Don't have any, only keep a minimal amount of "Spares" and unpainted teams, don't see the need to have un assembled stuff laying around, once it's aquired its built then off for painting.....same with dice, don't keep that many as don't need that many.
If I get free stuff (tournament giveaways ect) I often trade them or give them to others if I don't see an immediate use for them.
How do you store your unpainted/unassembled figures?

respect man. Do you have a job as well?spubbbba wrote:I am a big fan of converting and GW’s plastics open up a lot of possibilities for me. I often buy boxed sets on a whim if I think they have potential so have a lot of them stacked up, some barely even touched. For metal teams of unpainted single figures I have a book shelf I line them up in and boxes for spare or random players.
If the boxes get a bit bashed or I’ve used most of the bits for a team then I will cut everything off and store them in plastic grab bags. I have loads of these from buying models and bits off e-bay. I have a bag for each type of bits so there are dwarf, high elf, chaos bags etc. Where I have a lot of bits then I will break them up futher so there may be separate goblin, orc, black orc and saveage orc bags or even a bag just for one specific unit.
As I mostly focus on Bloodbowl nowadays I always on the look out for suitable bits to use as bloodbowl armour. I have set aside specific bags for loin cloths, gloved or bare empty hands, helmets/heads and miscellaneous parts which often includes bits cut off other bloodbowl models. As shoulder pads are one of the most useful conversion parts I always pick those up when I can so have a bag of small, medium and large pads depending on the size of model they are meant for.

I have boxes and units in my garage with drawers and shelves. Unpainted tend to remain inside the house as a reminder and incentives to paint. Bits and not finished tend to get boxed and stuck in the unit unless I can get my son to have a go at painting

I do make a few extra quid off converting and painting Bloodbowl teams, on average 4 a year since 2007.El Hombre wrote: respect man. Do you have a job as well?

I pile them up, perch a mattress on top and sleep.
