Antrepo has just released a 3rd icon set of container boxes that really blows away just about all other icon sets I’ve ever seen. The icon set is available as a free download for both Mac and PC operating systems.
If you recall, Antrepo is the same folks that brought you that other impressive container icon pack.

One of my childhood dreams, believe it or not, was to grow up and drive trucks. That was it. I just wanted to drive a big truck. It was a weird thing to strive for at the time, but I think deep down inside, I’d still like to drive a truck. That’s why I’m so fascinated by such simple videos as this one showing a truck towing 2 40-foot trailers behind it.
I used to see these a lot in Miami, but living in New York City, I hardly ever see a truck hauling more than just one container behind it. I need to move to Australia — the country that seems to be the king of these types of road trains.

ANTREPO4, the same group that made those movie posters with brand names, has released this even more stunning set of colored container posters. The posters come in 5 different color combinations mounted in a white frame.
Again, you’ll have to contact ANTREPO4 for pricing and availability.

A. Aronson, a kitchenware company based in New York, has come out with this peculiar little bake set that attempts to recreate the lovely texture and filling of a traditional Hostess Twinkie.
Aptly named the Hostess Twinkies Bake Set, the box contents will allow you to create — in your very own kitchen — up to 8 yellow cakes that resemble the look (but not the exact taste) of a Hostess Twinkie. It really all depends on how creative you get with the ingredients provided I guess.
Anyway, the box set includes a baking pan, spatula, icing injector bag, Twinkies container shaped like the Twinkie the Kid, and a complete recipe booklet.
I’d get this set if only for the Twinkie the Kid container, which A. Aronson sells separately.
You can currently buy this at Urban Outiftters for $26.
