Do you make them (I found round ones)?
If not could you make 5 for me?
Basically I have a problem with my standard bearers (particularly Tomb Kings battle standard) falling over all the time & I need to add some weight to the base.

I probably could. Are they on normal plastic bases at the minute? If so I could make inserts to go in the bottom of the base, that would make life easier for you.

Mostly on normal bases (so inserts would work great) the Icon bearer is on a "slotta" base so I would need to change him over but that would be easier than moving all of them.

Oh, could I also ask the equivalent but for the round warhammer bases? My seraphim don't want to stand up...

Why not do what I do Azz? cut up bits from other metal models and stick them underneath with bluetack - grouse  But if you were gonna get some of those lead inserts... might be a good idea to get a few extra... you know... just in case you needed a few more in the future... or if perchance one of yer bestest buddies were after a few... coz thats what friends are for. dum de doo... who do you think you are kidding Mr Hitler, if you think we're on the run |

I dunno about other metal models... that sounds too expensive. On the other hand, though annoying tags and the larger pieces of flash do do quite nicely.

... or $2 shop sinkers? That way you are actually using lead, not "white metal", which is not as dense.

Do u think you'll be able to give these a go?
(20mm square inserts?)
I can promise you a pre-order (so to speak) of 15 inserts if they sell (give or take) at the same cost as your lead bases.
If not I'll visit the $2 Shop & see what I can find.

If anyone else is interested, they're now available.
Solid lead squares, slightly smaller than 20mm square so they'll fit snugly under a 2omm base (or a 25mm base obviously).
I think Aaron's fairly pleased with his, so do your figures a favour and add some base metal to their bases (that's the best I could come up with I'm afraid).

Yep Im definately pleased.
Ive got a couple of games of warhammer running at my place tonight and Im gonna share out some inserts around the group. So they should get a really solid test run over the next few weeks.
I can say I had a wobbly Skaven standard that has had a pre-production insert blu-tacked in temporarily and it didn't fall over once last battle!
Not to mention the ease of use!
