Hi,
I'm searching for 25mm diameter plastic bases, but the ones with flat sides, like the old wargame factory bases, of the D&D minis bases :

Is there somewhere I can find these ?
thanks

How about Renedra bases?

thank you both,
I forgot to explain that I was searching especially for plastic hollow bases, to be able to put a metal washer inside it, for weight. Because the bases will be used for plastic minis.
That's why I cannot use renedra or mdf/acrylic bases.
-
Why don't you use washers ?
You could combine them with magnets like that:

Because I already have a collection with plastic bases, and I'd like to base all the figures the same way. I'm also a big fan of washers, i'm using them for a lot of my figures already ;)
thank you
edit : but yes, I could rebase the plastic bases figures with metal washers instead... Perhaps the simpliest solution.

Reaper Minis makes hollow round bases with flat sides. My only complaint is they are 4mm tall, which is a bit thick for bases. It's the round RPG bases. They're USA based but ship worldwide, not sure if there's a distributor in the EU

Mantic Games also has round plastic bases. They aren't completely hollow, but mantic figs are usually made with a 15mm integrated base so the plastic bases have a slot for that to fit into that is PERFECT for gluing a rare earth magnet into. The one down side is the top edge is a bit rounded, and the 40mm plastic bases are just discs, no hollow spot

Thank you ! The mantic bases should be easier to find in europe, thanks

Hi,
if you want, I can send you mine for postage from Germany.
I have a lot of 25mm Wargames Factory bases, I don't plan to use and I'd be really happy to get rid of them, because they are just laying around in my Bases Box and consume a lot of space.
Just tell me how much you need or If you want to take all (reads like a serious prolonged attraction to me) and if you need I have fitting bigger Reaper Bases from the Bones Kickstarter too.

Thank you a lot !
I'll contact you later on evening, I will need a lot of them, since I plan to rebase all my zombies to go with my project z miniatures.
-
I have 30 spare Wargames Factory ones (funnily enough from the zombie vixen set) if things don't work out or you need even more (postage woundn't be too bad if sent asa letter).
-
thank you,
I'll let you know if I need extra bases !
