What counts as a "letterbox-friendly" Custom D&D Miniature Boxes in the UK?

It's a box built within Royal Mail's large letter size band, typically under 2.5cm deep, so a single figure or a small set can post through a standard letterbox rather than needing a parcel service.

Do painted and unpainted miniatures need different packaging?

Painted figures need a cavity that holds the model without any contact point on the painted surface, usually a raised support rather than a flat bed. Unpainted or unassembled minis can sit in a simpler flat tray since there's no finish to protect yet.

Is a foam insert or a shaped card tray better for a flat-packed mini?

Foam suits bulkier metal or resin sets where depth isn't constrained. A die-cut card tray works better for a single letterbox-rate figure, since it holds shape at a shallower depth than foam typically allows.

Should multi-part Custom D&D Miniature Boxes separate bases, weapons ship assembled or in pieces?

Pre-assembled ships are better when the cavity's shaped to the finished silhouette. Loose parts do better in a divided tray with a separate pocket per piece, so nothing shifts against a painted surface in transit.

What's the minimum order for custom D&D miniature boxes?

Orders start from 40 units. Smaller one-off or con-exclusive runs are possible, though unit cost rises below that threshold.

Can the box double as a display case once the mini's out?

Yes. A recessed base and a clear or windowed lid let the same box work as a shelf stand once the figure's unpacked, so it stays useful long after the first opening.

What are the Royal Mail size limits for a letterbox-rate miniature box?

Large letter rate currently allows up to 35.3cm x 25cm x 2.5cm. Anything deeper than that, which most multi-figure sets are, moves into a parcel rate instead.

Is the foam insert recyclable, or is there a card alternative?

Standard foam inserts aren't kerbside recyclable. A die-cut card tray is available as a lower-impact alternative, and it's also the better fit for letterbox-depth orders regardless of recyclability.
