Just wondering if anyone has any solutions for storing and transporting a bunch of fliers, Nightscythes specifically. I've got 6 of these things and the large plastic tub I have them in (stuck to sheet metal with magnets on the flight bases) is rather clunky and a pain to transport.

Well you could try getting some foam to cut for lining some boxes of pork tenderloin. Sans the pork.
They are made of sturdy heavy cardboard with an easy to close and keep shut front folding door and they stack well.

I would look into Battlefoam (if you have disposable income). They let you design custom foam trays for your needs. Alternatively if disposable income is not your strong suit you can never go wrong with the old standby of a shoe box lined with bubble wrap.

I got one of those plastic tubes with wheels. I then store the flyers in foam within it. 6 vendettas/valks that can be wheeled about and fit inside my trunk with ease.

You're in America, go to Walmart and look at the gun cases. They're cheap and you can often customise the interior foam quite easily with a blade. 4 pistol case (deep - ideal for vehicles etc) I wanted was ~USD11 however the NZ stockist marks it up to ~NZD120. Lockable, light/water/dust proof, pretty much ideal.

KR has custom cut foam for them. You can fit 2 to a box, but they are only 1/3 deep, so you have space for other stuff as well.

I use battlefoam as well and while its pricier than a gun case, you can use their online tool to custom cut the trays and pick your depth. Really cant be beat.

I use battlefoam's 3" pluck foam. One section will hold a helldrake and base with ease and I am planning on getting a section for my vendetta soon.

Battlefoam, 1520XL with pluck trays. Best value for the $. lets you maximize your tray space, if you buy their precut trays you're wasting money.

Night Scythes are easy to transport, they tesselate inside each other. :p Just get any case, some foam sheets, and stack them.
