Blue is definitely a Stormcast for the new Underworlds warband. Big sword, the leg armour matches, and the left pauldron has the silhouette you'd expect of the unit leader animal face pauldron

Looks like they've already posted a Warhammer Underworlds sneak peek.

As a sidenote, am I crazy or does that look like a Chaos Dwarf with a crossbow on the teaser silhouettes?
You're crazy, its a Sister of Battle.
Yellow dude is a Black Templar.
Not sure what Blue is, saw some people saying it was a Kruleboy or something but I dont see it, looks more like a witchhunter to me ala some of the other recent Cities of Sigmar models.
This one does seem to, but given two factions in AoS(Stormcast and Dark Elf remnants) have magazine fed crossbows that's a bit less of a definitive thing for figuring it out.
Its pretty clearly wearing a sororitas helmet and has the poofy sororitas sleeves. Proportionately it is also fairly lean and has a narrow waist. Its a sororitas.

That post was made when all we had was the teaser from the top of the article. With the full on teaser that we have now? Yeah. It's a lot more obvious that it's something Sororitas.

Crossbow is almost certainly a kruel boy for shadespire.
Sword in the middle is black templar.
And no clue with the lantern person on the right.

Or a knight...
We got the warband name today: Xandire's Truthseekers.

As in the Stormcast rank? I'd believe it

Warcry is the most intriguing one. It hasn't really been touched since the second starter box. Cautiously excited.

Tin Foil moment. Kinda.
They describe it as a Grand Host of reveals…..that’s curious wording to my mind. It is however also the end of a long day with a very challenging (in a positive “man I have to think about this proper hard” way) phone call rounding it off!

TBF the Specialist stuff seems to get bursts of content then another game gets a run. I was certain Titanicus got quite a bit recently in between Necromunda, Blood Bowl, and LotR.
Then again I could have sworn that Admech were released recently but apparently, it was released four months ago. Where has the time gone?

Kinda, but nothing substantial for the game save for the Warmaster. Like Necromunda its chugging along on expensive Forgeworld releases.

You say that like the Warmaster was an insignificant addition? There’s also the Warmonger, various flavours of Knight and a now completely complete range of weapons for the traditional three Titans.

I'm going to speculate that they will announce a limited Black Templars box similar to the Beast Snaggas box.

GW oversells everything they do. It's always the biggest and best, even when it isn't.

Well the middle silhouette is obviously a Marine - probably one of the new Black Templars - remade Sword Brethren, maybe? And the one on the right looks like a SoB, you can see their characteristic floppy sleeves.

GW told us that was coming themselves and the reliable rumours told us what was in it iirc.

Red is definitely a kill team sister, probably the boss but it would make sense for more of them to have silent crossbows.
Blue is a Stormcast leading some witch hunters makes sense for a 'Truth Seeker' warband.
Yellow, Black Templar.

So the next KT box is already on the way? Very interested to see what it'll be like, as it no doubt will point out the shape & form for most future releases for KT21.
Will it just be a big box with everything (rules, minis, terrain) or will we also be able to buy the items separately? I haven't even taken my Octarius sprues out of the box yet, not sure I can handle another full box hehehe!
Rumours say it'll be SoB vs Tau with existing Imperial terrain.. but which terrain set? Sector Mechanicus seems to be rinsed to death already, so is it going to be the gothic buildings or wall of martyrs stuff? My money's on the gothic buildings.. In fact, if that building with that SoB statue is onboard, that'd turn out to be mighty tempting as the retail price of that kit has been a turn off so far

If memory serves, KT is meant to have quarterly boxes? We just don’t know for sure what form they’ll take. Just models, or models and terrain etc.

There's going to be terrain and a new campaign book, just like Octarius was. That campaign book will have missions which require all the terrain coming with the box. I think we can be quite sure this will be the case.. However, will the only option for buying in be a single big box? I hope we will get options..

Nothing in my post stated that the Warmaster was insignificant. It was disappointing for those hoping for a smaller titan but otherwise welcomed by most, and is probably more so than an actual Imperator.
Also I was referring to this year's releases, of which we are now looking towards Christmas. I've never heard of them releasing a "Warmonger" titan. If you are referring to the Warbringer that was released way back at the beginning of last year.

Why? We've had the new edition and finally the first two books. We're still missing a load of kits for those books and we know the first chaos book is October. These previews don't always have to be dominated by the two core games.

I think they said Sector Imperialis, but there's quite a bit to that range.

As for the blue model, it's lantern reminds me of the celestial beacon carried by the Knight Azyros.
