Simple enough: does the new Screaming Bell attach to a 60x100mm base or the standard 50x100mm base like the old one? Also, since I have the old Screaming Bell do I need to update the base to represent this, if indeed it is a 60x100mm base?

The old one was 50x100? How did it fit in a unit?
The new one takes up 60x100 (or 3x5 of skaven).

It didn't.. at least not well. But that answers the first half of my issue. Is it still an issue if I use the old metal model on it's old 50x100mm base?

If it doesn't comfortably displace models, it would have to sit on the side and in the unit itself. It may be best for you to get the new base size to avoid any arguements.

Or just bulk the base out with some plastic.

At work right now so I don't have my armybook, but I do believe there are very specific rules regarding the position of the Screaming Bell within the unit. At any rate, I went ahead and cut an old movement tray down to 60x100mm and glued them together, thereby resolving the issue.

The old one was 40x60mm, as it displaced 6 skaven. Mine didnt come with a base.
You can work out the sizing based on the skaven book, and this is why it must be based on the right base as it must go in the centre of the unit.
