Fairly expensive yet not too bad compared with the price of the larger GW kits.
I can imagine it as a Ork submarine, some kind of Imperial small spaceship or maybe at a pinch an Eldar skimmer -- it would need tarting up with some Wraithbone fins.
It doesn't look very Tau but could be used for a Tau allied unit.

I would use something like that for VSF or Steam Punk settings. Organic and techy = nice!

You're right -- I didn't think of Steampunk.
I have emailed a question about the size to HLJ.

That's the package size.
The package is usually somewhat larger than the dimensions of the biggest single part of the model but can vary a lot from the size of the built-up kit.

I can't see it being too useful period, given that it's affixed to the stand pretty securely.

I'm sure it is affixed using an alloy if Impossibilium and Unobtanium, so yes, it could probably never be removed...

HLJ answered my question about the size.
Thank you for writing in.
The completed Satsuma is about 20cm (almost 8 inches) long.
Thank you for shopping at HobbyLink Japan! We appreciate your business!

that looks pretty cool.
Kinda looks like it belongs in Bioshock, or something.

At Games Workshop, we believe that how you behave does matter. We believe this so strongly that we have written it down in the Games Workshop Book. There is a section in the book where we talk about the values we expect all staff to demonstrate in their working lives. These values are Lawyers, Guns and Money. |

It has the look of old Tau equipment. Before they'd got their technology up to the level it is now.
