The poor man really has a stake in the country. The rich man hasn't; he can go away to New Guinea in a yacht. The poor have sometimes objected to being governed badly; the rich have always objected to being governed at all

Whilst I've no interest in Grots (and am jealous of them getting 4 endless spells) this looks to be a fantastic release! I'm also getting the feeling that GW has split the army internally so that you can likely build a fully functioning spiderfang grot army with minimal mushroom elements and vis versa. A very flexible way to have one united larger army that can take what it wants from either half without alliance limitations; but also stand on its own.
Great release and even more models to come - colour me jealous that they are getting so much, but at the same time colour me impressed (And destruction has needed some much needed love as of late).
If you read the article, they said "Well, we’ve got even more good news – this isn’t even close to all the new models. Keep an eye out in the new year for more reveals, and check back tomorrow for some insights from the miniatures designers themselves."

So will likely be some more.
I just watched the video on the email.
Came here to comment. Saw pictures and thought guess that’s it.
Then went and sat to read it.
And saw that
So probably will be just those we have rumored.
I feel like I may accidentally buy and build all this instead of my current projects..

I need GW to hold off on Angelic/Demonic Aelves at least until mid 2019. Because I know I'm going to likely weaken for at least one of those forces and I really want to actually finish most of my DoK buying/building before that moment comes.

Looks new. Doesn't match the old BFSP Stone Troll I have, nor the old metal ones I can find WDs with.

Definitely looks new. It's too tall and bulky to match any of the old Stone Trolls, but its painted in the blue/white they use for Stone Trolls these days.

It doesn't really say so explicitly, just uses kit and set singular.
But there aren't ANY pieces in common as far as I can tell. Not teeth, not eyes, nor feet or mushrooms.
Maybe it's a big single kit that makes 10 hoppers, 10 squigs and 2 handlers, that actually seems more likely than a dual kit with no overlap at all. (and there are more pieces as well, the video has a handler with cymbals)
But most likely it should say kits and sets, one of hoppers, the other of 'cave squigs'
