I made own my real life Buffout! Check it out:

It’s really easy to make. All you need is a handful of items.

'''Label:<br /><span style="font-weight: normal">Get the label from this site: [http://www.weeklygeekshow.com/2009/07/fallout_cosplay_accoutrements.php http://www.weeklygeekshow.com/2009/07/fallout_cosplay_accoutrements.php<br />]Scroll down a little until you reach the template for buffout (it’s going to be a link to a jpg file). Once you download it you’re going to have to print it out to scale. It should come out exactly 6 inches long and 2.5 inches tall. An easy way to do this is to toss the picture into microsoft word, where it should automatically get scaled to the correct size.</span>'''

'''Bottle:<br /><span style="font-weight: normal">Next you need the bottle. I got mine from here, [http://www.containerandpackaging.com/item.asp?item=B633 http://www.containerandpackaging.com/item.asp?item=B633<br />]The bottle costs 70 cents but the site charges a surcharge of $10 if your order is under $50. To get around the surcharge I requested the bottle as a free sample. The store allows you to order a single free sample of any product. The only downside is that you still have to pay the $7 shipping cost. Don’t forget to get a matching lid for the bottle: http://www.containerandpackaging.com/item.asp?item=L207PS</span>'''

Now you wait. The bottle and lid should arrive at your door steps in 3 to 5 business days. This is a good opportunity to go out and buy a pack of Altoids. You’ll need them for later.

Once you have the bottle all that’s left to do is stick the label on. I printed my label on regular paper and used permanent [http://www.amazon.com/Scotch-Double-Sided-Tape-roll/dp/B00004Z47L/ref=pd_sbs_op_1 double sided scotch tape] to adhere it to the bottle. A strip of tape at the start and end of the label will hold it on forever.

After you get the label on, fill the bottle with Altoids and screw the lid on, tightly. The lid you purchased has an inner liner that is going to fuse with the rim, and seal the bottle air tight; giving your Buffout that straight-from-the-factory look. Like this:

{| style="width: 100%" cellpadding="8"
| style="vertical-align: top" |
<br /><div id="attachment_1175" class="wp-caption alignnone" style="width: 265px">[http://www.splitreaction.com/wp/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/buffout-factory-sealed.JPG [[Image:buffout-factory-sealed-255x300.jpg|255px|Brand new, factory sealed Buffout]]]

Brand new, factory sealed Buffout

<br /><div id="attachment_1178" class="wp-caption alignnone" style="width: 310px">[http://www.splitreaction.com/wp/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/buffout-out-of-bottle.JPG [[Image:buffout-out-of-bottle-300x225.jpg|300px|Opened bottle of Buffout]]]

Enjoy! These upgraded Altoids should now give you an instant +60HP, +3END and +2STR !*
