If you are not doing this for resale, and all you want are some boxes for display, why not buy repro ones?
There are plenty of sellers producing repro boxes for main brands such as Corgi and Dinky.
Or you can buy a CD of the templates and print them yourself.

Some of the original collection is also missing such as the transporter trailer, that's why I'm going for this option.

I actually belong to a military collecting site. I don't collect anything myself but I find that the provenance requested by some members there points me towards some very interesting historical pieces which I am avidly interested in. There is a good bit of banter too between the civvies and us old soldiers.

Funny, I have a LOAD of the old Original Star Wars stuff in the Attic at my parents house. Unfortunately, being a kid at the time I actually played with it...... The idea that I should leave it in it's box because it'll be worth a fortune in 30 odd years time didn't cross my mind.... shame really. Wonder how much you could get for a 3 legged AT-AT these days ??

Ditto, apparently Han Solo carbonite is quite rare, unfortunately mine tended to get filled with water and shoved in the freezer so most of the paint is chipped off.
