Show me your bag/case!

I'm still an unlucky person waiting for the Mavic to be delivered, but I pre-ordered this backpack from GPC cases:
I think drone crates makes a better backpack. It holds 5 batteries plus one in mavic so six.

Just got this in. I will be using this for my everyday bag over the pelican. Easily holds Mavic, 4 batteries, controller, iPad mini, chargers, spare props, hub and still have two empty side pockets.

From my Leica photography days I had this Domke F-803 satchel lying around. Perfect for the Mavic - a very compact, lightweight package!
Extra Mavic battery in one of the front pockets. A few spare blades in the other one. Spare SD card, FAA registration, checklist and misc. small stuff in the top-front zip-pockets.
When I bring it (not sure yet if I want to fly with it that often), I have my iPad mini in the back pocket.
I have gone on long walks with it slung over my shoulder and I hardly notice it is even there at all. Love it!

I have the controller in the bag, but in a protective pouch (not pictured) for now as I want to keep the knobs straight. I have ordered a thingie for the controller that will protect and park them straight and don't think I will need the pouch after that.

What is the weight? On Amazon's page, the shipping weight is 6.2 lbs and item weight is 2 lbs which doesn't make sense.

The GCS website has the item listed at 5 lbs. it's only on pre-order for now - set to be released in January.

Since it's not on here yet, here's mine. It's Polar Pro's case specifically designed for the Mavic. It's extremely durable and all the cutouts fit perfectly. It's also fairly heavy coming in at just over 4lbs. The only thing I would've liked to see is a spot for their filters, but that's minor. I'm going to use this case to store it safely at home or take the Mavic on short trips (as in short distances from my truck). For hiking and longer trips, I have a Lowepro backpack I use for my DSLR gear and the Mavic fits perfectly in one of the lens compartments.

Was thinking about the polar pro, but would like space for 3 extra batteries. Might just go with that pelican 1400 posted earlier.

Also, where are you guys getting the lipo safe bags?
 
Here's mine in the bag, no room for the charger but it'll fit an extra battery or two. Have a chunk of soft foam on the interior bottom. Bonus pic included for your viewing pleasure.

The Fly Morei DJI supplied case is nice and small looking but way too tight. I feel I might damage the props trying to cram the Mavic in or out. Just another inch in each dimension would help tremendously. A waste of money in my opinion.
