Friend of mine texted me telling me they were off the site, just went and checked. They be off...
Any other evidence to support new tau models or a new tau codex?
Or has anyone else seen this?

Broadsides aren't going to be available as a kit anymore. They are switching to a finecast upgrade kit that you buy for a normal crisis suit (ala destroyer lords). Same for the Commander kits.

This is already being discussed in some thread.

Now you buy a normal battle suit and the upgrade pack on that page.

It's just some GW money grubbing.
They've started selling the Broadside Upgrade Pack
So you have to buy both a crisis suit and that now to field one.

Good news though, is you don't have 2lbs of metal being supported by 2mm of plastic at the ankle joints anymore. I'd pay a premium for that considering how many of the stupid things I've had to pin and/or repair.

Might as well just buy the forgeworld ones they are way better looking than the now quite outdated gw suits.

I dunno, a few moment's of pinning VS a good quality material. I know which one I would pick :/
and yeah, looks like you may as well just buy the FW ones now :3

I use 0.5mm piano wire, it's nearly invisible and sturdy. The model might sway a little bit back and forth when you move them but that's just fluffy effects 
There is no way in hell you will break the piano wire with anything but a bolt cutter.

Just buy Forgeworld ones; the price gap is shrinking between the two and the FW ones are much nicer.
