Which one, the one with studs sticking up thru the sockets? I think that's a Hansen socket tray. The other one is a molded plastic tray that comes with SO socket sets.

That video is a little funny, why didn't they compare the storage space of their box vs Cornwell and Craftsman too?

The on at the back of the drawer on an angle is a Snap On.

ZOMGZ WE HAVE MORE CUBES THAN THIS BOX, AND MORE SQUARES THAN THIS BOX!

The only tool I saw in that video was the one doing the talking.

The one behind the Hansen is not really a socket holder; but rather the package tray the sockets came in.

So, what's the deal with the Snap-On marketing geared towards the Sesame Street crowd, anyhow?

Is this their target demographic?

I'd be insulted, were I a Snap-On customer...

Someone posted an extended version of that video showing the same guy putting a Matco box through a hydraulic crusher; I didn't like watching that.

See, now THAT is something that would seem to appeal to most of the people out there.

If you want to demonstrate how strong your box is compared to everyone else, instead of crap like "squares and cubes" or toy blocks, put your box and all of it's direct competitors through a crusher!

Start ramping up the pressure - start at 100lbs on each box, and show the damage that each take.

I'd be much more receptive to marketing like that...

The ways I have seen a few boxes go up for sale, someone didn't pump up the brakes on a car, or brought a car to a shop and shouldn't have been the one pulling it in (customers), or in a truck, that was rear ended.

If a Snap~on box, doesn't deform due to a car accident, maybe we should be driving them?
