So I'm looking for a new way to transport my minis around, and apparently battlefoam is pretty good.
There's only one thing that bugs me about them. They're product review video seems sooooooo suspicious. I know that they're salesmen but the one I saw had them add an artificial twinkle into their teeth at the end for crying out loud! I know that it's probably nothing, but I was wondering if anyone regularly bought from them and if anyone recommended them. Cheers in advance!

I don't have one, but one of the girls in playgroup has one. The thing is solid, really quality. I'll be picking one up when I get a little leeway in minis budget.

I have one, as do 4 other gamers in my group. One even has 2 bags. I picked up a bag trays at GenCon, which they attend every year. Yes, they are trustworthy.

They are very helpful with helping you choose your trays for your army so you get the most bang for your buck.

They are a bit pricey, but I have no complaints.

As for the smarminess in the videos, that's just Romeo goofing off. Take a listen to the 40k podcast sometime and you'll see he's a goofball.

They are Excellent cases. have two of them, and a crap ton of foam.

You get what you pay for, and Battlefoam is probably the best in this area.

I liked my first one enough to buy 3 more and plan to buy at least 2 more plus a ton of foam options.

The twinkle and Romeo's attitude in the ads is partly cause he's a goofball, partly because he's making fun of infomercials(especially that Vince/Shamwow guy).

I did almost laugh myself to death when they sent Sabol a CD letter.

You mean the one that they quickly apologized for because when they sent it they mistook that foam inside a Sabol bag might be made by Sabol?

The same one that was actually an advisory letter for their upcoming patent and NOT a C&D?

Sure whatever, the one Sabol posted on thier website with a response like 2-ish years ago.
I still almost laughed myself to death, unless you'd like to dispute that with a time machine I'm not sure what your point is.

If you were laughing yourself to death, it's cause you misinterpreted what happened or, like the majority of people at the time it happened, only paid attention to the first part.

I would order something from them, but they keep ignoring my emails with questions.
They must be doing well, because they clearly don't want my business.

If the thought of something makes me giggle for longer than 15 seconds, I am to assume that I am not allowed to do it.
