Terrain Specialties Figure Case


I'm huge! sticker is not included with case!Over many years I have seen people transporting their armies around in everything imaginable. Several figure cases, cardboard boxes, bags, baskets, luggage, metal toolboxes, and milk carton crates. I've been asked numerous times by these people to recommend a better figure case. I have one word for you guys: Doskocil! Doskocil cases are sold as gun or accessory cases, but have found a niche with miniature painters and gamers. Their solid two piece construction with metal reinforced hinges, sliding latches with optional key locks, and reversible flat or egg crate foam inserts, make them last for a lifetime of gaming. They are a definite bargain for under twenty dollars. The only problem with them is that until now people who prefer slotted foam were stuck using cheaply constructed and hard to find Chessex cases, or the more expensive Games Workshop figures cases. Terrain Specialties has solved this dilemma by making custom slotted foam inserts designed specifically for Doskocil cases.

Slotted foam is a better option for transporting delicate figures that may be damage by being squished between standard solid foam layers. These Foundry Vikings with attached metal spears need the extra protection of a slotted case.

Terrain Specialties cases are the exact same Doskocil cases that I live by and recommend, but with three layers of slotted foam with 40 slots each, enough space for 120 figures! That's 10 more than the similar Games Workshop figure cases, yet at a cheaper price. For those that prefer the option of using flat or slotted foam, the cases come with the cut foam blocks still inserted, so you can remove to use the slots, or replace them if you wanted to use the case as a standard flat foam Doskocil case. The foam can also be cut to make larger slots for larger figures.

Now there is no reason not to use Doskocil cases. Whatever your preference, be it solid foam or slotted, the durable construction and affordable price makes Doskocil case a must for any weekend warrior.

Doskocil cases are available at sporting goods stores, some Wal-Mart or Kmart stores, or on the web at Brookhurst Hobbies.
