50mm square bases: common questions

Where can I check base sizes unit by unit?

Our Warhammer base size guide and Kings of War base size guide list recommended base sizes by unit or creature type.

Should I choose bases or base bottoms?

Plywood and acrylic are the bases your miniature stands on. Magnet and flexible steel are base bottoms: thin, peel-and-stick layers that go under a base so it holds to steel- or magnet-lined storage and trays. Many players order both in 50mm.

Do you make other sizes?

Yes. See the related sizes below, or our miniature base sizes reference. For a size we don't stock, BaseMaker cuts any dimension you need.

Store them magnetized

Painted miniatures on magnet base bottoms held on a flexible steel liner inside a clear storage case The same storage case held upside down, the miniatures still stuck to the steel liner

Add a magnet base bottom and line any case with LITKO flexible steel sheet. Your minis stay put, even upside down.

Already storing on magnet sheet? Use flexible steel base bottoms instead: steel sticks to magnet with no polarity to match.

Great quality bases as always. Litko's quality has never let me down - very consistent!

Used the Litko magnets on metal Perry Austrian Uhlan cavalry (2 to a base). Worked terrifically in anchoring these relatively heavy models in their carrying case. Very pleased with product!

Repeat customer. Products are always well made to the highest standards.

Items were delivered on schedule and bases are perfect in dimensions and fit. I also got the roomy trays, which allow for more leeway when painting your bases so that the minis still rank up as needed. If I ever need more, I'll be ordering here instead of Green Stuff World.

Very fast service. High quality bases. Great company with which to work. Will be telling my store front dealer about them and hope he will bring their product into his store. Like to support my local game store if possible.

Very fast shipping, the quality of the product is as expected. Prices are good. Not cheap, but neither is the quality of the product, and it saves so many hours of sawing without reaching absolute uniformity. The main issue that stopped me from finishing my miniatures is now gone.

I ordered on April 21. The bases were delivered on May 7 . In these difficult times of Covid19, I was impressed by how quickly the order arrived. Flawless quality as usual. Well packaged for shipment. Also there were several status emails during the period that kept me adequately informed. I will continue to use your products in the future. Thank you.
