SethB6025 Posted April 29, 2006 Share Posted April 29, 2006 I'm talking about the small box on the upper left of the move along pack. I know it's a tupperware container, but does anyone know the exact type/model/size? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trooperexpert Posted April 29, 2006 Share Posted April 29, 2006 Yes! I have known what this part is for years.. Sorry I thought everyone knew. It is still made today, although the outer lip edge is slightly off. Look for it on ebay as well. It is a meat keeper. That is for the trooper on the right. The trooper on the left has a large clear storage container. I actually found 3 of them and could not believe it. I am compiling a list of the parts and their numbers since tupperware does not change them. BTW, in the star wars universe that is called the: personal effects/food storage plasteel container (imperial issue) I got bored at work yesterday and I went through and named EVERY PART of the packs. If I have the time I will try to get a chart done soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dirty Trooper Posted May 2, 2006 Share Posted May 2, 2006 I have found the black box part but how do i make it smooth? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SethB6025 Posted May 2, 2006 Author Share Posted May 2, 2006 Just do the electrical tape cross to cover the logo. The ridge around the edge should remain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dirty Trooper Posted May 2, 2006 Share Posted May 2, 2006 copy that... I still can't see the tupperware logo on that photo. if we ALL pull together and help out we could ALL get this right and maybe then we would all be singing off the same song sheet.

SethB6025 Posted May 2, 2006 Author Share Posted May 2, 2006 I would have to say the answer is one of the following; 1) the circle logo was sanded away before it was painted 2)The detail in that shot is obscured by the lighting 3) the paint was thick enough at that spot to obscure the circle. You definately have the right part for the shallow tupperware box. (shown on the far right & center of the photo above) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TD-1536 Posted May 2, 2006 Share Posted May 2, 2006 I answered this question in another thread. They are two different boxes on two different back pack designs. For replicated examples, you can reference Brak's pack for the Tupperware meat container (with the slightly contoured sides), and my pack for the basic 'box'. The top I acquired from TE, it's 6.5in x 10.75in. The sides I made from sheet styrene. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1970s Posted May 2, 2006 Share Posted May 2, 2006 Dear TD 2479, Is that Tupper box for the Trooper pictured above on the left side with the orange paldron? Is so, Could I see a picture of the other sides of the box and could you give the dimentions? thanks, Jack RedFox@optonline.net Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RoCKo Posted May 14, 2006 Share Posted May 14, 2006 do you think this is definatly the right container? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SethB6025 Posted May 14, 2006 Author Share Posted May 14, 2006 There is a part that is more like 5"x9", which seems closer to the reference. The different containers are almost identical in overall appearence though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Art Andrews Posted May 28, 2006 Share Posted May 28, 2006 Yes! I have known what this part is for years.. Sorry I thought everyone knew. It is still made today, although the outer lip edge is slightly off. Look for it on ebay as well. It is a meat keeper. That is for the trooper on the right. While I initially also believed the container on the right to be a meatkeeper (which is approx 5"X9") I no longer believe that to be accurate. I believe what is seen on the trooper on the right is actually a Tupperware "Stow N Go" Craft Box which is 6"X9". While the overall shape size is very similar, I think from the images below you will see the Stow N Go is more accurate than the meatkeeper. Also, while it is not super clear, I believe you can see the tape over the logos in these pics... I know I have some more that show it better... trying to find them now... Stow N Go on Left. Meatkeeper on Right. You decide. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weiBes trooper Posted May 28, 2006 Share Posted May 28, 2006 I agree,the stow-n-go has the larger lip and looks to be the rite box.Great work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoCKo Posted May 28, 2006 Share Posted May 28, 2006 i believe the box to be the left container on the picture. it measures 9 inches long,5 1/2 inches wide and it is a little over 2 1/2 inches deep... what do ya think... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

runJEDIrun Posted July 8, 2006 Share Posted July 8, 2006 i was wondering if the larger box on the left trooper had its lid on as well and just placed upside down, or if you guys think they took the lid off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dirty Trooper Posted July 10, 2006 Share Posted July 10, 2006 I can't get a Tupperware "Stow N Go" Craft Box anywere in the UK. I have tried Ebay and Google, NOTHING I need your help guys... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grand Moff Niko Posted July 11, 2006 Share Posted July 11, 2006 I can't get a Tupperware "Stow N Go" Craft Box anywere in the UK. I have tried Ebay and Google, NOTHING I need your help guys... I had the same problem in Australia. Do what I did. Send a email with a photo of an ‘stow and go’ to everyone you know! I started with my family. I sent one to my Brother , sister and mother. In one day I had two! Good luck. Niko. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
