I'm looking for a place to buy this organiser (or a similarly sized one that accepts the same tubs) in australia:
So far I've found it here on amazon, but only as part of a 4-piece set and I can't ship that to Australia anyway. I already have two of the larger variety (from another stanley knockoff brand) so I just want the smaller one as a more portable case.
Harbor Freight has something very similar. The big one (about twice the size you have shown) is about $9 usd. The small one like this is like $6 or something.

Do they have Harbor Freight in Australia? If not try any cheap/discount tool shop. They should have something similar to what you're looking at getting.
I want the same one so I can swap the tubs between my other organisers. I've found it on element14. Success! https://au.element14.com/duratool/d00416/box-storage-210x338x62mm/dp/1447380?mckv=sCCEqaulR_dc|pcrid|59148083448|pkw||pmt||slid||product|1447380|pgrid|12550800888|ptaid|pla-67795127022|&CMP=KNC-GOO-SHOPPING-1447380&gclid=CjwKCAjwo_HdBRBjEiwAiPPXpHRCHq7OgWFgk_ndc4Vu9pK9VbN7fPCm0JOl2J4utE2GGkMiihdD0RoCYjoQAvD_BwE&gross_price=true
You might find them or similar at Bunnings.
Nice find. I would suggest an Auto One or Supacheap Auto. That’s where I found my Stanley X-Wing holder.

Please tell me it was called the Stanley X-Wing holder. That you found in an auto parts store.
Looks the same as the Flambeau “Quotient” series they sell at Walmart here in the states. Not sure who would sell them in Australia, but you might try searching for that brand name.

Alas, I've just realised that this won't be big enough to hold a range ruler on the inside. Maybe I'll just stick with my current case (the larger version of the one in my original post, purchased form kmart). I can't fit it in my backpack but it holds a squad or three comfortably
Bugger. I was super interested as well.
You could attack a range ruler to the side of it or something. The interior is big enough to hold r2 ruler and movement templates if you remove a row of tubs, but then you have very little room for storing ships and tokens. I think I'll stick with my larger tub for now and just work out a makeshift solution for when I need to fit it in a backpack.
I use those. I have the larger versions for each faction, then pull whatever bins I need to the smaller version to take to a tournament. I love em. I get all mine at Harbor Freight in the US. Not sure if they ship over seas.
and these work for epic and some large ships - https://www.harborfreight.com/tool-storage/part-storage/8-bin-portable-parts-storage-case-93927.html

Ohh! that blue one looks nice! i wonder if the bin sizes match up. Would be coot to differentiate some factions. I suppose I could also just paint my existing ones...lol
The bin sizes should match up. It's the same product from several different companies.
I've got two of those "larger" 20 bin ones now and I just take one of those along to game night. The smaller one looked like a good portable option but I won't be able to fit a large ship in it and still have room for all my gubbins. Where do you put your range rulers?
The 20-bin one is perfect, it has space for rulers, token tubs, card tubs, obstacle/bomb tub, and some tubs for bases and dials. The best part is that by removing two large tubs and adding some foam I have a space that can hold a large ship. It can happily take a falcon, deci, or even a shadowcaster if I make room for the nose guns. Only problem is it's too big for a backpack
