I am seriously debating entering one of my more recent mecha MOCs (pics soon,

wondering what methods I could use to reinforce the Joints for shipment.  It's a
real challenge since I rely almost exclusively on single system stud connections
fairly often.  Any ideas are welcome, this is really a stick given the nature of
bipedal mecha...

Fat Bubble Wrap. Place arms and legs in seperate baggies. Keep all details and
parts you expect to fall off in baggies too. Bunch up plastic bags as an
additional inpact dampener around the MOC.

Include print outs of the completed Model for repair referral.
Pack Pack Pack in sections! Speare no expense. Your time is the most important
factor. The more time you take to pack right. The less time you or anyone esle
will spend having to repair the model.

Again, pack in sections. Bag seperate sections in their own baggies. If parts
fall off, you know what section they came from.

Good Luck, let us know what happens.
