Packing and Moving Minis

[jagpop]

I'm about to move to a new place at the end of January. What is the best way to pack the loose Minis to avoid them bumping into each other and getting scuffed? I was thinking of bubble wrapping each one individually. Figured that was the best way. If anyone else has tried something else that is more efficient, please share. Thanks.

Cheap sammich bags. You can get a box of 100 from the $ store

I'm kind of in the same boat and have been saving some of the MM boxes. Most of my minis are now stored away in those. Got each mini wrapped in a layer of tissue paper and can anywhere from two to five minis in each little box (aside from the big fellas like Godzilla and Jaws) so they're snug and won't shift around in transit. Then the mini boxes go in a bigger box. Seems to be working well. Got almost my whole collection nicely packed in one medium sized box.

I've also used sandwich bags or just the wrap they came in. Both worked out fine. I was more worried about parts being bent, so I packed them kind of loose in bags in a shoe box. They have survived a couple moves without issue.

Thanks. I've had minis shipped to me in only a sandwich bag and it tends to rub off on the black paint. Good ideas everyone. I hope my minis survive....

Glad or generic zip lock sandwich bags.

When I had to move and I had a lot of vinylmation figures I put them in little baggies I got at Michael's. It's like 3 inches wide and four inches long. Super cheap too. Or just get some sandwich bags.

One thing that hasn't been mentioned is the bobble head ones. If you have any Marvel minis that are bobble heads I try to wrap some tissue paper around their neck before I put them in a bad so that their head doesn't get bent and their neck spring won't go wonky.

This was my strategy. I always save the boxes and black overwrap as moving some 300+ minis is going to suck but i am planning on it in the next 6 months. I need to see if i saved enough boxes i just throw them in giant shopping bags and then in a closet, but they do take up quite a bit of space
