What do you use to carry and transport your miniatures?

Just seeing what other options there are out there to transport miniatures, other than the battle foam hordes/warmachine bags.

I mean for heroclix I just use a stanley tool organizer. http://www.impresstools.com/Product-Large/1-92-050.jpg

Plano toolboxes. The ones with inserts you can add or take out. Also the deeper ones for larger minis.

Tackle Boxes work ok. I have used one I got from Walmart to move some WHFB models, and it was really nice because it had three trays and a very deep bottom area.
Thanks!

I used walmart tackle boxes for the longest time for my 40k stuff, but found they started to take there toll on my paint, so I switched everything to Sabol foam and bags.

But if you are using prepainted minis I think tackle boxes are the way to go, I use one for my D&D minis.

I should have added, I rarely get an army more than assembled. So tackle boxes are fine if no paint.

I use an army transport, but all of the mainstream ones are pretty similar. If you want to go cheaper, I've seen people get good results from mattress foam (the lumpy kind with alternating bumps and depressions).

I use almost exclusively Sabol and Portable Warfare bags (share foam insert sizes)..

But I also have several Plano "pistol" or "tool" cases.. found at Walmart for 11 bucks.. pluck foam and eggcrate foam.. love them too!

I like the Portable Warfare bags, especially with more options for colors.
If only there was a red one.

I also like the fact that the Sabol Bags can be custom embroidered.

I went the expensive way, I got a Kaiser Rushforth quad case, my loadout has enough room for 8600 points of CSM. I love it, even if it was $250
