Kill-Team-Warpspawns The critters would be useful for a bug hunt in N17 but the midgets and hulking brutes look ridiculous. They have dialed down the horror and increased silliness to a whole new level. Pass.
Kill-Team-Rogue Trader A plain dog has no business for being on a tabletop in 40K. At least half of it´s body needs cyborg parts. Well, perhaps the first battle it participates in will change that...
Dudette with feathered hat & high-heels looks intrigueing. And every SM will be envious of the guy holding the minigun. I am curious how it´s profile turns out to be.
Ok, you can use the Rogue Trader models in 40K too! Excellent! This is something I've wanted for a long time. Isn't it amazing that after all these years the Rogue Traders finally return to the 40K?
Chaos Dwarves!!!
Or whatever bollocks they get called in AoS
Your last point is especially laughable and comical, because not only the 7th ed Valkyrie shown dumber things (like being able to throw the troopers without parachutes out of its hatches, no harm done) - Irbis

Cant quite believe it myself. There is always the chance that its a new universal spell, or part of a brand new faction. But is there anybody else that has fire and bulls as themes other than the big hats?

It could be from a chaos or destruction faction or could be the rumoured dark-aelf demonic faction. Anything is possible!

Doubt the big hats will be back thankfully but new stuff evolved from the FW chaos dwarfs would be nice.

I never thought I'd get excited for a bolter, but dayum.
Looking at the Ork vehicles, my feelings are a bit more mixed. They look fantastic, and in the context of a game about racing they're a perfectly Orky execution of the concept...but they're not really what I want for a 40K battlefield vehicle, where their obvious hot rod & F1 design influences seem a bit incongruous even for Orks. I'll wait for the sprue pics & 360's to make a final judgement though.
Not pleased that the Heroes range are still going to be blind-buy over here. That format may be popular in the Japanese market, but I've never met anyone who liked it even back when we were kids. Just sell us the models.
Most of the Nurgle team looks stunning, but I am not convinced by those "Pestigor" at first glance, though again I'll wait for different pics since the "house style" for BB has put me off things in the past that ended up looking pretty good with a different paintjob.
"Your society's broken, so who should we blame? Should we blame the rich, powerful people who caused it? No, lets blame the people with no power and no money and those immigrants who don't even have the vote. Yea, it must be their fething fault." - Iain M Banks

"The language of modern British politics is meant to sound benign. But words do not mean what they seem to mean. 'Reform' actually means 'cut' or 'end'. 'Flexibility' really means 'exploit'. 'Prudence' really means 'don't invest'. And 'efficient'? That means whatever you want it to mean, usually 'cut'. All really mean 'keep wages low for the masses, taxes low for the rich, profits high for the corporations, and accept the decline in public services and amenities this will cause'." - Robin McAlpine from Common Weal
Is that a warboss on some kind of buggy or bike in the background? Looks like he's got a driver, like the old nob warbikes. Also, it's blurry but the anatomy on his arm looks really bad. Hopefully it's just the angle and so on and if it is a poor sculpt, I can always give him a bionic arm...
OMG I need that. I'm painting a warherd army right now at my desk and have been looking at converting the gashing jaw spell into a bull head. Then that picture, exactly what I was wanting! New beast man army?

I think the arm is down to foreshortening and there being something behind him.
Also, why can they not google what a bulls hooves look like?
