And again...
Good finds Vitruvian.
Don't care so much for the appearance of the Tomb Guard though, not particularly good IMHO.

So so far we have 1 current kit being updated to plastic
and now a whole slew of giantish stuff
Varying degrees of want, I hope there are some older stuff getting remade. The army book better change their power level a bit unlike the recent orcs

I did not see any Ushabti in those pics. Any word on them?

I have mixed feelings - I hate the snake heads on the cavalry and the Sphinxes (Sphinxai?  ) look very gimmicky. Not sure at all

I guess if I'm ok with viking Space Marines riding giant wolves I should be alright with skeleton guys riding giant skeleton cobras....Eh, why not? Honestly, I think this stuff looks great. Even if you're not big on Egyptian-themed stuff, the level of detail, even on the Tomb Guard, is great.

Magnificent models. I am very pleased to see the new constructs. One thing I have to mention though, is the outstanding quality of the painting on the big monsters...the onyx/obsidian look is fantastically done. Kudos GW!

Judging by the accompanying text, I think they're two separate kits. It does mention the option in one to field it with tomb guard crew or a tomb king (which can be fielded on foot otherwise). I don't think they'd go for a third option all in one box, although I could of course be wrong.

Yeah? The Flinger, the howdah, the icon-thingy? I guess so... it's just the way I interpreted the text I guess

I don't think so, the bladed one says "two head options, learing skull or ornate death mask" and the rideable one has a different head to either of the two pictured. Also the Warsphinx says "can be assembled as either a kermrian warphinx with either four tomb gaurd crew or a tomb king rider", no mention of the third variant. those large arm blades are quite big not to be used on the howdah anywhere too. I think it's two kits edit: also different chest armour on both the models

Sounds about right. I really have nothing wrong with it having the same body and being two different kits. Its not different than the rhino variants.
