[QUOTE="Robstyley, post: 537058, member: 6009"] I’ve got this Jedi Slave 1 box I’ve had for a long while. I bought it on eBay with a mint unused Slave 1 in it with instructions and unused decal sheet (which is on display loose). I can’t remember the story, I think it was a loft find, I paid bugger all for it. Anyway, one side and end of it are in pretty good condition (first couple of photos) and I’ve had it on display from that side. The other side and end are quite badly damaged (last few photos), all crumpled and bent, looks like water damage. I’ve had a look at some previous box restoration threads this morning and it’s given me a good idea of some techniques. Just hoping someone with experience of doing it could give me some advice on this particular box. I should prob say that I don’t want to glue any cardboard to it if possible or put any black ink or pen on it. I don’t mind the edgewear, I just want to straighten the cardboard and make it square and flat.
