That is an outstanding vehicle. For as big as it is I don't see a whole lot of room for riders. Those FW guys can sure make great things when they want to.
Does anyone know if the newest eldar stuff is going to be in IA12? I'm talking about the Lynxes, Hornets, Wasps, Corsairs, Phantoms, Spiritseer Wraithlord. Or have printed rules/fluff for this stuff already been released in a differ IA book?

THE FUN HAS BEEN DOUBLED!!! |

Tantalus is more a weapon platform than a transporter. As you can see, both bodies field one weapon. On the other side, DE warriors just need a chain to hang on  Or the front arc is a warp portal  (remember the old Epic Eldar superheavy transporter with a warp portal!)
And the Eldar rules should be in IA 11, not IA12.
Some speculation from Warseer:

Not sure, no, but I've heard from two people that FW were working on another DE superheavy in addition to the Tantalus. One source on the Dark City forum said he heard it from someone at FW, and I heard it from another source as well. So it is possible it is a different model to the Tantalus but obviously we won't know until Games Day. I still think it would be a bit mean if the sneak peek is of something we already know about (Tantalus) but I'll just be glad when they put it up for sale.

Something dwarf related, or some kind of stone monster...?

My guess is a bipedal Skaven giant with a warpstone heart (top of pic is neck/collar bone region).
