    Not sure if right place, but I'm wondering as I have mixtures of cases filled with seraphon bits etc, and was wondering what your thoughts on a Crusader case, as I need to store 12 Rippers/90 skinks, 4 Stegadons and some carnos and Kroxs etc, and was thinking would it all fit in it without too much hassle or breakages?

    I cannot advise enough NOT to buy a foam case. They're a complete pain in the arse for transporting models. Look into magnetic solutions instead.

    Sadly already got them, and I can work with the foam its mainly just for storage and the odd transport if I go by plane.

    I have both and the magnetic solution is far easier than the form.

    I find the foam good for storing models and keeping them clean in the case rather than sat in a drawer getting dusty.

    Basically everything is in foam apart from flyers and behemoths they all have magnets stuck to the underside of the base then a magnetic sheet is glued into the bottom of a plastic container or use a steel container, biscuit tin etc.

    What size magnets do you use? I've considered magnetising mine but can't find magnets thick enough for the bases.

    You want them around 3mm thick, rare earth magnets range in sizes but the two I use the most are 5*3mm and 10*3mm
