I’ve relatively recently picked up a Sabol “Army Transport”, after years of
using Chessex boxes, and I’ve gotta say that I’m quite pleased with it.

Great way to transport LOTS of stuff of odd sizes, most certainly including
Full Thrust ships.

I need to modify one of the foam trays to hold pencils and dice and such at
some point before GZGECC, now that I think of it.

Paul, our caster, buys lots of VERY cheap plastic kiddies'
lunch-boxes from a  local surplus and cheap stuff store - they are
various sizes, mostly around 10" x 8" x 3" or so. They cost him a couple of
quid each, and usually have some horrible gaudy sticker on
the front that peels off - you're left with a fairly sturdy plastic
case with snap closures and a handle (OK, in a nasty colour of plastic
usually, but at least they are not going to get mistaken for pistol cases!!)
that, with a foam liner added, easily holds either
figures or 2-3 25mm vehicles; I suspect they would also do for
starships with a suitable liner shape. An extra advantage is that
no-one is likely to steal what they probably think contains your
kids' sandwiches and packet of crisps!  ;-)

Funny down here no-one bats an eye if you use pistol cases for
carrying other stuff. Of course almost no-one bats an eye at real
guns. But I do get odd comments when I drive my Ferret.
