What do you guys have for me? I have a bunch! |

I made a little cabinet which takes A4 filing trays as drawers. About 7 of them. That is big enough to store all my ww2 tanks, and it is on castors for ease of movement |

Button magnets from Dollar Tree etc), Glue one under the hull and one inside your box. Change magnet size as dictated by the weight of the model. you could also glue a magnet in the box and washers under you hull. If the height was wrong you could use more or less washers. |

Mine are stored in Weston boxes ( link ) or A4 box file ( link ). |

I store mine in unmarked brown cardboard boxes. I recommend another method. |

Thanks all! 79th PA LMAO! |

I use cardboard trays that stack inside boxes (each tray holds about 25-30 vehicles.) Not good if travelling, though… ;-) |

I use plastic underbed storage boxes lined with large bubble wrap to prevent the models from sliding around. Fits about 30 to 50 per box. Mike Bunkermeister Creek |

As mine rarely get played with, the vehicles of all kinds are displayed in a wall cabinet. The infantry are magnetically based and stored in metal filing trays.
Most of my WW2 gaming is with my 1/144 models, which are based magnetically and stored in Really Useful Box inserts, lined with steel paper. One insert holds about 30 tanks or trucks. |

Another vote for Bisley cabinets. I buy them at the Container Store in the U.S. |

Manuscript mailing boxes. The lid tabs don't fold into the inside of the box. |

Thanks again for your suggestions gentlemen. |

Most hardware stores carry plastic tackle boxes or similar. Such as: link Look for ones which are square and have flat bottoms and adjustable inner walls and are stackable. I find that I can fit almost all 20mm scale WWII vehicles in these boxes. The exceptions are things like the Tiger, King Tiger, M26 Pershing and other huge vehicles, but your average Panzer IV, T-34, KV, trucks etc. will fit great. |
