Quick question:
Anyone knows of any foam/sponge A4?
I store and tranport my miniatures with boxes with magnets on the base, and though this works wonderful for infantry and most small vehicles, for big vehicles is not great.
Bigger miniatures slide on the box, and any smaller elements outisde the main body can get damanged.

Thust, I though of getting some foam and cut it to shape to lock my bigger miniatures in position inside the box. Custom for the most important miniatures.
Any ideas?
I do own some miniature foam trays and I could get some more, but I was wondering if you know of any other cheaper alternative.

Polyurethane packing foam is what you're looking for, it does come in different firmness levels. I'm not sure what to look for in terms of firmness when buying online, I've only ever bought it from rubber suppliers by going into the store and having a feel of the different options and buying the one I find best.

If you want pluck foam, that's just polyurethane packing foam that has been pre-cut into squares so you can easily pluck out squares to fit an object, if the plucking aspect isn't something you need then you can just buy big sheets of the stuff that isn't pre-cut.
