I am getting into 20mm for Chain of Command, but I am at a loss on how best to store them. How do you store yours? |

I bought some of the foam storage trays. The ones with 1" opening work great for 20mm figs. For vehicles, I use the Sterilite plastic boxes with 2 clips. I put some thin foam in the bottom of those to keep the vehicles more stable |

I put the vehicles on bases with magnetic sheeting on the underside and store them in metal tool boxes. I base infantry on different siza washers and store them in plastic draw boxes lined with magnetic sheets |

Well, loose in plastic bags, actually. But I'm cheating. It's really 1/72. |

I place them on thick cardboard sheets and store them on shelves. |

Magnabase under bases, the infantry in either the drawers in a metal stationery cabinet or steel paper lined drawers of plastic stationery cabinets, the vehicles in steel paper lined box files. |

Same way I store everything:

Extra Crispy---how do you stand being so organized! I am in awe. |

If only I were that organized. Yeah I was thinking of just magnets with a steel sheet in the box like usual, they tempt me to store them in the foam trays but it just doesn't seem like the best way… |

Steel filing trays with magnetic bases on individual figures. |

Same way I store everything else. Magnetic sheet on the figure bases, A4 box files lined with steel paper. My old Airfix figures from the 1970s are jumbled up in a big compartmentalised box though. |

I use metal bases. I then line the craft store scrapbook boxes with self-adhesive sheet magnet. That is for figures. My vehicles are not on bases, so they are on a shelf in my figure cabinet. Tom |

I use plastic storage boxes, like the Plano fishing tackle storage systems. I line each section with some non-slip draw liner.

Metal cookie boxes from the thrift store and a metal tool chest – ditto. Magnet on the bottom of each figure's base. |
