So I ordered an ICM 1/48 scale Spitfire and it arrived today. I was quite surprised at how small the shipping box was! I was certain they sent me a small 1/72 scale something. As you can see by the photo, the 1/48 ICM box is quite small and perfectly fits the kit as compared to the larger 1/48 Edward box. So this got me thinking, how much bigger would the stash be if all manufacturers fit their kits in the smallest possible box?! I mean, you could fit four times the kits in a given stash space!

Sorry, some Dragon and many other Armor kits need a vacum pump to fit every thing back after you look at the sprues.
Quite true! I have a Dragon Tiger kit that I didn’t think I was going to be able to get back into the box!
About 50% of my stash is box's with 2 or even 3 kit's in one box.
Yes, once you open a Dragon kit, you might as well build it. You will N E V E R get it back in the box !
Dont worry about the thumbprint, paint it Rust , and call it "Battle Damage"
That’s a good idea LT. I may have to look at doing something like that! My wife would be happy thinking my stash is getting smaller!

Chad, i noticed the same thing when i got the ICM 1/35th 251 a couple of months back, box is a lot smaller tyhen the other brands of 251's. But everything seems to fit no problem and even goes back in without a fight.

LOL! So it's not just me. I got a Dragon kit from a very good friend and I thought the sprues had reproduced like a rabbit or something. LOL! It was like a puzzle to get everything back in. But the detail in those Dragon kits! WOW!
Mopar MadnessThat’s a good idea LT. I may have to look at doing something like that! My wife would be happy thinking my stash is getting smaller!
That's why I started doing it ..... L O L !
You can put several kits into a Hobby Boss box. Those things are huge!

Building a kit from your stash is like cutting a head off a Hydra, two more take it's place.
