I'm honestly a little off-put by the new Obliterator design. More than the Helbrute face-in-a-maw thing, it's the overly fleshy thighs.
The spider-tank, though? Now this... THIS is what a daemon engine should look like: the stuff of nightmares made manifest into something not quite monster, not quite machine, but something more horrifying than both.

The naming convention for the new primaris makes it sound like sigmar/RG is opening a new primaris chamber...
Seems like a path to open up new primaris options on the regular, which helps with preventing stagnation with the #1 army.

Not sure if it has been pointed out yet but there will be new possessed in the box as well.
The artwork has a possessed guy with a claw, that claw is identical to one of the rumor engine pictures

Absolutely love that CSM are going to the more baroque look first seen in Dark Vengeance.

In the Shadowspear video there look to be some APCish shapes behind the librarian-I don't recognize the silhouette, but they do look to be grey, and I think you can see a large wheel. There is one in profile behind him and another front-ish on to the right in the picture.

Who would have thought that after all these years we would at last receive a proper Dark Vengeance style Chaos Chosen release.

I wonder what those other Primaris Marines from the artwork are, their armour design is slightly different from the already existing models. And since GW doesn't really do artwork that is in the tiniest bit different from the models they sell, it can mean only one thing...

They said all new models sooo....a wheeled transport like the current USArmy Stryker? maybe a new landspeeder "storm"?
I'm trying to guess model count.
Primaris
1 X Vanguard Librarian
3 X Eliminators
10(?) X Vanguard
1 X APC(as yet named)
1 X Master of Posessions
1-3 X Oblits
10 X Chaos Marines
(?) X Possesed
1 X Venomcrawler

Somehow they manage to make Obliterators dumber with every resculpt.
Chaos Tick looks amazeballs and I want the world's entire supply of them.
A new Primaris "Chamber" is a hard pass snorefest for me.

Personally, I think the obliterators look terrible. Everything else looks amazing though. The Venomcrawler is the best demon engine they’ve done so far. So much better than the old dinobots.

I quite like the venomcrawler.
To rip it appart and build something else.
The obliterators are i dunno, some parts look fantastic some of them just eugh.
I still prefer the chosen from the older box to the new marines.
I still want a propper cultists / traitorguardsmen box before a daemon engine.

No i seriously don't like it, the only thing i am interested in is it feasble to form it into either A Dark Magos or something else.
I feel it is just done ugly.
(not to say that is a bad thing but as a core model, na fam, rather give us a new better defiler.) Automatically Appended Next Post:
And also seemingly centurions.
I'd like a destroyer Cult sidegrade with smaller oblits, mutilators and Oblits as the big meanies.
That said what do people think about the master of possesion?
He has supposedly synergies with daemons.
That might become problematic .

Those oblits are darn tasty. Not totally sold on the tick, probably at least lop of its tongue - looks a tad silly.

Took them three tries, but they finally got Obliterators right! Basing then on Centurions was a bit of a no brainer, but it seems to work.

This Ninja-Librarian is the best Librarian Model they have ever released.
Maybe is because I'm biased as a Dark Angel player but I never liked librarians because they didn't had helmets and those psychic hoods and pool-hats where really silly.
The Primaris Librarian was the first Librarian I liked because he had an helmet but this one? Is so ninja and edgy. The hood, the pose, the sword, the rebreather, the leather gloves.
He looks like hes gonna teleport behind you and say "Nothing personal, xeno scum"
