Most likely a primaris submarine. Probably to go with some Imperial duck pond scenery (you need 3 to make the tactic reliable).

That's the spear solved

A tombstone that looks like something from the realm of light? (no idea why I am getting that vibe)

its a gravestone squig!

Soemthing for the new Death faction in AoS?

Well it depicts a pyramid with rays of light coming from above, so I would say realm of light sounds plausible.
I would say a tomb kings blood bowl team if it were not for the misplaced candles.

I'm guessing the new Death faction as well. My thinking is that the pyramid represents Nagash's Black Pyramid, which caused the Necroquake when it was sabotaged.

Candles have always been part of the iconography for the Light Magic, plus the pyramid-like structure points my opinions towards something from the realm of Light. Egyptian-ish Lightn Elves to go with Greek-ish DoKs?

The accompanying text talks of "a crash of thunder and a flash of light", so it's probably something related to the Realm of Light in AoS.

It might be a Lord-Relictor model, finally, available by itself.

You could be right, Stormcast could really use another Chamber around with a Relictor style.

I wouldn't expect another Chamber, but it would be a good opportunity to release an Anvils of the Heldenhammer upgrade pack alongside of it.

And Anvils are next month in WD too!

Realm of light mixed with death actually gives more credence to the Tomb Kings wish. They used light and death magic. Food for thought...I was thinking more likely to be Vlad, but now I think TK players might get their wish...

I’d go as far as saying 100% no upgrade pack for them, or anyone.
The releases don’t get based on WD articles.
Also no Marine army got anything.

Do we think the hook heads are possibly also solved from the Ogre? Maybe round his back?

Blood Ravens don't have anything to get.
Imperial Fists, we know there's a sprue but they futzed it up. Anvils are one of the key lore players right now and haven't ever gotten any upgrade sets that I can recall.

Nope.

Scenery piece for season three of Warhammer Underworlds Beastgraves.

Pyramid, rays of light, runes that have a moon shape with two tears (not unlike the hand of Isha on Teclis's staff), I'm going to go with Hyshian elves/something too.

Undead Elves are not common models - I think that could be quite fun.....

Nope, it’s a colony of candle-squigs nesting on a gravestone.
They have these in 40k too; most prominently in the under-lit caverns occupied by the Cawdor faction on Necromunda, where they infest everything from the shelves to the rats to the people themselves.

I think undead elves could be in the mix, but warcry had already shown us the realm of light has Humans in it as well...

Apparently the order of light wizards has/had an emblem made up of pyramids and candles.

Would be nice to have a new warlock faction with powerful laser weapons.
Hold on, robed warlocks with laser swords and hyshian mind tricks!

Runes look like the ones on the new dead guys head. He talks about going back to his homeland. Maybe he's a native of Hysh.

I bet this is the smoke grenade that we thought we had coming

... It looks like

What's the picture from?

looks like it

Aww... now I want to see that.

Dark Elf boot?

That also could refer to a storm, ie it's Stormcast, everyone already knows deep-down that it's Stormcast, and the closest they're going to get to Tomb Kings coming back is "Settra is a Stormcast now"
