WHATS THE MODEL?
Tau Piranha
PRICE?
£15.50
WHATS THE THINKING THEN?
For this race game we have been doing I wanted "something different", a stand out kind of model, and especially NOT Imperial Guard. 'Cos if i did, it would be AFR Orange and would not look like a "racer".
so after going over all the options for the Circ De Mort game, I pretty much decided on the Piranha.
it is a small, light skimmer with a fair amount of firepower, but all very close range. the fit and detail were not that awesome, but the first time you put a model together you always make a few errors that second time around you wouldnt do, so i will be a bit forgiving.
in GW terms, its a whole lot of model for the price, but there are hardly any extra bits and only one weapon option.
3 GOOD THINGS ABOUT THIS MODEL:
1. price- not that bad for GW
2. elegant kit with a few nice design details
3. i rather like the gun drones
3 SHIT THINGS ABOUT THIS MODEL
1. compared to IG and SM kits the detail and fit is a bit poor
2. no extras or options
3. poor detail
LONG STORY SHORT...
unpopular armies pay less for toys. but those toys are maybe not the best...
WORD.
