Hi
I was wondering 2what the base sizes were for the new kits ?
Toxicrene/Maleceptor looks to me to be the big oval base
Tyrannocyte/Sporocyst looks to me to be a 60mm base from the GW pics
Mucolid spore looks like 40 mm
can some one confirm all this ?
i was thinking of converting my old scratch built Myceic spore models to a spor cyst model and wanted to be sure of the base size .

Tyrannocyte/Sporocyst are on new 100mm Bases. They're freakin huge. I thought they were on 60mm bases as well until I saw a pic of one next to a Trygon.

Mucolid is 40mm, yes.

I don't know about the Toxicrene/Malescepter, but I think they're just on the regular oval.

There's no such thing as "supposed to," and what you want doesn't matter. All that matters is what happened.

They look oval in the photos I have seen, but I am sure I read somewhere they are round.

Round makes it easier to make my own bases out of MDF then.....
