Similar, but I think the Dragon Tower tin is wider relative to the height.
I'm not sure, though; I only had a brief time to examine it. I haven't yet
seen the Challenge set anywhere but in your review.
I'm not sure I even like the tin containers. I almost certainly won't use
them for storage, and they just seem like an extraneous bit of expensive
packaging. I'd prefer it if they marketed a mundane cardboard box version
along with the "collector's tin," perhaps with a difference of a couple of
bucks in price. They could even include special or additional figs in the
tin version.
Dave!
