It’s hard to get a sense of the, aha, scale.
It could be quite dinky, like a Chaos Familiar or those wee critters that follow the Armies of Sigmar. Or, it could horsey sized, and so be a mount.

If it was mount sized, it would definitely have more details.
GW painting team usually only 'cheats' detail by painting them on only on really small bits. This is below skink sized, IMO.

There is something about the design feel of it to me- the ridges, the indent and the suggested over all form that just has a Votann feel. The camo and the strapping are very unfamiliar though, but haven't seen that on any other ranges so it could be new.

They actually do more than that in many instances. One of the ex-painter folks had mentioned that they'll commonly do individual alternate components separately and the photo team will take pictures of the component for the webstore's little popout of alternate components.

Correct, because the Guard got their army book updated for 9th right before 10th. It's not like these rumor engines are likely to be solved next week. It might be stuff for whenever Guard get their book done for 10th. Anyways, I'm still thinking Guard. The cloth doesn't look right for being LoV material.

I take it all back. There's a two-part camouflage pattern. If you look at the cloak of the Kasrkin Marksman, you can see the pattern in question. It's really faint on the rumour engine but that distinctive splinter camo pattern is there.
It's Cadian.

Now do the 360 and view the rear of the cloak.
There's a black jag pattern layered over top of a light green jag pattern. When viewed in the 360 view you can see that the jags are irregularly shaped and interlocked, rather than being done how the pattern on the armor is where it's a shape within a shape.
It's weird that you're pointing at the grenade for that cylinder, given that the grenade is recessed lines rather than raised lines.

Look at the Rumor Engine photo again. From the "u" to "u" in "Rumour", there's a black jag overlapping the white-ish "L" shaped bit. There's also what looks like another jag on the "gi" of "Engine". I know it's hard to make out, given that they grayscaled the photo. But I promise you it's there!

Maybe a more literal interpretation (The modern studio seems to be going in an AoS direction sometimes) of the brainleaf?
https://wh40k.lexicanum.com/wiki/Brainleaf
And there is also whatever the venus flytrap inspired things still on the Catachan weapons team are.
But the scale of the brush strokes implies a fairly large object and that size combined with what we can see doesn't look like it's attached to any kind of tradition unit like infantry, a monster or vehicle. So it is a standalone object it seems, so Catachan/General Death World flora makes sense or perhaps some kind of AoS terrain or base scenery for a very large model.
Otherwise some kind of large Tyranid spore or terrain or "terrain model" like the Hammerfall bunker.

which makes me inclined to say it isn't any of these, because that would be too easy. the ropes(?) are throwing me off a little, since they have different thickness and appearance. if i had to guess, these horns are attached to something being ridden, so it's probably an AOS cavalry unit. maybe Sylvaneth? if they're planning on expanding the elves that far. of the three mentioned, Kurnothi feel like the only reasonable answer, but i think it might be something else, even if only adjacently

So, Kurnothi-wise? There's two iterations going on: -a catch-all term for any creature devoted to Kurnoth. There's insinuations of Human, Duardin, and Aelf Kurnothi existing in Ghyran. -The ones that are implied to have been created by Alarielle. They have soul-pods in their bellies, and what's been written so far is that they have the ability to be "blessed" with aspects of Kurnoth. There's also been continued mention of "White Stags" as mounts for some Kurnothi heroes. It wouldn't be wildly out of place, say, for the ties to be for a mount.

tut tut tut. Go to the corner and think about what you've done.
Couple of things are odd: it's tied together with something that looks more like leather. It's also weirdly ethereal looking, I assume that's a smoke effect from the actual photo.
Reckon it's hanging off something or someone as a trophy and suggests more Fantasy than 40k.
My fun guess is it's Exodites, but my boring guess is Wood Elfy/ whatever their AoS is.

in order of likeliest:
1. some sort of AOS dwarf
2. Votann
3. some sort of TOW dwarf
4. some sort of space furry
it doesn't resemble existing Votann axes, and we already have a unit to compare against, but that isn't inherently disqualifying. still, I think an AOS unit is more likely. we still don't know if TOW kits will be appearing on the rumor engine, so until that happens for sure, I'm skeptical of that. and then I don't think it's SW, but maybe it could be (unlikely)
my guess is chwarves. there are rumors of a chaos dwarf release in AOS 4th edition, so this might be the first tease for that

Post by: StudentOfEtherium
looking at Grombrindal's old models, the only ones with double-sided axes come from WHFB, and they have a different look from this
he also has a couple of models where he's using one or two smaller axes
and his 40K weapons are the most divergent, with a hammer, an AdMech axe, and... not really anything in that last one
so the impression i get is that his weapons are pretty varied! this doesn't really prove things one way or the other, but it definitely seems like a maybe for that being the case
74088
Post by: Irbis
In that last one, he has primaris style heavy bolt pistol (unless GW retconned these out of game while I wasn't looking) next to his leg. So, yeah, while this axe doesn't really feel votann I'd still bet on this being 40K WD as he typically has a lot of retro WFB aesthetic on his arms and armor...

You are probably spot on with the guess, as he is very associated with the BA Death Company!
From the webstore page.
"Astorath the Grim is the Blood Angels' High Chaplain and Redeemer of the Lost. He is a true Angel of Death, a legend of destruction who fights like a man possessed and brings with him the twin gifts of death and redemption. To confront Astorath is to come face-to-face with inevitable doom, if not by his axe, then by the hands of the Death Company army behind him."

Post by: StudentOfEtherium
this feels like it's attached to a vehicle, with how it and the skull are being positioned. maybe also a servitor? it's certainly not a weapon being held by a normal infantry unit. my guess is being a vehicle of some kind. not sure which imperium faction would get a drill vehicle, tho
seconding that it looks like something being used. if not for the giant skull, i'd think this was something Votann or GSC, to go for a mining and industrial theme, but neither of those care for servo-skulls all that much

I am surprised a normal plastic Imperial Priest hasn't been released for the same reason- does triple duty for Guard, Sororitas, and Inquisition. Not quite as many as servitors but still good.
Also, maybe some of their lack of popularity was due to having hard-to-buy ancient models in finecast...

My thoughts exactly. Antlers dont grow random like that, but who knows what the designers make up to justify the weird shapes.
Edit: just checked the darkoath shaman from the black library group, and that one had asymmetrical antlers as a decoration that is either growing from the hunchback or crafted as a kind of throphy rack.

Ah, but you see, people were buying them in the belief they're the good guys, and marking this as such upon exiting the store, so the number of Villain Sales has been smaller than projected
Anyway, if the latest Rumour Engine reveal is in fact a base for a single miniature, I hope it's a WH+ decorative sculpt and not locking a new character into such a large object

It certainly looks like the kind of tactical terrain GW would use for a jump Canoness. It's also a large enough piece to force a skinny girl on a 50mm+ base and thus a totally GW thing to do.

I agree, nailed on to be the jump Canoness IMO.

A left field suggestion - it's a relic borne by a female Cawdor gang or character. (They're established to cosplay as Sisters.)

Blatant fanfic. GW don't care that Peachy and Suggs are out there doing their thing, they're just glad people are talking about their products even if it's occasionally less than glowing.

Not even fanfic.
Just outright lies and bull poop.
Legions Imperialis “massively underperformed”, yet constantly sells out. Those things are, y’know, the definition of Mutually Exclusive. Your product cannot be underperforming if you’ve nothing left to sell.
And it’s not just “sold out on release”. Stuff is coming and going from retail pretty regularly.
Chaos Dwarfs “removed for being anti-Semitic” tells us rather more about the author than anything else.
Total drivel, which if any of it happens will be simple coincidence.

the entire post feels like it's pandering to an audience, and you can really tell what kind of person is going to believe this blindly

Daughters of Khaine. It looks like there's that mailed fist icon they sometimes like to use.

Oh, it's that GSC psyker we heard about!
EDIT: The hanging vial/gem is on every single GSC bannerpole. The coin usually is too.
