Hey I was just trying to find a good way to transport my models and tanks. The GW cases are pretty crappy I have one for my other army and the foam isn't very good. Also theres no way to fit tanks in their like my ork battlewagons.

I was wondering what other people use, and if they have other suggestions or ways or transporting their armies. I've checked out some websites and I don't really want to pay like $100.00 for a case...

Anyways, if anyone has any suggestions, that would be great.

Dunno, lots of people at the GW I go to cut the foam to fit vehicles, though ork ones are shaped oddly.

Personally after using the old GW stuff, i highly recommend everyone make the swap to BattleFoam

I would suggest battlefoam as well. But if your looking for cheap then definately cut your own.

Third on the battle foam once you really look at what your getting the price is very reasonable ... ie they hold a hell of allot more models than anyone else out there for a slight increase in cost, not to mention the durability and look

I have become a very strong advocate of the pistol case.

I wrap important figures in toilet paper and then put them in a cookie box. Unimportant or unpainted figures are put with vehicles in an old Land Raider box. Then I just drive carefully and try to play small games

They have good quality cases and are having monthly deals check um out!!!

They shall be my finest warriors, these men who give of themselves to me. Like clay I shall mold them, And in the furnace of war I shall forge them. They will be of iron will and steely muscle. In great armor shall I clad them, and with the mightiest of guns will they be armed. They are my bulwark against the Terror. They are the Defenders of Humanity. They are my Space Marines, and they shall know no fear.

I bought a large tackle box. Small models go in the slots, while the large ones fit in the bottom. Just use something to fill space in the bottom so they don't slide around.
