I must say, I am consistently more and more impressed, doubly so because I'm in the market for a new bag that'd stop my guardsman going to pieces every game.

Yes its looking better and better. As a guard player who has to transport his army in 4 different fragging bags i am seriously looking at the big one...just gotta figure out how to load it out...

I really, really hope you get an European distributor.

i just love the customizABLE options

Very nice stuff. The more I see, and hear about these guys the more I want to buy their products. I will am defenetly considering getting one of these bags.

they look great Any chance of a demo on how the army transport trays will fit inside? I heard they're supposed to be made to fit them too...?

Necros - Sorry, but we had to design the bags in such a way that they DID NOT fit any GW or Sabol style foam. This is for IP reasons and because we wanted to maximize the space in our bags.

This must be a rumor but I'm here to tell you that Army Transport trays will not fit in any way in our bags. Sorry.

Hope this helps

Ditto. This could be a great solution. (And given that I've spent the last week plucking out foam cubes to fit my Orcs, the time savings would be worth the price).


@Sgt Diablo: How much would shipping to Canada be (approximately) for the 1520?

Asmodi - International is a bit high since the bag is so large and does not compress or fold on itself. To Canada your looking at $45.00 US for shipping. We have yet to ship these so that price may go down. We are also looking at working with FedEx to reduce our bulk price shipping once April 15th comes around.

Also, the trays are 15.5 inches x 12 inches.

Sgt. Diablo,

Is there any chance that you'll be posting exactly what each of the army pre-loads will look like so we can judge whether to use those or go custom?

And just reading you last post... $45 for shipping, wow. I guess I'll have to wait until you find a canadian retailer.

Just so you know since your new at this. A product review is usually done by a 3rd party. You've produced what professionals like to call a "commercial".

Linkdead: hysterical. gales of laughter.

BATTLE FOAM NEW BAG VIDEO AND PRODUCT REVIEW

Nowhere does it mention in the thread otherwise.

OMG I WANT ONE!

Too bad I have no money right now. When my B-Day comes around I will probably have enough $$ to get a fully customized 1520 bag (and I fully plan on it!)

Looking Great!
BLARGAG!!!

LINKDEAD - Does it really matter what the thread is called. Really, its just a video showing people what the bags can do. I don't think anyone really cares about the title of the thread is as long as the information in the thread is relevant.

Why does everyone keep saying tread instead of thread?

I'm really thinking about getting one of the PACK 432 bags. The only thing I'm hesitant about is the side loading but with my upcoming IG army this may be the best option for fitting the whole army in one bag. I guess we'll get feedback on whether the side loading is an issue or not.

@Linkdead: I guess you have a point if you didn't know that Sgt. Diablo is the owner of Battle Foam but really that's a pretty silly thing to complain about.

Yeah for real, who gives a gak if it is a commercial or a review or what the thread is titled? All we care about is seeing what the thing does. Hahaha, that is such a weird thing to complain about.

That bag looks pretty bitchin, I may need to get the big daddy for my IG as they will be growing by a lot with the new codex. I was thinking about another sabol mondo carrier, forgot the name, but it does not fit all of my marines. I need more efficiency in storage. I may be picking one of these bad boys up come May!

Romeo, I'll be purchasing one of the PACK 1520s shortly, but a few questions.

Would it be possible to get a mixed preload out? When I goto my NVLGS (hour and a half drive) I have to bring my army, my husband's army and whatever commissioned pieces I've completed. So while I can forsee myself buying large amounts of trays from you in the future, it would be nice to get say 2 Troop Trays, a SM Tank Tray, an IG Tank Tray, 3 Fantasy Cav Trays, etc. with the initial purchase.

When will preorders be charged? At time of order or when they are ready to ship?

Also I just noticed in the other thread that the 1520 is only be preloaded in the lower section? so the upper section is shipped empty?

Great looking bags! The pricing is a little out of my budget at the moment since I bought foam for my Sabol case from you a couple of weeks ago. When I need more storage though I think I will head your way.

Sgt. Diablo, sorry I'm still not sold on the vertical loading of the 432. But I promise when I finish my Ork army and start a guard army I'll buy the 1532.

Apart from the obvious coolness of not only the custom top peices and wording on the trays but the ability to not only carry an army but perhaps an entire collection around is awsome in itself.

Thread retitled.

SGT Diablo, how large are the slots for the foam, Do saurus warriors fit in or are they a problem. (you know with the tails and stuff)

And is there a size which is good for saurus cavalry or should I custom order the traces for them.

Do you plan on doing anything for pre cut foam for the Flames of War game ? As a retailer and a player of the game this would be great due in fact most historical gamers have more than one army and the convention scene has been growing for FOW events.

I'd like to know if the slots would handle Gears from Heavy Gear, or if we'd need to get stuff custom cut... Being the line dev, I haveto carry a massive number of Gears for conventions, so right now my storage is a Plano dual rifle case.

How many Leman Russes could you fit into each bag, as I currently have no way to carry all mine.

Ghost In The Darkness - This depends on the case you buy. We can fit 5 Leman Russ per 3" tray. Since you can fit 6 inches of foam in a 432 and 22 inches of foam in a 1520, then you can do the math on that one. Simply put, lots and lots of tanks.

Jbuckmaster - I'm not really sure what Gear From Heavy Gears are. I'm sure we could custom cut something for you, but I would need you to call us and discuss the options. We can make it work so let us know.

Empire 1 - Yes, Flames of war are on our radar in the near future. We are actually planning on a small case for Warmachine and Flames of War type games. Game systems that have very small models like Epic or Battle Fleet. The small case will be out for Christmas and fit most smaller game systems with special foam. (P.S. that's a big sneak announcement that I'm hoping not to many people catch on to)

goffnob deffsmakka - Models with tails and dynamic poses are always a bit more difficult to fit. We normally ask people to trace these models and send them in as custom orders.

Daggermaw - I know its hard to believe in a top standing case, but all of the GW hard cases are carried the same way. The problem with the GW cases is that their foam is lose and models bounce all around inside of them. Our Cases and foam fit everything snug and keep things in place. I carry my whole ork army and my IG army in just two of the 432 cases. Never had a problem.

Cyporiean - Preorders are charged at time of order. We actually cut your foam first, and then we attach the bag. Yes, the upper section is shipped empty in the pre load out. This is because of the cost of foam to us. We are putting in almost $300.00 of foam plus the bag for just $275.00. Also, pre load outs will be army specific so the case you buy will have one army that goes with it. We will be selling a kit out for each army with foam only. This way if you already own the bag and want foam for it, you can order a different army and just swap out the foam.

Hope that helps everyone.

Thanks for the order so far. We have less than 10% of the first shipment left. Please call us if any of you guys want to pre order.
