Miniature Base Sizes

Looking for 28mm Bases?

"28mm" usually refers to the miniature scale (the figure's height), not the base diameter — though Games Workshop does also use 28mm as a base size for some current units like Necron Warriors, Eldar Guardians, and Termagants. We make 28mm round bases as a Specialty Base Set for those exact units.

For most other 28mm-scale miniatures, the right base depends on the unit: Warhammer 40K Space Marines and AoS elite infantry use 32mm round; 40K light infantry and AoS battleline use 25mm round; Frostgrave and many skirmish games use 30mm round. If you need a specific diameter we don't list, LITKO BaseMaker cuts custom sizes to the millimeter.

Looking for Notched Bases or an Oddball Size?

Our Specialty Base Sets collection covers everything that falls outside our standard GMB line — notched rounds and pills for Star Wars: Legion, consolidated multi-material pages for popular sizes like 27mm, 28mm, 100mm, 130mm, and 160mm round, plus uncommon sizes and shapes you won't find anywhere else.

Looking for Inch-Sized Bases?

LITKO stocks inch sizes from 0.5in to 4in in every shape — jump to Round, Square, Rectangular, or Hex / Octagon / Double Hex. Inch bases are common for Warmachine / Hordes, D&D and fantasy skirmish, historical wargaming rule sets written in inches (Black Powder, Blücher, To The Strongest), and terrain / objective markers. Use the shape and size chip filter above to narrow.
