What is the appropriate base size for guardian jetbikes? I've gotten them with large and small flying bases. They are pictured in the new codex with both sizes, but primarily small.

If more of us valued food and cheer and 40K over hoarded gold, it would be a merrier world. |

I think you can use either.
I use the larger ones because I think they look much better. The smaller bases are much better for tactical purposes, such as hiding and close combat, but I like the appearance too much.
Did I also mention that I glued the bikes to the stands before I knew about the smaller bases?

I haven't seen jetbikes on anything but flying bases in the past, but I imagine they'd look pretty darn cool on some of the lozenge bases we've been discussing in the post Mannahnin linked to.

Given the height of the model off the base, there are still plenty of ways to make a small flying base look good for a jetbike. I'm in favor of the more tactically sound option. if they can still look good, why hamper yourself?
