Those are kinda cool. I don't know how well they will blow up, though. Any idea how big you want to make them?

If you have Photoshop you can extract the images by going to File/Import/PDF Image... then select the downloaded PDF and it will bring up thumbnails of all the images in the PDF. Choose the one you want.

I dont have photoshop. I'd like to make one as close to scale as possible.I figure print then out on 11x17 paper and use foamcore for the structure. If I dont make one full size, I may opt for the 1/2 size shipping containers. Is there a free version of photoshop anywhere?

Photoshop is expensive. If you have file sharing you may be able to find a bootleg copy.

Try opening the PDF in whatever photo editing software you have. It may let you select one page at a time to rasterize then go from there. (I've only used Photoshop so I can't be much help.)

Alright the the TVFT downloads page now has the full version of the Cobra Ark Crate:

Put together it should look something like this:



This one is just cut out and taped together. I don't have a Joe display to put it in at the moment, so I wasn't going to build all the internal structure up.

You are AMAZING! Thanks so much!

You know what would be great? A GI Joe team version, or maybe a hi-tech, metal looking crate!
