boring Rubbermaid bins (and equivalent generic brands)
Add foam/bubble wrap as necessary. Not sexy AT ALL, but gets the job done.

Just working on a full set of colonial marine armour, which is nearly finished. However, I realise I'm going to need something to lug this stuff round in when I go to conventions. So, what does anyone here use for transporting their armour round in? |

Mine screws together and I disassemble for transport. |

i made mine so the chest armor comes apart easily and just use a suit case. a lot of 501st and UK judges use the wheeled boxes the b&q sell for about 30 quid |

Yeah, for my TK armor I use one of these: https://www.homedepot.com/p/Husky-35-in ... /205053257 Most of the guys use the taller one, but my armor is small enough, and I don't put my helmet in there. It's pretty indispensable, especially backstage, on upper floors, or when you're rolling around location cause you don't know where your changing area is yet. Technically, i could use a soft large duffle, and sling it over my shoulder, but the added protection, and being able to toss it in the boot is another bonus. |

Thanks for the link, Red_2 - I'm a 501st TD and have been looking for something like that. That'll be great for the USCM armor (when I can afford it) and my TD armor (when I can once again fit into it...)

Always glad to help out a fellow trooper/soldier/human/etc. I hope I can make some marine armor one day. |
