Andy's Toy Chest

I love your chest!!! Pretty movie cannon and so beautiful! ^-^ Looks wonderful with your toys around, I’d love to see some movie scenes :slight_smile: Congratulations pal’!

that looks amazing!!! i’m trying to mkae my own toy chest but i need help. Does anyone have any measurements for the toy chest and maybe a couple pics of the toy chest besides the ones from disneyscreencaps.com

i was also thinking of just buying and painting this toy chest but i don’t know if the measurements are good and big enough to actually put my entire toy story collection in it? amazon.com/Badger-Basket-Bar … B00005CAJK

Thanks, the height is suppose to be 50 cm
And 72 cm wide. :slight_smile:

Some pics for size comparison next to other figures.

thanks! do you think this chest would be a good size? amazon.com/Badger-Basket-Bar … B00005CAJK

To be honest it will not be perfect , u will better find rounded top (like half circle ) for accurate shape, its also not smooth so I think it won’t be easy painting it, try flea market or antiques stores tell me what u find there.

well i was thinking of getting a thin piece of wood to cover the front side of the chest so when it was time to paint, i could just paint over it

And what about the top that isn’t rounded enough …

i was thinking i would build a new top once the bottom was finished

Wish u good luck , still I think it’s better to search for a more accurate one which already look like in the movie, in the places I mentioned before, after u won’t find better one u can purchase this and try to modify it to look like in the movie.

:arrow_right: Don’t forget the sizes I told u it’s the most important part before u decide to buy it.

thanks, what kind of material did you use to cover the chest, what kind of paint did you use, and how did you make the chest shiny?

I used thick Bristol board to cover it , painted with Acrylic paints , and glossed it by laminated the Bristol after the color is dry.

Hi Shay! :wink:

Hello Josh :slight_smile:

Well, I bought myself this chest, and I’m very pleased with it. It fits all the toys in my collection and I’ll start fixing the details as soon as possible.
