I've tried uploading some pictures of this, without any success so you'll just have to visit their website here to see what I'm on about. www.KRmulticase.co.uk
This Uk based firm produces a range of cases for storing miniatures in. They range from just the foam trays, to trays in a cardboard case, to trays in metal cases.
I've bought both GW cases with their trays, and a KR cardboard case and their trays.
The KR trays are made from a softer foam than the GW ones. Compartment sizes vary with the KR depending on what you buy, but they've clearly been thought out and are quite generous. Some stray glue is apparent in a few of the compartments and around the edges but on the whole the trays are clean and crisp.
The first ones I bought came with their cardboard case for £ 23.07 which included P&P in the UK. Knowing what a GW one costs, even with full discount on it, this is still good value. I was a bit worried about the cardboard case, but its actually rather good. The cardboard is thick, precisely folded and cut and well finished. I would imagine it would last quite a while, and if you're just storing at home on a shelf they do stack up nicely.
Can't comment on the other cases as I didn't buy any, but dispatch of my order was prompt. It was well packed and I would buy from them again.
I bought some a couple of these carboard cases a whole ago, and whislt they've not seem much use, except for storage I find them quite well built.
I probably should move my WWII crossfire figures into them as well, but they're OK in my gaming case for a little while, still! :)
Might be interested, I actually thinking of keeping hold of some of my minis...thanks for the link!
Who else does these?
Bossco101 do will you be selling them? I've always liked the metal ones they have.
I have considered it but haven't approached them yet. As far as I know they don't have any retailers as yet, which is a bit of a shame considering the wide range of products they make.
If your interested I can have a word?
The other cases I might consider are figures in comfort (http://www.figuresincomfort.co.uk/) and actually GW do make very good cases. I've heard the Feldherr (http://www.figurecase.com/) ones are nice, but I've never actually seen one.
That's it. I've run out of info on figure cases, now :)

I might be interested down the line (much further). If you do get in touch with them and start selling their products let me know
Will do CH
