Cool idea.
My ideal solution just got broken by the twelfth color, though I'm glad to see it come!
I used a Dexas Case Binder:
...with the binder clip bar removed. It is EXACTLY long enough for eleven tubes side by side; thick enough for 6 Eeyore wedges, 2 chessboard bandannas, 2 Martian Coasters sets, Playing with Pyramids, Cosmic Coasters, and a Volcano board; and wide enough to include a Tarot deck, a bag of poker chips, pens, Volcano caps, and a smattering of dice. it fits in a book bag easily (obviously) and I can use the clipboard top to hold down sign-up sheets, rule printouts, or whatever (Looney Labs cards, sometimes).
But now I reckon I'll be looking for a new solution. Which is fine--I have to be able to fit in two Treehouse sets anyway; and it's easier to prep for single-set and 2HOUSE games with them rather than breaking into four or five monochrome tubes.
Which reminds me... I have to order Pink from Sci Fi Genre and get an empty tube from LL (wish the Carrots were still working--perfect way to use up a spare Carrot or two)....
