Hey there,

thought I'd share my storage solution for trooper units, both nearly free of charge (used a bit of spare foamboard, that's it) and decent looking:

Apart from the foamboard I've only used the paper inlay from the stormtroopers and a sheet of cardstock. Quite cheap :-)

Looks nice. My one question is how tight did you make the gap? Does it hold the base tight or is there wiggle room?

Somewhat off topic, but I’d always wondered if Star Wars Stormtroopers would need to be called something else in Germany. Now I know.

It's very(!) tight, about 1mm gap to the inner foamboard walls. On the long side there's a roughly 1cm gap.

Once they are fully painted (around 2022, give or take 1-2 years ? ) I might add a top cover with some cheap foam underneath, then it would be safe to shake the whole box, I think. ?

? But keep in mind, they are only called "Sturmtruppen" if you're talking about a whole squad, a single stormtrooper is called "Sturmtruppler" in german. I know, we funny Germans really know how to make things complicated..
