There's a HissTank guy making scale storage tanks out of the most common items -- worth checking out

Looks cool. I'm still looking for some clear tanks for that Toxo Lab set. Aside from glass, I am unsuccessful. An idea like this would be neat using 2 liter coke bottles.

Not the best option unless you plan on the leaving the top or bottom on the bottle. Once you cut the top and bottom off that recycled plastic they use is really, really flimsy.

Now something like this - http://www.ebay.com/itm/25X-STAR-WARS-A ... 1255900796
Or even this - http://www.webstaurantstore.com/get-h-1 ... 75H14.html
might be a better option.

I snagged a dozen back in Dec at K-Mart for $1.24 each. They are GREAT for dio work.

TRU.com has them for a $1 but shipping for me was brutal.

Toys R Us has these on clearance online for $1 each. I ordered the limit of 3.

They're even cheaper if you can find them in-store. Everything on clearance is marked down even further, so it was $0.75 including tax. I should have bought more than one

Yeah I got a few of those for my own collection. Ideally I want a clear plastic item with a diameter of 7 to 9 inch and height of 9 to 10 inch. That's why I was thinking a large coke bottle. Cut the top and bottom and mount it on plastic. If I capped off both ends it should keep it sturdy.

I like what Jin did. I always said these things would work well as the stasis chambers from Retaliation, that's my planned use anyway.

Bought 3 more of these this weekend at a different TRU.

And thanks for that link to Jin's custom, that's what I'd love to do.
