Missed the boat on this one and it looks like it will be a red hot item for sometime to come so started thinking about a substitute that wont blow the budget.

After @Buch posted the pictures of the 100% accurate tin he had acquired,
I asked him if I could use them for a project and post them for others and he was more than happy to allow that so a big thanks to Anders.

Here are Buch`s pics cropped down. The pics are ready to be printed out now but if someone cando a little photoshop magic to the front face pic and straighten out
the little bit of lens distortion and then post it here, it will be even better. I found a picture of the inside of the lid online.










Found a great tin locally, still waiting on it. Thanks to Tuckanator for the original dimensions 117mm W x 70mm D x 15mm H






This tin is 5 mm less wide and 5 mm less deep than the original but is a great overall match and in a great condition to work with and only cost $6. Once the blu ray is
out I will start to make the tins overall look more accurate.

ADDITION....

SSB fixed up the main picture and its perfect, many thanks Mike.

Just a test print to see how it turned out. Very happy.

It's looking very good; I would've rounded the corners to make it more vintage-like (that's my 2 cents Wink )...but all in all it fits the look

I just noticed that the inside image shown for your graphic is very similar but says CAIRO EGYPT. Instead it should only say HAMBURG (at least I think so?). This can also be the difference between the Blue Neptun version and the written one but I am not sure.

Your method is exactly what I wanted to do but for a different type of kyriazi tin. Thanks for giving the heads up on dimensions of the Capstan. Your's is looking nice!

Its just a test print J and not even stuck on, will round it off and make it
more screen accurate when better pictures are available. The best bit about using prints is that I can age the label to exactly the same as the screen used.

Good spotting, yes that`s not the correct inner label and it doesnt print up well anyway. Will be updating that pic soon.

Started final work on this and will post pictures once done. It was posted as an inspiration to others to get a replica for very little outlay. I think it will more than fulfil that intention.
