So today I got my optimised pathfinder box. Was delighted, but when I opened it, I made a puazzling discovery: the ten bases included were big. Like, space marine big. Rather than the typical 25mm that all fire warriors and pathfinders go on, it appears I got 32mm bases.

Was this some sort of mishap, or did I miss a memo and we're mounting pathfinders on big bases now?

Hmmm the website doesn't specify which base it comes with. Does it say what size on the box?

The last box of Pathfinders I had were the usual 25mm bases. Might just be a mispack.

That is odd. The most recent boxes of both Pathfinders and Fire Warriors I've bought come on 25mms. Stealth Suits come on 32s, though. Probably a mispack, but maybe a change...

Not that I can see. The models on the box do not appear to have large bases, though.

It's supposed to be 25mm bases...

I think you must have gotten the 32s from my big Christmas box, as they only gave me 25mm bases for the Stealth Suits!

I would suggest ringing them up. If the bases don't look like the ones on the box then it's likely a mispack. I haven't found anything official showing the pathfinders on bigger bases.

Customer service are great. Youl get some bases.

They at least just send you a pack of 25mm out ASAP I'm sure.

No, there are many newer infantry models, or ones that got repacks, that are still on 25mm. It ain't going anywhere.

It's a mispack. I got the same Optimized Pathfinder box with 25mm bases, not 32mm.
