Thats what i thought when they popped up as a buy it now, may need to strip them and change weapon config around but can't complain for £10.
Only things i need now are 2 Broadsides, Riptide, Hamerhead and Darkstrider.
Things i would LIKE are 3 more broadsides, Another hammer head, Another Riptide, 3 Pirhana, Shadowsun and 6 Stealth suits. Just to have fun playing with options.

Just a bit of feedback required from those with the Tau codex, reading on dakka today that i can take two of the same weapons on XV8's without them being TL. This would be a massive change allowing for all kinds of shenanigans.
I read the weapon entry and there is nothing in it that says that you have to TL if you take two of the same weapons like in the old codex. Just that there are two point costs, one for single and one for TL.
So the question is, do you see it that way as well? Could i legally field two XV8's with 2 single Fusion blaster's and a target lock?
Edit - Pretty cut and dry really reading entry properly, got over excited by the 10 page thread on dakka debating it. - "Where a weapon has two points costs, the first is for a standard, single weapon, and the second is for two weapons (Counting as a twin-linked weapon of that type). A twin-linked weapon counts as two choices from this list."

Yep, does make me laugh that people are STILL debating on dakka whether you can take two single weapons of the same type.
It does mean i could take three weapons on a suit as there is no restriction on that and have one TL and one standard. And fire both as TL count as a single weapon, at least from my undrstanding.
