I really don't understand the Krieg box then, not only with how little points it has but that it also has the worst discount of all of them? I thought it would be a bit cheaper then as they did that before but if they all are £155 why make a box that both has the lowest points and the lowest discount at only 23%

 

Possibly because pretty much everything in the Kreiger box is new I think. The Slaaneshi one is all less than a year old too, I wonder what the total discount is like on that.

Has anyone/site provided a list of savings for each box?

The Tyranid box seems like a good way of getting some discounted monsters but that's about it.

Spikeybits have a breakdown for each box but each one is a separate article.

It’s an interesting one. I’ve got the tyranid half of the ultimate starter (aka a combat patrol). The big monster set might complement that well if I wanted an army. Alternatively though, I could get the tyranid half of leviathan to still have a neurotitan and screamer killer, plus loads more little guys. 
 

That’s the better choice, clearly. And better yet is to do neither, as I don’t actually play 40K.

The other thing to consider with the value of the boxes is the age of the sculpts. The Tau set has a lot of fairly old models in there which have been available for some time, in other boxes and can often be picked up second hand. The Emperor's children in contrast are all new and shiny and this is largely the first opportunity to pick them up cheaply after the launch box.

The bigger issue is that the tau models are fairly expensive compared to many others. Crisis suits are an £€$ outlier compared to their peers generally.
