Yes, what Frank describes is perfectly fine.  Team members may store their equipment by holding it while waiting to tag in.

They generally should not hold any mission models while waiting, as that's not typically in view of the referee.

Hi,
  We have 5 team members and 5 'missions' from base, so the kids each want to run one of the missions.  My question is, can each of the kids be holding their specific attachment or jig that they will need for their mission, or does everything need to be in the box?  Rule 35.6 says "Team-supplied objects held by members away from the table must be inspected before the match starts" - I assume that applies here?

Thanks,
Frank
