Why they look nice I probably won't be getting them. I already spend enough on card sleeves.
If I do I probibly stick to a color and get no more than 8 small and 4 large bases.

What he said..
Been there for a year. The STAW bases work great for X-Wing... and they also have BLACK.
It is cute to see FFG do this finally... not that I will buy them, because I already have mine. STAW does not come in clear because these ships already come with clear bases.
Same price and no silly teats... I love 'em!
I got some of those when I broke the peg off one of the stands for my GR-75, but I always worry someone will squawk about them not being legal in a tournament. Is that not a concern? Left my transport at home for an Epic tournament for that very reason...
Was there a news article about this that got pulled? I can see it on the X-Wing page under accessories, but no write-up.
That said, I'll buy a bunch of these. Rebel Red, Imperial Green, and Scum Orange.
Maybe special blue and purple for the really cool Rebel and Imperial guys. Palpatine's ship totally gets a purple base.
SCUM is yellow. Why did they not just make them a deep yellow to match the arcs on the base cards? The STAW yellow matches perfectly, these deep dark orange things do not match. Glad I got them Wizzies bases last year.

I wouldn't be ok with someone using them...How do I know they are made to the correct specs?
I shared it elsewhere so I was able to find the link again. ![]()

Well the stupid FFG teats are part of measuring range. I do not care about that because I play at home. You might get some grief because of the no teats thing... dunno.

The STAW bases are way better IMO... and they are in the right colors.

They are the same size... no teats... right colors.

There ya go, that's my whole deal - they're recessed instead of having extended guides, so that's gotta interfere with template function, right?
Don't get me wrong, I WANT them to work...
I am reasonably sure the colours were chosen as the options in the transparent plastic they were already using - sometimes opaque plastics will have different casting properties, and that can cause complication.
Further, for tournament play the real winner is that you reduce the odds of mirror-match ships being completely identical aside from tiny little number chits. Or you could give IG-88B the blue one, IG-88C the red one, etc, for ease of distinction.
Y'know, that kind of thing. ![]()

Yeah you put the templates in the slots. It works better than the FFG deal... for me.
Me too ... so why can't it be now? Why do we have to wait till Q4?
This thing called producing them?
Now how about some coloured manoeuvre dial pegs so we can match the bases and dials together.
Do people really need more small bases? I have like 100 that just sit in a box.
But these ones go up to eleven!
But no black
dude just buy a can of black paint and spray it
That argument could be used for any colour
Seriously?
After 2 years they finally do this less than a month after I finally got around to painting my bases?
No huge ship base packs it would seem though.
Product pages don't seem to be active yet. I keep getting a 404 error.
a translucent charcoal would be cool as well..

Huge ship base = 2 large bases.
Pegs are another story.
Wish they'd packaged the huge ship pegs instead of the large ship pegs, because.........

Actually, they are slightly different. The huge ship pegs won't fit on large ship bottoms.
They DO need Black, and we DO need acrylic tokens.
Good news. I have some broken pegs.
I wonder whether these will fit the old ships or TFA ships. Those pegs and stands are not made to the same size (like many others, I have started separating my bases and pegs).
Wait, the TFA starter has different pegs?
