All bots in Alt mode. Accessories in smaller box. Tightly packed in stackable plastic bins.

All depends on ones level of anal retentiveness?
On a scale of 1 to 10 mine is about a 25.
So just in a bin with plastic on plastic and paint on paint? Madness
So....you are saying you don't have any bins like this?

No. Just the thought of doing that makes me anxious.
Personally I think it was fine, but if more were added and the top FORCED on (thus pushing them down) then there'd be an issue.
I have a couple of bins that look exactly like this: Beast Wars, Animated, Unicron Trilogy, Movie.
I used small ziplock bags and packed most of my bots in robot mode. I tried to leave a bit of air in the bags to keep the bots from colliding with one another. Then, I put them in giant bubble wrapped bins. (I knew there was a reason to save all that bubble wrap from my BBTS purchases.) ALl my figures made it out fine. But like cary said, unpacking has been the worst. I am more than 18 months in my new home and only have about 40% unpacked. (Plus, I added PotPie...)
And, indeed, I will add my congrats, Burn. I hope everything goes smoothly from here on out.
