Coming from the world of D&D where all my minis are basically just stored in tins and boxes loosely, I really don’t want to do that with my first Warhammer army.

So that’s basically why I’m asking, how do you folks store and transport your armies?

All my minis have steel discs glued to their bases to attach to my custom painting handle, so they can be magnetically attached to things.

    I have a large wide rubbermaid container that I’ve bolted a metal plate to. Magnets on the underside of the bases of the minis. Minis stick to the rubbermaid and don’t shift around. It’s certainly some upfront work, but once it is set up, it makes transportation easy.

    The other common method, which I used to primarily use is a dedicated minis case that has foam trays. It works ok to carry uniformly shaped and size infantry, but it struggles with bigger or weirdly posed minis, and the foam can still rub on edges over time.

      NGL I’m probably going to go with a Rubbermaid container

      I’ve just got to get a good layout planned then find a good sized container for them

        If you magnetize, just get the biggest one you can easily carry. No real need to plan out the interior, since all the minis can stick to the bottom.
