First time out of the vault
Or more accurately a Nuka Cola Quantum Crate.
I have designed and started to build myself a Crate of 6 glowing Nuka Cola Quantum. I will endeavor to post some pictures as soon as its completed.
The liquid glows when the bottles are in the crate, and im experimenting with even making it glow when you take it out of the crate under certain circumstances. Its also completely safe to drink, and tastes great. Each bottle has a Nuka Cola Quantum label (with the text "quantum" carefully cut through so as the glowing liquid can be seen though that part of the label) and also a Nuka Cola Quantum bottle cap.
The crate itself looks similar to, and is based on the crates that can be found in Fallout 3, and can easily be customised with different variations of logos (pipboy, nuka cola, nuka cola quantum) in the production stage. Its carefully distressed, and then fully varnished to first age, and then maintain the correct appearance. The crate contains all the electronics to cause the drink to glow when in the crate (as i say im still experimenting with the idea of glowing outside the box), and is run by 2xAA batteries that will last approximately 2 weeks, if the device is left on constantly (still experimenting with this as well).
What I would like to know is, depending on the final out come and look of the Crate, would any one be interested in buying one. I think it would great on a table at a convention, at another gamers get together, or just as an ornament for a fallout fans home. Im not putting any details about buying them here (the prototype isn't even built yet), this is more like market research.
I am also aiming to make more high quality Fallout props and art. I would love to get your response on this idea.
Cheers Mjaf
(NB. I can quite understand that some people may see this as a terrible idea and quite enjoy tearing apart this post. However, i am interesting in any and all constructive comments and criticisms)

But like I said, I love the way you described it, it's a brilliant idea.
