I got three full size humpback magnetic sheets. The first one in installed…I wasn’t ready for strong the adhesive would be and ended up tearing a corner off from the main piece and putting it back on. My 40k units will cover it up and since it lays flat and I look at it front facing, it the rip isn’t a deal breaker for me. Just make sure when you are ready to place it, you take it nice and easy. Very carefully remove the covering and have it exactly where you want it.
I was looking for a carrying case as well as a display. Now that I’ve used it as both, what else can I say but amazing. You just have to be careful while assembling as I think I was lucky not to break anything. If you take it easy and take your time, I’m sure you won’t break it. I highly recommend it and will probably be ordering my second one soon.
Nice display case for the minis I have painted. Looking forward to filling it up more as I continue to paint my army.
I was looking for a good storage solution that didn't look terrible, and this absolutely fits the bill. I'm planning on a variety of minis, including Star Wars Legion, BattleTech, D&D, etc. I am interested in all of the "basing" options, but just the ability to display things nicely in a form that I can also quickly access to pull things out to play is really what I was looking for, and this system is really working well so far for that.
My one issue was that I managed to break off a couple of minor tabs while assembling. Assembly isn't really that difficult, but you should be patient with it. One tip is that when you are putting together pieces with the silicon balls, usually it's much easier to insert things depending on which side you are pushing the piece onto. In other words, if it feels like you have to push really hard to get two pieces together, just try flipping the piece around to the other side, instead of doing what I did and pushing so hard you break things :-P
Even with the small tabs I broke off, the pieces fit together well and the overall structure of the nested levels fits great and is very steady, so I don't even feel like I need to return or repair the piece.
More minor things: the packaging was surprisingly "premium". The fanciest box I've ever seen for... another box, haha! I do really appreciate the included microfiber, because fingerprints happen immediately.
My first box was a "test box" to see if it was worth the investment, and I'm quite sure I'll be getting more in the future!
Thanks Scott, and that's exactly the right advice. Taking your time on the first case is the whole trick — once the panels click the rest goes quickly. Glad it's holding your collection the way you hoped.
Ordered a custom layer from Crystal Fortress to house my Baron's War: Conquest Norman army with mounted figures. Working with the team we designed a custom layer for cavalry and infantry figures. I received the Humpback case and custom layer, it went together very quickly. The custom layer works wonderfully for housing the figures.
