As my collection grows I no longer have room in my old sega game gear case to hold all of the figures. I've seen people with big plastic cases perfect for holding all of their figures, and was wondering where I could find one of these. Please give me a link to a website that sells them if you know of one, I really need a case badly.

IF YOU GO TO EBAY AND SEARCH FOR "HEROCLIX STORAGE" YOU CAN USUALLY FIND A FEW THINGS, BUT THE EASIEST AND CHEAPEST WAY TO GO IS TO HEAD TO YOUR LOCAL WALMART AND CHECK OUT THEIR FISHING SECTION. THEY HAVE BAIT BOXES THAT ARE PERFECT AND CHEAP (USUALLY GET ENOUGH TO STORE 100 CLIX FOR UNDER $10) FOR STORING YOUR CLIX.

Do a search in this forum for "Wal-Mart" and you'll find out about the many great case options available there.

Check the toy section at Wal-Mart and go into the Matchbox cars section. Some company puts out nice holder for model cars which holds clix nicely. Also, the hardware section has all kinds of plastic storage.

I use my Warhammer boxes that can hold 96 figures. I have 4 of them so I might as well.
Go to Wal-Mart, in thier toolbox sections they will have some cases there

The Shimano cases often lauded here are very good. You can find that at your local Wal-Mart.
Also, they are good to carry out to your car, because they make you look like you are doing something manly like fishing.

WAL-MART, in the fishing section. but all of the cases become space consuming after a while

I also have a recommendation for Wal Mart products, but I get my storage boxes in the craft section. They're called craft keepers and they have sections for flight and ground based characters. Almost all figures fit extremely well in these. They also come in two sizes, large and small. I keep most of my figures organized by teams. Needless to say, I use a large box for my SHIELD figures since I have so many.
The only drawback with these boxes is that you have to get a big bag or suitcase to put them all in. I've probably got about 8 large cases and 20 small cases. It gets to be a hassle when lugging them over to other people's houses...

Okay, the first part is right. Go to Wal-Mart.
But DO NOT go to the fishing or toolbox sections. It took me a while to learn this. Go to the toy section.
There you will find almost transparent plastic, double sided (store figs on both sides) carrying cases intended for matchbox cars. The spaces are plenty big for two or three normal figs per space. Fliers can only get one or two per space. They even have longer sections in the middle for dice and tokens, etc. They are clear plastic making it easy to look for the fig on both sides before even opening. The best part is, they cost $4.88. I got the entire first three sets into four cases.
IMO, the best cases for clix anywhere. Bar none.

I agree with Jimmy Jazz.....he's referring to the same case I was in an earlier post. You just have to make sure you keep the latch shut since it's double sided. More than a few times I have spilled the entire contents of one side because I forgot to close the latch.

I bought a case today at walmart... a Shimaro fishing/bait bag.
Its a big blue bag with 6 plastic cases inside with adjustable compartments. I was able to separate all my clix into individual compartments by R/E/V... And still have leftover space. It can easily hold 250+ clix, plus maps, rules, dice etc in side zipper compartments.
Very organized and easy to lug around.
I went to Wal-mart and got mine.

HOME DEPOT sells a tool box for 9.99 that has 31 storage spaces plus extra storage, it is double sided with a clear pastic top on both sides. The "tool box" is large enough to hold an infinity challenge set. I will also hold all your play stuff, has a handle that slides in and out of the box for easy storage. It's called the workforce double sided organizer.

The matchbox cases from Wal-Mart have 46 slots that usually hold two to three figures. Two of the slots are oversized as well. They are about 3" thick and clear plastic. And again, they are only $4.88 each. That's 92 storage spaces for under $10 and they are thin and easy to store. Best bet out there.
