Title: Attn; Mike Scott, Zach candy boxes!
Post by: Gasport on July 26, 2008, 09:03:13 PM
This is for my new bestest friend, Mike Scott,
               As promised, here's the first group of boxes i assembled. I do a few at a time, so if i stick with it, i should have a nice assortment by the time Chiller rolls around. Can't wait to dump a bunch on Zach's table and see his reaction. I can hear that laugh now! Thanks again...

I'm pretty sure Phoenix never did the Munsters candy and toy box, nor did they do an Addam's family box. Hmmmmmm?  ;)

They did a whole series of BATMAN boxes, though.

Hmmmm? TV TERRORS series? Arrrgh!!! What am I saying!

My brother Monolith sent these to me for a birthday gift a while back. I'm not sure if the Zacherley and Vampira were made by Gasport, but I know the Feep box was made by Monolith.

OMG, Gasport those Zacherle boxes are BEAUTIFUL.  An amazing and loving tribute to the GREAT man himself.  What was Zacherle's reaction to these, when he saw them ?

The Zach and Vampira boxes were rendered bu our own mega talented Mike Scott. I did run off about 25 of them a couple of years ago, filled them with Halloween candy and a glow rubber bat and stuck them on Zach's table at Chiller. I told Zach's assistants to sell them and give all the money to Zach. He got a BIG kick out of them and for a second thought they were something available in stores without his knowledge! They all were sold out in about an hour! Here's a pic of the fruits of my labor...MAN did my hands hurt after assembling all these things. I killed an entire computer ink cartridge in the process!

OK, I misread the attribution of the creator of the Zach boxes on the subject heading from 2008. Created by Mike Scott, printed and built by Gasport - right? Then Monolith later adapted the design to create his Feep box.

This thread has inspired me to start building these great-looking boxes again. I built most of them, but there's still some unsettled business I need to get back to. Thanks again to the ever-talented Mike Scott for designing these great DIY boxes!

Since you said "I'm not sure if . . .?", you already covered yourself.  :)
