With the release of wave 6, I've been forced to evict my corvette/transport from my my current box. Prior to now, everything fit in here (if anyone's looking for a box and has less stuff than I)

Since Epic is rarely played around here, I've decided to kick the corvette/transport/all epic components out and move them into their own box.

Anyone have a good recommendation for something that will store the current epic ships and the Raider, when it's released? I'd love battlefoam but that's pretty far out of my price range. I'd like to keep it under $30 or so

I'm in the same boat.

Plano 1374 is good.

It's top section seems big enough to fit all 3. You'll have to get confirmation from someone that already has them, but I plan on setting it up with some form of foam. It can be more than 30 though depending on where you get it.

I just weep softly and pay the Battlefoam people. I think it's worth it, I like the Pack 432 that stacks vertically. Fits all my stuff, and that's no small amount. Need to get one more tray for my Scum now.

The CR-90 can fit up top, but I just had to remove mine because I ran out of room in my Plano 1374.

The weapon of choice in my local meta is the trusty Husky toolbox. Some combine it with pluck foam in the bottom layer while other just pile the blisters the ships came in in the bottom. Either way it's great.

$40!?!? That's about $12 less than I paid for the CR-90 to begin with!

I'll wait for SirWillibald 's foam core box to make at home.

theres a deep bottom stanley yellow that works fine too.

I'm doing the same and I still have a plenty of room for the Raider.

14 x X-Wing or Z-95

4 x A-Wing (room for 2 more)

4 x B-Wing

2 x E-Wing (room for 2 more)

6 x Y-Wing

3 x HWK (room for 1 more)

1 x YT-1300

1 x YT-2400

8 x TIE L/n

8 x TIE Interceptors

4 x TIE Advanced

2 x TIE Defenders

2 x TIE Phantoms

4 x TIE Bombers

1 x Slave 1

2 X Lambda Shuttle

1 x VT-49

2 x IG-2000 (room for 1 more)

2 x M3A (room for 2 at least)

2 x Star Viper

1 x CR-90

2 x GR-75

Plenty of room for the Raider

1 x 432 Battle foam.

Well, if I were to go Battlefoam, how would I do it? Specific X-wing trays, or pluck foam? Both? DO the bags come with the trays or do I buy them separately?

On a few trays I went with custom foam designer. Not all of their pre-built is really that space efficient.

But they are pricey too.

That's what worries me. College kid here, so I choose between games and food But I'd like to plan ahead, because I'll have a job over the summer and might splurge a little on a box that I know will fit everything I get for a long while.

I used Plano for a while and thought it was great. Except for Epic which was the point of your post

Plano is perfect for what I've got now, and since I've moved my Epic stuff out it'll last me another wave or two. I just need an Epic box.

I'd consider BF in the future to keep everything together, but price is an issue there. So back to more Plano.

I use Plano trays in a duffel bag for my collection/hobby/obsession. I found a shoebox at Wal-Mart that the Corvette fits in perfectly. A piece of spare foam to support the bow and it works perfectly.

Not sure what I'll do with the Raider yet. But I'll think of something.

battle foam pack 720 holds EVERYTHING!! including the Tantive and TWO transports.. also the pack plus and 216 can zip to it for more space and or future expansions. i am going to use a 216 as my travel case for "game" nights. probably going to get a second 720 shortly once the raider drops.I don't have scum or the outrider/decimater stored on my 720 because they were not out when i designed it..but it holds my fleet of every possible 100 point build and 3 epic ships right now.I also have many extra Ys Bs ties and interceptors due to impulse buys and ace packs..lol but they all fit including 3 falcons as well..when designing it I kept each faction in a separate trey that way when the day comes that i need to expand I can have individual 720 faction bags..That day is nearly here...

I did the same as swedge, designed five custom trays, 1 for rebel small ships, 1 for rebel large ships, 1 for imperial small ships, 1 for imperial large ships and one epic tray. also had room for a 1 inch pluck foam tray.

takes up half the space that my collection occupied before and its not even half full and its so much more comfortable to be able to just take it out and choose what I want to play with.

As i worked it out ordering the 5 custom cut trays seperatley it only worked out for $15 more to get the 720 with the custom loadout, which basically meant i was getting the bag and an extra tray for only $15 more.

Battlefoam also run sales on the 4th of july and black friday for a 25% discount. So see if you can keep that tantive on a shelf for 4 months and save up for the Bag

I would highly recommend it.

I thought my list was large but not compared to you guys.

You are right about space. My single 420 is very compact storage wise and my bag is 1/2 the size of the 720 (I have 1/2 the fleet).

But even so I have 3 Epic ships and room for 2-3 more.

I haven't gotten any Epic Ships yet. When I do, they will likely sit on my dresser when not in use. I'll have to devise some means of transporting them.
