Very interesting. Are the sponges thick enough (height) to protect the figures? Secondly are you going to put a bottom on the sponges so you can pick an individual sponge without the toys falling?

Nice tutorial on sponge… er slashing? Stabbing? I was wondering how you did the nice cutouts but I see it was a foam cutter.

Really liked the Dice Hall of Shame evil grin

I was thinking of putting in a bottom, dragon. May have to do it going forward.

Yeah, a foam cutter is useful. Thanks for the kind words on the Hall of Shame.

Save the cut outs. Slice them halfway through, maybe 3/4 the way, and then open them up like a clamshell and put a figure inside.

Bobgnar,
Hmmmm..never thought of that.. Thanks!

Bill,
Your vegetation solution is pretty uh.. unique. :-)

Interesting idea. Also took a nice detour in your Buck Rogers and Battlestar Galactica fighter games. Nicely done!

Wolf, thanks. Yeah, I grew up with those 70s retro sci fi shows, and they are a bit nostalgic for me, along with classic Star Trek.
