[QUOTE="Glyfair, post: 2909512, member: 53"] Storage of large collections is always an issue. My brother & I deal with storing DDM figures and Mage Knight figures (a much larger collection). Our DDM figures are stored in a few different things. We have a rolling cart for our large and huge figures (each drawer is an alignment, with one drawer for multiple alignments). We have compartmentalized tool boxes and tackle boxes for our other DDM figures. One box for each alignment, with the multiple alignment figures in separate areas of the lawful good box. Each alignment is separated by themes, as much as possible. PC oriented figures have areas in all boxes, the other boxes are based on what they have. For example, Lawful Good has a warforged slot. Lawful Evil has an undead slot & a hobgoblin/goblin slot. I've barely played the miniatures game (can count the number of times on one hand). However, we sort by alignment because we keep track of our figures in the Battleplanner program. We use it to find figures we can use, then can see where it's stored by alignment. With Mage Knight, our primary means of storage is baseball card boxes. They are cheap, and have separate slots for sorting (in addition, you can add dividers with sponges usually available where you buy them). For transporting to games I have a great toolbox I found. It has individual little containers within it with two sizes (one twice the size of the other). I have one for accessories, one for tokens (for Mage Knight), one for dice and the rest for battleforces, excess figures. I can just pull out the container I need and bring that to the table.
