Dorian, you might want to clarify the "zocchi" bases with Leanna before you order them.
I think the type of base you're looking for is this.
Unless I'm wrong, the zocchi bases Steve is talking about look like this.


Oh yes. The first one are the bases I am talking about. The rounded black plastic ones.

What are they called? and does ADB still have them?

Dorian, unless SVC has a few of them stashed someplace, I'd say no. Been buy direct from ADB for 9+ years now and they have never been available. Over the years, I've run into them primarily in Ebay auctions for various old minis. But I haven't seen any current production minis that came with a stand like that in a long time.

Having used them for a lot of my minis, I will say they have one significant downside - the pins are tiny and tend to break way too easily. The stands are also a lot taller, so if you're like me and premanently mount ships to stands, it can be a challenge to store them. They do look great. Just a pain to find.

There should be many suppliers for these bases, they are quite common.

Here's one US based supplier:
