Battle Foam Infinity Alpha & Beta Bags Review
August 10, 2012 by darrell
As it's Infinity Week 2012 we thought it would be good to take a look at some bags you can carry all your precious minis in.
So the guys in the studio grabbed the Infinity Alpha and Beta bags from Battle Foam to check out what you get.
I love my beta bag. The thing hides nicely in my car’s trunk when I’ve got other stuff to pack in there. Might have to upgrade to the Alpha now that my collection is growing.
Thats not my bag…
and it comes in black 🙂
Worth noting that the Beta bag takes PACK Mini trays and the Alpha bag takes PACK C4 / Malifaux trays if they are inserted vertically (as seen in the video). There is also a “Horizontal” version of the Alpha that as slightly smaller trays but they are stacked vertically so you don’t have to tip the bag on it’s back before opening it.
I have a Warmachine bag. Battlefoam makes the best bags on the market, but I prefer other foams that are out. Still, a great product.
I love the size of the beta…perfect for my new merovigian sectorial!
The larger bag is the perfect accessory for any Shasvastii asswang.
All jokes asside, Love battlefoam and will be looking into Beta bag.
Not totally convinced by the Beta bag. Alpha bag seems great but I would like to see them in person. At the moment I think I’ll stick with other (german) companies
garwjenk totaly with you on that one there bagsare well made and if they didnt cost me the price of an army to buy i would own a few. but i do prefer a softer foam
Look nice, but I’m not sure that they are worth the price tag. Might try a KR Multicase instead..
I love my Battlefoam bags and my custom foam! I’ve shipped/carried them across the USA multiple times with minimal breakage, usually just antenna and stuff. Personally I’d look into one of the Malifaux bags as I like the design better.
I’d love to get the limited mini but it’s not worth the price. I believe magnetic is the better way to go.
I have 2 Alpha and 1 Beta Bag.
I agree with the Beta summary it is great but a bit fiddly especially with Aleph and Combined figs.
The Alpha bag is great but if you are getting heavily into the game you are really looking at 1 Bag per faction (in the case of my combined), perhaps as an update to the bag they could release a drone tray as the current layout doesn’t really let you optimise tray usage if you are packing lots of drone such as Nomads or Pan Oceana. Besides this it is a fantastic bag.
I have never actually seen many battlefoam bags anywhere but the internet, everyone loves them, but I personally never seen one. Everyone uses GW cases for ease to get.
I have the beta bag but its not used for infinity because i find the foam to be to course and hard and the minies wasnt secure enough for my metal minis, if they were plastic or resin it would be fine. I spend a lot of time painting them and dont want the paint to chip of and i didnt want to go out and by some very soft cloth/silc to put in the bag. So i built my own transportation system out of the foam that are in the infinity boxes, it is less course and allot softer.… Read more »
This is how my stuff travels.

Its secure with velcro on the lid so it stays shut. Models stay secure in the box with some soft cloth in the bottom and its free.
Damn, cant insert img code here 🙁
The perfect gaming bag is a Zuca Sport, seek and you will find. You do need to add your own inserts but it takes some beating, as it has wheels, can be sat on, stood on and has pockets too
I have them both and are solid good products, although I believe that they shine when custom foam is inserted.
This boxes can fit enything unles it is dragao … unconverted Dragao 😀
I still use my CrystalCaste Battle Hive since the ages of confrontation back in 2003, anyway if I ever go for something littler I would go for Feldherr, many lads at my club got’em and these are wonderful. Battle foam doesn’t look way better if not for the branding … just saying.
I just bought my Alpha bag! Thanks for the video!
the Battle Foam bags are always beatifull 😉
I want that Yaun Yaun model so bad 🙁
Stupid PanOceania antenna, you are my bain!
I have a beta bag on order from Wayland, I don’t really need anything the size of the alpha yet but I supect I’m going to miss all those pockets…
Beta is a little too little for horde armies like Ariadna and Haqqislam, you’ll need to put them into the tag-part, not a very good idea when you need it upside down:/ Big bag is nice thou,
