TorvaldTheMild Posted October 12, 2019 Share Posted October 12, 2019 Does anyone know the size of the new Banshee bases, they looked to me to be 32''? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/359160-size-of-base-for-banshees/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gederas Posted October 13, 2019 Share Posted October 13, 2019 Very clearly 32s, unless they're using the new 28mm bases from Warcry. Compare Jain Zar, Drazhar and the little shrines to the Banshees and Incubi: Jain Zar and Drazhar are pretty clearly on 40mm bases, and the shrines are on 25s. So them being on 32s seems likely.

TorvaldTheMild Posted October 13, 2019 Author Share Posted October 13, 2019 Yeah looks 32 to me as well. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/359160-size-of-base-for-banshees/#findComment-5406544 Share on other sites More sharing options...
m_r_parker Posted October 21, 2019 Share Posted October 21, 2019 They're 28mm apparently, according to the instructions that I have. Note that they're 28mm and not 25mm - so if you have Sector Imperialis 25mm bases, they're actually too small. Nice of GW to throw in a new base size into the mix... EDIT - The same is also true for the new Incubi models, 28mm...

Dread Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 So, the question is, why? There's nothing wrong with 25. Thought it was weird when 32 were introduced so...

m_r_parker Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 Honestly, I think that they're planning to get rid of the 25mm base - that's my own opinion based off of no-one and nothing, just pure speculation. I was actually building some of the Incubi and Banshees yesterday, and the incubi fit a lot better on 32mm's than they do on the supplied 28mm's. On their supplied bases the feet are right on the edge, with 32mm's they look better. Banshees, where they're jumping and less legs-akimbo, can fit on ether.

Slasher956 Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 the thing about 28mm bases that bugs me...is fitting them in to my cases' :( I've a number of old GW cases with the red foam inside which where made for 27 models on 25mm bases and now so many of the models dont fit in my case :( Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/359160-size-of-base-for-banshees/#findComment-5412873 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ekfud Posted October 24, 2019 Share Posted October 24, 2019 Similar... in the process of restarting a new craftworld army and had some Dragonforge bases on order. 25mm for most... 40mm for wraiths and a couple of 32mm for jetbikes. 28mm is not a common size from most of the resin folks. Having had a bunch of mismatched marines ranging from ~1994 to now (eg, Terminators across 25-40mm), I was looking forward to getting a consistent theme down. :-( Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/359160-size-of-base-for-banshees/#findComment-5413342 Share on other sites More sharing options...
