I wonder if these are just a one-off marketing thingie for when they attend the MotoGP races or a ltd. edition to be sold…

I would love some of those boxes.

They must just be vinyl wrapped.

I was at the Silverstone event yesterday and spoke to the SBD/DeWALT guy who had those boxes made, the night before. These are only for promotion. They have 13 sets made to show at (MotoGP) events throughout Europe.

An additional 2 sets have been made for the Tech3 Yamaha MotoGP team which they will use on their raceweekends.

There is a lot of interest from customers for these boxes actually, but he said it is too costly to make.

Here are 2 pics I took yesterday from the one they had on display..

It’s really nice, but I don’t think the vinyl will withstand daily (ab)use and exposure to the elements over time.

Thanks for the info, I almost want to get some stencils and spray paint and try it.

Those are vinyl wrapped. Maybe if they would provide the artwork templates they used, as a free download to ToughSystem owners. So they can take it to a local printer, have it printed and apply it themselves.

By no means it will still be expensive as it is all printed on vinyl.

A cheaper option would be just a set of stickers…

If they did a download with the templates you could add your own designs.

There’s a competition idea for you dewalt!
