I want to say the BA tac squad was the first with the 32s. Not 100% on that.
Pretty much all the power armored guys went larger. Been a while since I bought anything new though.

I think the first was the Death Company models from Shield of Baal Deathstorm (but the regular DC didn't get the upgrade). Those predated the BA Tact Squad, which weren't a thing until the Codex update.
I mainly remember that because the rumors of Shield of Baal got images of Necron Warriors with 32mms too and that raised a fuss as well.

Thanks.
Ugh. Now I have to decide if I want to actually base them on the
big bases. I already have some 30-40 odd marines based on
the bigger ones.
Did termie bases get bigger too?

Put them on 32mm. They look a lot better on them. And Terminators are still on 40mm bases if that answers your question.

Thought for the day: Hope is the first step on the road to disappointment.
30k Ultramarines: 2000 pts
Bolt Action Germans: ~1200 pts
AOS Stormcast: Just starting.
The Empire : ~60-70 models.
1500 pts

You can get rings that go around 25mm bases and turns them into 32's, ends up about the same price as just buying the 32's but it would make things easier.

which boxes are you buying? Also, necrons as well have switched, and I imagine that CSM will swap over once they get their next big update.

I'll never be able to repay CA for making GW realize that The Old World was a cash cow, left to die in a field. |

Necrons come with a choice of 28mms or 32mms I believe.
