Where do I get started? Does anyone have a recommendation, based on their own experiences on how to go about getting started? Are there some manufacturers better than others? Is it a matter of taste? Do I get rubbermaid boxes and actual gamer foam? Should I get custom cut foam or basic stuff?

Help me out here people. There is so much out there and I have nowhere local that carries it all so I am stuck with mail order, so I can't get an idea of what is good or what is bad before I buy (which I HATE), but the shoe boxes and cafeteria trays are overflowing at the moment.

I've got four full armies and they are only growing, so whatever I do will need to be able to expand.

HELP!?!]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/623979/7370138.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/623979/7370138.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/623979/7370296.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/623979/7370296.page GMT
Look at what you have, and how much you are willing to spend. Custom foam is pricy, but nice to have. Before I got my KR, I was packing tanks and all my other non-infantry minis is scraps of foam. Took forever to pack/unpack. It’s so nice just to be able to drop things into the right sized slot and be done with it. You can get pluck foam for less, but it’s generally not as space efficient. Battlefoam will laser cut exact trays to your specs, but you pay top dollar for that.

This is a topic that comes up a lot, so a little research should get some hits. One problem is that there is no right answer, just a lot of opinions. And what’s best for one army might not be the best for another.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/623979/7370326.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/623979/7370326.page GMT

What I really like is that you can customise them to suit your individual army. We generally use the Tyrant size case (above), but they also do other sizes:

Admittedly not much to look at, but I don't care
