Subject: What sized base should the new Dark Eldar Sslyth model come with?

According to GW's website it should have a 40mm base but I picked up two yesterday and they had 25mm bases. I asked the black shirt about it and he claimed that the packages were correct.
Anyone know for sure which source is correct (website or store worker)?

I have no idea, but calling a GW employee a black shirt is awesomely hilarious. I havent been to a GW in yyeeears, but when I did they were red shirts. This seems much more appropriate.

IIRC, Managers wear black shirts and the standard employees wear red shirts.

Judging from the pictures on the website it should be on a 40mm. It would look a bit silly on a regular infantry base.

The tail of the mode does fit on a 25mm base but there is some overhang. The 40mm seems like a better fit and would allow for things like flock or gravel to be added to the base. I think I got some mispacks.

I just wanted to add an update. I called GW today and it looks like a number of Sslyth went out with 25mm bases when they should have 40mm. So if you got a mispack call GW and have them sort you out,

In the picture of Sslyth + Lhamaean the Sslyth base is 40mm for sure.
