Store retailers are saying Games Workshop has pulled more Tau miniatures from active duty. Come see what may be coming soon for the Tau!

Via BoLS

 

Tau Empire:

The following kits have been pulled from compulsory restock by retailers:

  • Tau Fire Warriors
  • Tau XV8 Crisis Battlesuit Team

This means those kits will get replaced with either re-boxes, or updated models in the very near future.  Note that the XV8 Battlesuit Commander was previously pulled from restocks a week or so back.

So this is all putting together a picture of Tau indeed being the first Warhammer 40,000 range to return to us sooner than later once the “Summer of Sigmar” wraps up.

This Week Age of Sigmar Releases (also Via BoLS)
