I tried to solve this same problem yesterday. I managed to get it down to two boxes with all heroes and only the single GOO and episode that I was facing.
How did you manage this?
I made some preliminary tests today. I had a 295x295x35mm 54 slot foamtray* and 300x300x50mm pick and pluck trays** waiting for me to get off my ass.
After filling the 54 slot tray with S1 and Unspeakable, there were
21 22 (with Scarlett) normal models left over (all but 1 from S2 + Dagon's and Hastur's monsters). It did fit a Migo, but not anything that was even slightly bigger.
I started guesstimating if the monsters would fit the pick&pluck and gave up halfway on S1, since they seem take so much space!
If you can live with a little lift, you can fit 2 54 slot trays and a pick & pluck in S2 box. I only now realized that the core box is a little deeper, so that would be much better place for the figures. I guess I have to try again...
I'm thinking (if space and time permits) 300x300x60 + 54 slot 35mm tray and something withing the 35mm depth. The core box is around 115mm, so that would lift the box ~1,5cm.
-edit- I think they did a pretty good job with the inserts. I'm not fan of how much stuff you have to move to get other stuff and how many boxes within boxes there are, but the original inserts provide a nice combination of protection and order.
