Ishagu Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 Well, slowly but surely my 30k army has now grown in size, and I really want to look after my completed models so they aren't damaged over time or in transit. I have various larger infantry models that can't be transferred in the normal GW cases I own... EG: Warmaster Horus, and other things like my Resin Contemptor which definitely feels more delicate than the GW plastic Dreads... Is there any custom case/foam maker you guys have used to store these minis? Or any cases in particular that have been useful for the larger and more delicate models. Horus' Hammer looks like it would snap off under any amount of pressure lol Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/291749-how-do-you-guys-store-and-transport-your-larger-hh-minis/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
OwlandMoonGuy Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 Battle Foam is certainly a leader in this space. Here's an example and these trays are 99% stock. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v699/OwlandMoonGuy/IMG_1564_zps03e2fca9.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v699/OwlandMoonGuy/IMG_1549_zps2970ca42.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v699/OwlandMoonGuy/IMG_1547_zps51797cb1.jpg They cover a lot of other game lines too. http://us.battlefoam.com/ Cheers, -OMG Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/291749-how-do-you-guys-store-and-transport-your-larger-hh-minis/#findComment-3703635 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Millicant Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 I have to echo Battlefoam. I have their bag and foam trays for my armies and they are top notch. Custom trays too - pretty easy to design on their page. They've also recently released a set of Horus Heresy specific trays but I'm not sure what they're set up to store.

Ishagu Posted June 1, 2014 Author Share Posted June 1, 2014 OK, those are pretty awesome. I just had a go on their custom tray creator but they don't have the options for Horus or Mortarion... I've e-mailed them so hopefully they'll update soon.

LupusAegis Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 and of course the other option, and a little closer to home would be http://www.krmulticase.com/ . :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/291749-how-do-you-guys-store-and-transport-your-larger-hh-minis/#findComment-3703697 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaeron Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 I'd recommend either KR or Figures in Comfort here. GW's stuff is absolutely fine for your rank and file - but it's the bigger stuff that'll need the more specialist slots that those two companies do that'll be ideal.

Brofist Posted June 2, 2014 Share Posted June 2, 2014 I always felt that carrying bags are pretty expensive for what you get. So I use a pelican case for moving small armies (I already had one for work). For moving lots of models I put my trays into a surplus night vision box. Costs $20 and you could run over it with a truck: http://i.imgur.com/XbLql82.jpg http://i.imgur.com/z3IJcxg.jpg http://i.imgur.com/O6Ezd4i.jpg All the foam is pluck 'Blü Foam': http://www.portablewarfare.com/products/ You can get it for even less on ebay or from a FLGs.

MordentHex Posted June 3, 2014 Share Posted June 3, 2014 I got two of these online. As you can see it fits a fellblade rather nicely. each can carry 4 fellblades if i was so inclined and rich. They are perfect for international travel.
