avoid newspapers as the ink will transfer to your models (ick)

peanuts are the best

Styrofoam peanuts are by far the best method. making sure the models are encased completely.

you can buy the styrofoam peanuts online at a company called uline, or go to office max or office depot, but it will cost a little more if you are going to buy alot of them.

No matter what packing you use:

Slip plastic newspaper bags over the models first. Newspaper leaves ink stains and peanuts shed static-sticky shreds.

Or put em in custom fitted foamcore boxes then pack in peanuts.
