For some, finding a suitable storage for the X-Wing sets can be a challenge (especially with the purchase of multiple expansions and more in Wave 2 on the way). I'm not in the habit of creating posts like this, but wanted to share my solution in case it helps others as it is low cost and reasonably accessible.After a little digging and thought, I took a shot with a trading card storage box. The one I'm using is the Full Lid Monster Storage Box - 3200 Ct. http://www.bcwsupplies.com/products/trading-card-boxes/full-... . There are other sizes so solutions for those with smaller/bigger collections can easily be found.
IMO it works like a charm with my two cores (stacked on top of each other) and 5 expansion packs (on end). Plus, there is plenty of room (entire row) for the Wave 2 expansions. I even expect the behemoth MF and Slave I to fit - either in the full row, or after removing one of the dividers to make it double width.
(The white box shown in the pic contains the asteroids and scenario tokens).
The Really Useful Boxes shown are just big enough to store the counters and dice for each faction. They don't latch very well, though.
Next step, I plan to put some art work on the lid and a laminated pouch on the inside of the lid for the manual and quick start guide (these will fit across two rows under the dividers or just floating on top, as well).
