Which is best?

Question: I've heard different things from different people on the blogs and message boards I read.  What is the proper way to keep the figure in the case..with the face up, or down?  Andy

From Mr. D:  It's a purely personal choice.  There is no right or wrong way, nor is one way any more safe than the other. There's advantages to both.  Just experiment and see which you prefer. I nearly always packed face up, but sometimes it varied depending upon the layout of the venue, etc.   This is one of those situations where "if it works for you - it's right!"
