Various online channels have their review books.

Banshees won't be back on the table sadly. Their Exarch abilities are pretty lackluster but all of the other aspects got some pretty big boons

Avengers have bladestorm back! Although it works different.

Scorpions getting +1 to their mandiblaster rolls has them coming back to my lists.

My Shining Spears finally get hit-and-run back!

I'm in love with the Warpspider redploy option (they're probably my favorite Eldar unit fluffwise).

I'm really liking the shuriken weapon centered craftworld traits.

A lot of really good stuff overall even if you just use any aspect warriors.

Finally have a price tag. Just can't spend that much for a book, the only thing I need in the box. The plastics will come but later down the road for now.

The book with the eldar rules are not in the box with the models,  the book is sold separately. fyi.

The boxset is only really good for new _collectors_ nothing in the boxset is great for gamers as the models are all meh options to game with. So if you are a new collector in the US, the price isn't too bad as there is a bunch of savings. Old collectors/games, probably already have most of the kits and probably don't need any more of those other units.


Sooo normally the price difference between US and AUS prices is 30-40%, but this boxset is 70% more, I think a lot of local stores will miss out on sales with such a significant price difference.
