Ideas for miniatures storage

[norbertJones]

Hey, MNblockhead your Idea ain’t bad. But for me, I would like to make a custom storage area for the D&D or any other material that I wanna store or carry around. In that way I don’t lose any amount of space and all my things would be in a compatible storage. And for this I have a good service that I had been using for the past few years, the best builders of custom cabinet in Newmarket. They provide an assistance to all the sort of cabinetry as per the needs and necessities of the customer. They are customer friendly and help understand the need and also suggest better options if available. They don’t force their idea into us but incorporates our idea into theirs.

Sorry if that's not true, but the last post sounds a bit like a bot

Anyway, wouldn't standard wargaming cases and boxes work for WizKids, too? I'm thinking about something like that: https://www.safeandsound.pl/en_GB/index. In the end, a miniature is a miniature.

I have been using one from the cases from Army Case for a long time now. I can highly recommend it since it is solid and has been through a lot of travels and adventures with me

i found an old card catalog on facebook marketplace. It works great and looks a lot cooler than plastic tackle boxes I used to use.

Yeah, the plastic storage bins are a must have. I've been collecting for a while now, so I actually have my bins labeled by monster types, so there's Humanoids, Plant Things, Giants, Ogres & Trolls, PCs & NPCs, Flying Things, Dragons, Abominations & Constructs, Undead, etc. That's just for the plastic monsters of course, any metal ones are in a padded case.

I've recently got into the habit of organizing individual sessions into gallon zip lock bags, or sandwich bags. I tend to use a lot of miniatures and it really helps keep stuff organized at the table for quick retrieval. I'll lump props I'm going to use into the same bag.

the feldherr boxes are good for storage but not transportation.

I tend to use these old wooden lettercabinets (not sure what they are called in English), which I've attached to the wall of my livingroom.

The trick is to find one that is of the right size to fit Wizkids minis, and obviously a lot of the larger miniatures are not going to fit. But these cabinets are perfect for storing medium sized creatures and most dungeon decor.

Sometimes they are called Shadow boxes.
