Re-Ment's miniatures are genuinely tiny, which makes them look like an obvious match for pre-cut foam storage built for tabletop miniatures. That assumption holds up better for Re-Ment than it did for the last collectible we ran this comparison against, Tomica die-cast cars, but it still isn't a perfect, unqualified fit.
Individual Re-Ment pieces typically run in the 2 to 4cm range, well within tabletop-miniature territory, and noticeably smaller than the roughly 6-7cm Tomica castings that didn't fit the same foam slots at all. That's the genuinely good news here.
The complication is that Re-Ment is frequently sold and described as multi-piece dioramas rather than single figures, and online size listings sometimes blur the line between a box's outer dimensions and an individual piece's actual size.
Here's an honest breakdown of what actually fits, where the size confusion comes from, and why a full scene can still be trickier than a single component suggests.
The 80-Slot EVORETRO Miniature Storage Case with Customizable Foam runs 99.99 CAD, with two of its three foam layers pre-cut into 40 slots each, sized at 2 x 1 x 1 inches, about 5.08 x 2.54 x 2.54cm. Those slots were built for 25-28mm tabletop gaming miniatures, the same market this case targets generally.
At roughly 5cm long and 2.5cm wide and deep, that slot size is a much closer match to Re-Ment's individual piece range than it was for Tomica's longer die-cast cars, which routinely exceeded the slot on length alone.
Several Re-Ment product listings state box dimensions like 115 x 70 x 50mm or 115 x 70 x 80mm, numbers that describe the outer packaging, not the figure inside it. A shopper skimming that spec and assuming it's the piece size will badly overestimate how much room a Re-Ment miniature actually needs.
This conflation shows up often enough in online Re-Ment listings that it's worth flagging directly rather than assuming every size claim you find is describing the actual miniature. When in doubt, look for a stated figure height specifically, not just a box dimension.
A lot of Re-Ment sets aren't single figures at all, they're small scenes: a teapot, a cup, and a saucer sold together as one box, or a windowsill scene with both a Pokemon figure and a separate scenery backdrop piece. Even if each individual component clears an 80-slot case's foam cutout on its own, the assembled scene as a whole might not fit as one unit.
That's a meaningfully different storage problem than a single collectible figure. You're not deciding whether one object fits a slot, you're deciding whether to store a scene's pieces together in adjacent slots or split them apart and risk losing track of which pieces belong together.
For single-component Re-Ment pieces, a standalone figure with no separate scenery or companion piece, the 80-slot case's pre-cut 5.08 x 2.54 x 2.54cm slots are a reasonable, close fit given Re-Ment's typical 2 to 4cm piece size. This is a meaningfully better match than it was for Tomica, where the same slots were too short for most castings out of the box.
For multi-piece dioramas, plan on using adjacent slots for pieces that belong to the same scene, and consider labeling or grouping them so a set doesn't get scattered across the case during a big collection reorganization.
EVORETRO's 5-tray aluminum miniatures display case, at 179.95 CAD with open stainless steel trays instead of foam cutouts, sidesteps the whole slot-sizing question entirely. Its open layout works for single pieces, full multi-piece scenes kept together, or a mixed Re-Ment collection with pieces of varying individual size.
The tradeoff is the same one we've flagged for other collectibles: open trays don't individually cradle each piece the way a snug foam cutout does, so a multi-piece scene can shift during transport more than it would in a dedicated foam slot.
Generally yes for single-component pieces, since Re-Ment's 2-4cm range fits the case's roughly 5cm slots reasonably well.
Many listings state box dimensions, not the individual figure's actual size.
Not necessarily; an assembled scene with multiple components can be harder to fit as one unit than any single piece.
Often yes, since it doesn't require matching a scene's components to a fixed slot shape.
No, Tomica's longer castings generally exceeded the case's pre-cut slot size.
Re-Ment's small scale is an advantage for storage, but only once you've confirmed you're measuring the actual piece and not just its box. EVORETRO's 80-slot miniature storage case is a genuinely solid starting point for single-component Re-Ment pieces.
