  1. Hi Derek, yes these are indeed on the way. Normal postage to US can be a bit slow but normally takes about 3 weeks. Hopefully you'll be sneaking up on your enemy in perfect order pretty soon.
  2. Some models have an incredibly slender attachment to the base so correct magnets are advisable. I use N52 neodymium magnets 4x2. I find they are pretty good. mid you’d like to try before you buy I offer a free sample which includes a tray and 3 magnets. (postage cost only)
  3. Thanks guys, Our community is special. So many cool guys. It's my pleasure to carry on supporting the TGA even through the current times. Yes we all have our priorities changed at the moment but we'll be here and ready for everyone when we can get back to our cool little game. Cheers for looking, new stock and new designs coming soon. www.minimagtray.co.uk
  4. Yes it is very much dependant on what you would like to achieve with your units. If they are small 10 man speed bumps then I would look at 3 and 4 man open. This allows quick and accurate spacing taking up the most space. They can easily collapse into tighter formations. For bigger units its either the staright or cloud. Both do the same thing really. For smaller high quality combat units I would go 3 man close. These are ace where exact positioning is useful. Especially good with 2" reach models. Why? Well if one model is touching all models must be in combat. I hope this helps.
  5. Yes with metal models you may need an extra magnet to increase the hold they have to tray. If enough weight is added the can become a little trickier to use. it’s a balance between getting the right hold and being able to remove them. This is key to getting all the advantages from MiniMagTRAYs.
  6. Well if you want to you can always try the free tray and magnets on my site or just go for what you need. Getting some great feedback from customers so far so I'm fairly confident there should be useful for you. AND, you get a free sticker! 😁
  7. Yeah just me in the mail office I'm afraid so can't fire myself 🤣 All I can do is apologise 🙂 Glad you enjoy them. I've had a lot of great feedback about the trays from those that have tried them. It's why I offer free trays and magnets for anyone that would like to have a go.
  8. Yes I do. I ship worldwide for a flat fee of £6. This is an added bonus for those that order large. Much cheaper than most worldwide shipping I've seen Currently I do these bad boys. https://www.minimagtray.co.uk/?product=5-combat-cloud-40mm The thinking is this. If models are killed it doesn't matter where you remove them from, they always stay in 1" coherency. Very practical on the table. I would advise that more than one magnet is placed under the model due to extra weight of tray and models.
  9. How did you get on with them? Always like feedback to keep improving the product.
  10. Yes having options for what and how you deploy your troops. It’s worth noting that these trays are much less restrictive than normal trays so you have a fair bit of flexibility.
  11. I’m happy to wax lyrical about the advantages of my trays but it may be better to point you here. https://plasticcraic.blog/2019/09/23/product-review-mini-mag-trays/ it’s an independent review by one of my customers. Shipping expensive? I do my very best to keep costs low. £6 worldwide isn’t too bad. On any orders over about £40 I actually loose money. Mom happy to remove branding if you really want too. Just let me know.
  12. Well I’m a movement tray supplier and I’m happy to respond. Come over to www.minimagtray.co.uk and have a look. We have a good email section so if you’d like to ask direct questions or feedback you can. You can can also get a free tray. Yes really. Pop in over and get your free stuff.
  13. So Minimagtray have had an independent review from the Plastic Craic Blog website. Totally independent from Minimagtray just a review on the products they bought. Really great (and funny) review. If your even thinking about movement tray (and with Cities of Sigmar round the corner its a great time) head over and have a read for yourself. https://plasticcraic.blog/2019/09/23/product-review-mini-mag-trays/
  14. Yes here in the UK the design industry are vastly more likely to use the metric measurements than the imperial system. I work in design for oil industry mainly. I have to do drawings in both imperial and metric. Imperial is a pain to tolerance with bit fractional and decimal options.
  15. So my trays are done with a metric 25mm between models. This prevents models moving between them (1”=25.4mm) also as they allow flexible placement of models (no rim to stop you) you can place them where you want on the tray. Simples. Also do these trays allow models to be in base to base. This IS important in AoS any way you look at it. Most trays prevent this
  16. Always nice to hear that people are happy with the product. I've worked hard to design what I feel is the best design on the marketplace. The product range will only expand into the future as more people see the advatages of magnetised models on metalic trays. The flexibilty and usability into late game is second to none. Always happy to look at what people want for future dsegns od answers on a postcard people. @minimagTRAY
  17. I’ll sorry but no. These trays require a magnet underneath the models. You could remove the washers but that’s a lot of work. These are definitely NOT magnetic.
  18. It is and it isn’t. Your models aren’t constrained enough to prevent some piling in. The more models in a tray the more likely they’ll have to move off the tray. Again hard to imagine but it just works.
  19. So the loss of the rim is key. Without this hinderance your able to slide your models around a bit to fit. They’re not rigidly locked in position. With a magnet in middle of base, models can almost hang off edges of tray and still work There is only so much you can achieve with a tray. An individual model is almost always easier to position (unless he falls off terrain then a tray is better) but for bulk movement I love them. The 3 model is a half way house. Flexibility and speed. It also ensure formations touch. Eg. 3 x 25mm men in tray. 2” reach. First model touches enemy. Every model in unit has to be in combat. The 5 man Cloud I prefer for archers and units that don’t see too much combat but then most people prefer them 🤷‍♂️ As I say. I designed what worked for me. I would say that all other trays are bad, these just have some unique features that people seam to like 👍
  20. Sorry but not yet. They are being planned. Not 100% sure which shapes I will go for yet so feedback is always helpful. This is the idea. The models stay on the tray throughout the combat. I personally use the 25mm 3xClose for my plague monks. They work well having that flexibility. The low profile of them allows them to slide over the top of each other. This is Mubarak thoughts as well I was fed up with trays that only worked T1 and some of T2. I want something that I use all game.
  21. So MinimagTRAY, thats me. I've approched this as a 'What do I really want to use' kind of project. The issues I see with current designs are this: Rims, lack of flexibility, cost, not ready to use, usable for the entire game not just T1 So from my site... www.minimagTRAY.co.uk Fully magnetic trays: Made of high grade, precision cut steel the trays are fully magnetic to allow your magnetised troops a surface to really stick too. No RIM! Finally, no rim around your troops. This allows your troops to get into base to base contact with the enemy. No more ‘counts as contact’ but correct placement of your troops in the combat phase without the need to remove your tray to do it. Low profile. Steel means thin and strong. Profile less than 1mm means that they can easily stack on top of each if the situation calls for it. Practically invisible when in use. We don’t really want to see the movement tray, it’s the models we want to see. Low profile, no rim and practically invisible when in use. This delivers this like no other design. Ready to use. MiniMagTRAY are ready to use. No building, gluing or painting required to use. Just magnetised models and your ready to go. Don’t worry if you’ve never magnetised an army. Magnetising models is sooooo easy. I've always done it for transport so it makes sense to use it on the table. I did a skaven army in one night. The whole lot. I am going to expand the range to include some of the larger sizes but alos ways to really get the best use out these trays. Designed for fighting with rather than just deployment.
  22. Yeah I'm up for a bit of this action Paul. Bring in the fun and games.
