Far right, underneath of the Blight Kings and behind the Rotbringers Sorcerer. The guy with the axe on his shoulder and the tentacle arm reaching into his belly.

Our favourite has to be the Sloppity Bilepiper, a miniature that sums up the repugnant jollity of Nurgle perfectly. Armed with a set of jolly gutpipes and a marotter (crafted from the remains of the previous Sloppity Bilepiper), these Heralds are the victims and carriers of the Chortling Murrain, a disease that causes its victims to laugh themselves to death. Sloppity Bilepipers cavort and joke with Nurglings, Great Unclean Ones and Beasts of Nurgle (but not Plaguebearers, who lack a sense of humour) and strike horror into the hearts of their mortal foes.
Meanwhile, the Spoilpox Scrivener is a downright dour creature by comparison… It’s the job of the Spoilpox Scriveners to ensure that Plaguebearers meet their tallies, a job they accomplish by relentlessly browbeating and bullying their counterparts with a barrage of insults and commands. On the tabletop, the Spoilpox Scrivener will ensure that your Plaguebearers fight harder, making them a handy strategic lynchpin for the rest of your army.

There's actually a comment in the fluff for them about that.
The Sloppity Bilepiper associates with Beasts of Nurgle, Nurglings, and Great Unclean Ones--avoiding Plaguebearers as they "have no sense of humor".
The Scribe, being the more dour sort, is able to "turn your Plaguebearers into a lynchpin".

They have kept Plaguebearers as dour.

Oh good. The smiling one prancing around playing bagpipes with a singing Nurgling threw me off for a moment.
He's not a Plaguebearer. He's a Sloppity Bilepiper.

I love the giant mount in his shoulder is actually his mount. And the Lord of Blight is a new model. The guy in the cover of the battletome. You can see him in the trailer when the warrior brother talks about his forces, alongside the nurgle hero with the two hand axe.
Dakka does have White Knights and is also rather infamous for it's Black Knights. A new edition brings out the passionate and not all of them are good at expressing themselves in written form. There have been plenty of hysterical responses from both sides so far. So we descend into pointless bickering with neither side listening to each other. So posting here becomes more masturbation than conversation.

Really enjoying all these previews (as is my Nurgle Playing GF)
The slug(?) on the shoulder of the new Tallyman makes me think of the Kingdom Death Sunstalker (which is no bad thing to be fair) but is another cool/weird creature that is helping flesh out the AoS world.
Those new Nurglings continue to amuse.
Shame still no Pestigors or Nurgle Marauders, but none the less its good to see the disparate bits of Chaos stick back together to make more fleshed out forces.
Who knew the Glottkin were from the West Country too.

Lovely guy on the cover. A personal gallow - transportable, even. Not bad. I hope the Battletome comes out real quick and has marauders and beastmen for Nurgle armies even if they're unwilling to give us new models.
PS: Still looking for a bull miniature big enough to carry a Blight King. Ideas?
Looking for a Skaven Doomwheel banner to repair my Nurgle knights.

Good catch! That's even more adorable.
