Definitely Tzeentch underworlds. Long overdue, since khornes had three different warbands and the other gods only had one.
The Eyes of the Nine basically used every existing Arcanite unit, so I guess we’ll see some hints about potential future releases. Or maybe the leader will be a Curseling, since a magisters already be done

Almost every warbands teaser has had their unique symbol used somewhere in the teaser.
That is, unless GW considers the generic symbol with a circle around it to be unique enough to be a warband symbol?
They teased that tzeentch familiar and it was on a sculpted base. That pretty much guarantees it’s underworld. Also do those warbands have unique symbols? Warcry has their belt logos but do you mean the unit specific icons on the cards?

Oh neat! I must have missed the Familiar teaser, yeah, that checks out it is likely Underworlds than. Yeah, most Underworlds warbands have a unique symbol that ties into their faction, but is often different enough so that the warband specific cards are easy to identify. All three Khorne warbands have a symbol that is distinctly Khorne related, but unique.
Edit. Disregard my previous rantings, the Dread Pageant symbol is just the Slaanesh symbols haha. Yeah, I can see that fully being a Tzeentch warband with the knowledge of a Familiar with sculpted base being teased.

What do modern marines handle that is actually that toxic to require additional filters?

GW:"Space marines got too many options to balance, therefore we decided to legends HH units." Players: "why?!? Now we finally got decent plastic kits and you cut them?" Chaos marines players: "Since when are Daemonengines 30k models and why do i have NO droppods now?" GW" MONEY.... erm i meant TOO MANY OPTIONS (to resell your army to you again by disalowing former units)! Do you want specific tyranid fighiting Primaris? Even a new sabotage lieutnant!" Chaos players: Guess i stop playing or go to HH.

II don't love it tbh. I like the breathing bits but the flaired rim, whilst looking okay, is another deviation from the classic sillhouette. Straying into some sort of neo-tokyo looking stuff. Skinny legs, whacky head. Coming hot on the heals of the rocket box launchers, another miss would be disappointing.

It's worth mentioning that there's an antenna behind the helmet. Phobos is the best bet.
This is just art of the Phobos Strike Team variant Infiltrator.
I think it's just generic Space Marine art for the banner.
I doubt it's a tease of the content of the preview.
Spoiler:
Bottom left.
If it's generic Space Marine art, you should have no issue producing a copy of it. If it is from anywhere? It's probably KT: Moroch...which I don't own. The closest art I can find is the Vanguard Marines codex cover, but that lacks the extra plating of that specific model, which is the demolitions specialist.
It's weirdly specific "generic Space Marine art" if that's the case.
