Litko doesn't seem to be manufacturing magnetic bases anymore. Does anyone know where one can purchase magnetic bases in the United States. I am interested in purchasing magnetic bases that allow me to mount 28 mm figures (both infantry and cavalry figures) individually not as a unit. Thanks in advance, Kevin.

I just took a run over to Litko's website, and they're covered with the stuff.

Is this something you've heard beyond the site we should know about?

I have checked Litko's site again and the only items that I see listed under the category "magnetic" are flex steel sheets. Yes there are a lot of individual bases listed throughout their website, but I cannot find any magnetic bases, only the flex steel sheets. If I am mistaken, please point me in the correct direction because I would like to purchase many individual sized magnetic bases 28 mm figures. This is one time when I really want to be wrong. Thanks again, Kevin.

Thank you John for your help. You sent me the link before I was finishing posting my last message. The site that you directed me to for shogunminiatures has exactly what I am looking for. Thanks again for your assistance.

Litko magnetic bases
Choose a base size then material
Under material are two magnetic choices
Magnetic base bottoms or heavy duty magnetic base bottoms

Yea, navigating their website, and using their search engine leaves a lot to be desired, like those of many companies that don't really work well.

I second the recommendation for Shogun. I was looking for a replacement for the Gale Force 9 magnetic bases I was using. I highly recommend Shogun bases and movement trays. Great service as well.

Shogun; excellent bases.
