payments during that time and once the list is closed, no more orders will be added later on. I will print everyone's box bottoms and lids all at the same time in one large print job. I'm not going to cost justify cranking up the machine later on to do a one off, because I will already be on to another project by then. So if you want to get in on this run, please do not hesitate. I do not own a Bickle figure myself so I have no plan to make extras for myself like I do with figures I do own. I will only be making the quantities ordered.
When the ordering window is open I will require a minimum, non-refundable deposit on your total to secure your order. Should you change your mind after the print process has started, you forfeit your deposit. You are free to pay in full if you like, and paid in full orders will be processed and created first. Anyone needing to go the deposit route are free to pay their balance upon completion.
I estimate from the time that the ordering window closes that turn around time will be in the 2+ week timeframe. It could be sooner if I get on a good roll.
I do have 3 completed boxes in hand that will ship sooner than the rest.
My wife is getting an estimate today on international shipping and that will be filled in ASAP.
If you are an international buyer and want to just do a deposit, and I have not posted the shipping rates yet, feel free to just do a deposit based on the item price without shipping for now.
Also if you opt in for a kit and between now and finishing the project should you decide to upgrade to a finished version you can do so by paying the difference with no issues.
The Kit Version:
Here is what you get:
- 1 3D printed box lid
- 1 3D printed box bottom
- 1 printed, one piece die-cut vinyl decal box bottom wrap
- 1 printed, one piece die-cut vinyl decal outside lid wrap
- 1 printed, one piece die-cut vinyl decal inside lid wrap
- 1 printed, one piece die-cut vinyl decal outer hinge
- 1 printed, one piece die-cut vinyl decal box tray liner
- Bonus 1/6 cash will NOT come with the kits, only with the Finished Versions
What you will need to do: a very, very light sanding for the primer to grip to, sanding, painting and sealing.
You will see very, very little of the actual box plastic if your decals are applied correctly. I wouldn't put a ton of effort into trying to mix the perfect paint color, I just went with a color somewhere between dark brown and black. You see so little of it, that it doesn't matter.
After the paint has dried you will then need to apply your die-cut decals. Around the time I start shipping kits, I will do a write up of the order you need to apply these in. This all sounds much more difficult than it really is, so don't be intimidated.
Price for U.S. customers: $55 - Add $3 for Ground Shipping without Insurance and Tracking. Add $7 for USPS Priority Shipping with Tracking and Insurance
International customers add ( ) to the U.S. price for the additional shipping.
If you choose the option that does not include tracking and insurance, I cannot be responsible for any damages.
The Finished Version:
Here is what you will get:
- 1 painted, assembled and finished box.
- The hinge is designed just like the original and the lid really opens and closes.
- Finished Version customers will also receive crumpled up bonus cash. There will be a $20 bill as seen in the photo on a previous post, and a few $1 bills. Bonus cash will not be available in the kits.

Okay, I have the quotes for international shipping. The first finished box went out this morning and because the weight and box size is going to be the same on all, my wife had them quote worldwide international rates 3 different ways. In the post I made yesterday I had said "International folks add..." Scrap that because it's too confusing. the following rates you will just add to the item.
Here are the 3 options for international shipping for both the kits and finished boxes:
1) International First Class - No Tracking, No Insurance - This is the slowest, most economical solution: $12.45
2) Registered with $100 Insurance, no tracking number - $26.10
3) Express Global - Includes Tracking AND Insurance - Also arrives within 3-5 days - $55.00
So just choose your option and add it to either the $55 kit price or the $85 finished price.
Also the plan as of right now is to end the ordering date this Friday, the 31st, so please make sure to get your deposits or full payments in.
