New carrying cases from GW.

Post by Miguelsan » Sat Mar 21, 2015 2:57 am

And they look reasonable to boot. 14.500Y for a 200 figure one. I wonder how resistant will be the plastic, if it's good quality plastic it should compare favourably to KR or Battlefoam ones methinks.

If they are made of the same material as the old ones, they should be very strong. A friend of mine once had his fall off the back of his scooter and get knocked across the road by a car. The case was scratched, but nothing inside was damaged.

The cases are tough for sure, I would hope the fasteners are better than before though. The clip fastener on mine was snapped within a couple of days. :x

Last time I was at M_i_J's place, his eldest decided to use my GW case as a step to get a better view of the table. :D No harm done at all, though I'm really glad he didn't decide to use my Sabol case.

I have 7 GW cases and I am happy with them, though I have also had one clip snap off unexpectedly.

I picked up the larger 'Crusade' case and although it seems much smaller than my older big GW case, it does keep a shit tonne of models just like the vids show. I'm currently only using it to transport my bigger stuff (Skaven ABOM and Screaming Bell) but it holds them in securely and I'm not at all worried about any of the fragile spiky bits breaking off. Best bit is I haven't had to butcher the foam like the old cases just to fit stuff in.

Will bring it along next weekend if anyone wants to have a closer look.
