Thick padding is normally a characteristic of open-cell foam, which is not good for the long term health of your weapon.
Durability may not be an issue now, but I am not sure how long they will hold up. With an Eagle case, the materials alone cost more than Condor is charging for the finished bag. I have Eagle cases that are over 20 years old and are still working well. A warranty will not be much good to you if you are in a bad place when something fails though. On the few occasions I have had something break, like when the baggage handlers let a duffel bag drag on the tarmac as they hauled it around the airport, Eagle has been very quick to repair and return the items.
I would also ask where these cases are being made. Most of the Condor products on the web site look like knock-offs of other people's designs.
Not necessarily a knock, I just am naturally suspicious till a product (and a manufacturer) prove themselves over a period of time. I would let the Airsoft customers sort that out for them in the interim.
Just my .02, YMMV.
