Pretty sure it's about the same size as a normal crisis suit head. Just looks smaller due to the larger body

Is anyone else a little worried about the fact that the Cadre Fireblade - despite being a multi-part kit - is only displayed in a single pose?

Multi part probably just means you can replace the arm sticking up in the with air with another arm.

It could be multipart in the same way as shadowsun is multipart.
Meaning you have to glue on the arms but they only really work one way.

Like i said before tau just seem too clunky to me. I understand some of their stuff is probably about firepower but i expect it to look more refined rather than blocky. For me the xv-9 from forgeworld is a model done almost exactly how i'd like tau to be done. What i see with the re-release is how i didn't want tau to be done. That said the railgun broadside (the broadside still looks kind of dumb right now in the back), the pathfinders in a nice plastic kit (though it could've looked a bit more sleek) and the monstrous creature sized battle-suits all seem like steps in the right direction (still can't get over the small midget head). I even don't mind the characters but some things needed to be improved.

Whatever as long as sisters and eldar get a re-vamp next. Please give sisters artificer armor as well as power armored faith units with rosariuses and other ornate crafting, more faith abilities with possible martyrdom or an equivalent and just a re-vamp in units and everything in general. Sadly sisters are probably dead and buried much to melissia's dismay if she even still cares anymore. What saddens me is that sisters of battle have the potential to be great if you throw out a ton of gothic and ornate holy symbols such as lions or maybe a larger golden eagle like with guardsmen except larger and more detailed but in a sort of archaic and gothic way. Perhaps sisters could even get more flamers and melta weapons if possible. They could also do well for some nice buff-mobile type units with a large holy artifact that gets pushed around and gives them zeal.

Sorry about that i went on a rant again. Just thinking of what might make some armies better or nicer to look at .

More related to the article at hand could anybody good us a general idea of what's new in the codex when they get it? An example would be weapon stats, model profiles and an idea of special rules or what's new about them. A general idea is fine. I don't entirely need the point cost for everything but a general idea would be nice.

This is strange. Just did the math, and in the UK bundle, you actually save almost £25...
