I picked up the single eldar jetbike for 15 bucks. Assembled and painted it and then put it on the base it came with in the box. Whoa, im thinking to myself. 50 or 60 of these suckers on the table with bases THIS big? Wow.
Then I went to GWs bases for sale and saw they have 2 sizes. big and small flying bases.

Are jetbikes supposed to be on the big one, or the little one? Im thinking the little one, because I can fit a landraider on this base.

Thanks!

Yes, jetbikes come with the small flying base. The big one is for Falcons etc.

All my jetbikes came with large bases.
My friend while assembling some of his jetbikes with the tiny bases said

"you're killing me smalls!"

and somehow it was funny for hours

The jetbikes and vypers used to all come with small.
For your jetbikes, equip them with whatever bases yours came with and you can't go wrong. Otherwise make sure they're all the same size.

First plastic bikes I bought back in the late nineties had small bases, When GW released the first battleforce boxed set the bikes had large bases. Newly packaged 3 bike units are on small bases. Depending on the age of the inventory you are buying you might get small or large bases.
