Hello, all.
One of my favorite board games of all time is Talisman. For those who aren't familiar with it, the game contains hundreds of cards, plastic pieces, miniatures, different sized boards, you name it. The company currently releasing it, Fantasy Flight Games, offers up expansions for the game as well, every few months, so the amount of pieces contained within the game increase.

My problem comes in that the company selling those boxes is European based, so the cost of that exact setup is about 80 bucks USD. Not a ton, but certainly not "inexpensive," either. Also, in a few expansions, that solution is going to need to be revised.
I can't help but to think that someone out there has run into this same problem, and I'm actually a little surprised that gaming companies that release this stuff don't open separate markets for storage solutions designed specifically for their product.
So, who better to ask than a bunch of gamers and collectors?
What do YOU guys do? I really don't want to go the route of having multiple "Plano-type" bins, but I do want something durable, and portable.
So, how do you guys handle this type of problem? Any specific companies you would reccomend?
Thanks in advance, and Cheers!
