KT Chalnath PSA: Tau Pathfinder Upgrade Sprue Is A Ripoff

[Tao Tsê-Mung]

This is the upgrade sprue which will be raising the cost of the pathfinder kits by $15-20. It is without exaggeration all bits which both Pathfinder and Fire Warrior kits already have in surplus. The limiting factor in all Tau infantry kits is the number of torsos. There’s already lots of extra heads, pulse weapons, pistols, grenades, ammo cartridges, marker lights, various lenses & binocs, arms, antennas even extra crouching sniper legs.

That rail-rifle sniper they keep using in ad photos is already in the existing $32 kit. And the part about building a few new Pathfinders is basically a lie.

This also virtually guarantees the contents of the Chalnath box will not be worth the $170 price tag since the terrain is less than in the $130 starter.

Just thought I’d give a heads up to folks who might be unfamiliar with Tau etc.

But but but...there's a guy...standing on a rock!!!! Clearly that is worth something?!?

[Tao Tsê-Mung]

It’s like a bad Christmas joke. You don’t even get that guy, you get just the trousers, on a rock . . . 

[Brother Glacius]

That is all there is left of him because he stupidly stood on a rock in a fireflight, thus elevating his position and then getting vaporized.
