Storing your Scum

By PhantomFO, in X-Wing

Previously, everything was nice and neat. Rebels went in the Rebel case, Imperial went in the Imperial case. Now we have this new faction, and everything is muddy.

The Most Wanted models are easy. They're painted like Scum, so they go in the Scum case. The Firespray has also moved ing the Scum case, as Boba Fett is pretty much the face of that faction. But the HWK has me torn! Kyle and Jan are the most iconic pilots of that ship, but the brown paint job seems like it fits better with the Scum and Villains.

How are you handling what is sure to be a controversial issue?

Good post! I have also moved the Firesprays to teh Scum case, which helps more easily make better room for Decimators in the Imperial Case.

However, the HWKs are staying with the rebels. In the event that I ever geta 3rd HWK I will likely add one to the Scum case.

Buy a second one.

More trays for my Battle Foam case, once the custom tray creator gets the templates for Wave 6.

Everything Scum goes in Scum. After all, they're the greedy, self-centered ones, so they get all the ships they're supposed to "share" with the other factions.

I carry my Scum in scumbags, and keep my Villainy in villas.

I've got a plano 1374 with 4 trays packed full of stuff as it is. 1 tray each for Rebel and Imperial ships, and 2 for cards, bases, dials etc. I bought an extra tray to accommodate the scum ships. Trouble is that it's not going to fit in the 1374. So either I can switch it out as needed, or carry it extra.

Buy a second one.

Indeed. Such a magnificent ship as the HWK deserves to be in multiple cases. In fact, you should just go ahead and get a third HWK to put in the Imperial case just to tease them.

Way ahead of the curve on this one... I have two of these babies, so I got plenty of room for everybody!

As for their crossings over. I never liked Boba in the Imppies... Hel-Nah! I have four HWK's one is for the Rebs, two are for Scum, and the fourth one floats around where I need it.

I actually ordered the wrong case over a year ago when I was trying to upgrade, and my thinking was I could use it eventually. That has now happened. Also, I haven't played my Rebel HWK for over a year, so that decision was easy. In with the Scum! And my two Firesprays will live in the new Scum Case also, because the compartment where I keep my Imperial Large Ships had become quite crowded with two Firesprays, a Shuttle, and a Decimator. Now everyone has their own space.

I have one of the big Plano tackle boxes and S&V may finally max it out. Gonna unbox everything tonight and see what I can do.

Ugh, I didn't even consider storage yet.

I have 2 HWK's so 1 of them migrated over to Scum. I never could get a 2 HWK list to work anyway.

And I have 3 Firesprays. 1 will stay with the Imperials the other will lead the Scum. 1 left unopened

An excuse for a new kr case it is...

My imperial and rebel cases are full anyway. :D

The starvipers alone have overwhelmed any hope I had at containing the ion tokens.

I keep mine in a hexagonal storage carrier. it is not optimal but I can say I keep mine in a hive of scum and villainy.

Edit: The storage blocks come out individually.

I have a Plano 732 for each faction. There is still enough room in each for a few more waves.

My biggest problem is that up until now, I have kept everything in their blisters. I felt like it was the safest and cheapest way to transport them. Unfortunately, the Most Wanted blister takes up way too much space. Maybe I can cut it down, but it's still awfully wide. I fear I may have to ditch the blisters now.

Bought another HWK, painted it Rebel grey/red livery, and put the original brown HWK in with S&VzgpFpVo.jpg

They go where they fit.

I've a binder for cards, and I normally keep ship titles with the ship type... but now I seem to be leaning towards keeping all title cards in a new upgrade/title section of the binder, simply because of the cross-faction titles for the Firespray and Y-wing.

<shakes fist towards the heavens, forsaking the gods and their cruelty>

Well, I managed to fit two of everything in my existing Plano. Had to add a small bin in the top section that's S&V only right now, and that's pretty much maxed it out.

As for the cards, I had to go to a second binder, so I have one for ships, one for upgrades.

We might just need a new Crab's Cases video...

Get it done buddie-boy-ole-pal!

Just ordered my Wave 6. When it gets here, they're going in a 2.5" BF pluck foam tray and a PACK 216 - for now. A custom tray will be ordered once the shapes are available.
