Figures in Comfort used to supply a rather useful foam tray with 24 slots each 65 x 30 mm (I used the 25mm deep version). Anyone aware of someone supplying a tray with similar sized slots? My searches have turned up nothing from the obvious suppliers and I'm not totally keen on the 'pluck your own' customisable trays. |

I hate to say this, but make your own. Buy high density foam and cut with scissors to size of your carrying box, then cut pockets for the figures. I do this for all of my figs, ships, planes, etc. The cost should be $20 USD – $30 USD for a 2" x 4' x 8' sheet of foam. I got my last one on Amazon, but an upholstery or sewing store should have it in various thicknesses. |

That is another option – I went DIY for my 2mm collection. The more typical ~50x25mm slots are great for a lot of my 1:144 vehicle collection, but later tanks and anything with a long gun really need that extra length. |
