No there is no mention of a TAG been higher that 4m there is in the fluff an ongoing attempt to miniaturise them though Achilles been the most recent failure (or success depending who you ask)

I think Alpharius was asking about the 'bird' TAGs.

There is also a new skill. Interesting, but more rules. Ugh. I dislike the killer hacking device ( it's bloat), so naturally I dislike seeing it on a TAG pilot.
How is it bloat? The KHD have made multiple very interesting profiles, added options for defensive tactics against hacking as well options for offensive tactics. Furthermore, it cost zero SWC, makes the model a specialist. The Hac Tao KHD profile is amazing, not only is he a specialist but he also gets a very good protection against the classic IMM-hack-the-HI-and-shoot-it-tactic. We also now have a cheap way of placing a Ninja Specialist, in addition the option having a SWC-free cost of adding REM's in your list, if you don't care about supportware and just want free 8 point order bots.

3 regular orders, 3 specialists and 2 repeaters for 50 pts isn't half bad.
Are these Manga cross over characters or just created for TAGline?
They're Irregular.

I was!
But I'm guessing that isn't mentioned anywhere 'officially'?

The second image shows them priced as a group with slightly higher individual costs and regular orders.

They're in the TAGline PDF. Officially, it says they're all able to be used in ITS, so they're technically official units in all non-CA lists.
Cypher and Switch are from the original Matrix movie. Cypher was the guy that betrayed the protagonists. Switch was the lady dressed in white that got killed by Cypher removing her connection.
Not sure where Bit & KISS! are from.

I'm pretty sure everything that is ITS-playable will eventually get a general-release model. Miranda Ashcroft was one of the few long-standing exceptions until very recently.

Thats a horrible pose and a waste of a release slot. I miss well posed models since they started digital sculpting.
Your last point is especially laughable and comical, because not only the 7th ed Valkyrie shown dumber things (like being able to throw the troopers without parachutes out of its hatches, no harm done) - Irbis

Forgive me if I'm incorrect, but I thought that the ludicrous posing of some Infinity miniatures is just the nature of the art style CB is trying to reflect, no?
