I would definitely buy one of these, and another for my forest ranger niece. I think a recycled box a la Wall-E and EVE would be appropriate too.

Right? “Only you can prevent forest fires!” I saw one recently and noticed he says wildfires. I wonder when that changed.

I also would like a flocked version :)

Love this idea. I’d buy a regular and a flocked version. We it being a division of the government I wonder if they are allowed to make merchandise.
