Hey so I have been having issues with my standard cut foam battlecase breaking or scratchig my converted models in transit, anyone have amy suggestions for good boxes to move converted/spindly models?

Magnetized rack trays.

Yep, there's basically no other option that's sound with today's increasingly fiddly/thin models, and similar conversions. Magnets are the only suitable method.

Sorry, Im old-school, what are those and where can I get some?

You get a box, or a tray, or a ziplock container, or etc.., metal on the bottom, then put magnets on the bottom of bases (n52 magnetics work best for large models).

You could go costly and get Magna Racks from Battlefoam.


I bought water/shield tight Ziplock containers (about 18"W x 24"L x 9"H) edit: around that size, i'm guessing base off memory, and put sheet meta on the bottom of it (I had craft foam sheet under the metal 1st) over all cost me 15$ per set, i have 8 of them like that for my armies. All my 4k ish Harlequins points fits in 1.

EDIT: this is what i'm talking about, you can get them much cheaper, i just found the right size, i paid $11USD each for mine https://www.amazon.com/Ziploc-WeatherShield-Quart-Storage-Clear/dp/B01M9CHXGX/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=ziplock+shield+6.6+gal&qid=1573159816&sr=8-1
