I'd buy a Seraphon Blood Bowl team for the sheer principal of it if they announce it.
I agree with the comments about the models never living up to the artwork, with the possible exception of the old scar vet that came with the carnosaur.
Why show off a new faction when they could brinng these guys up to modernity sculpt wise and make them as cool as they should be?
Although I'd be happy with some new Kill Team or Xeno models as well...
Poorly lit photos of my ever- growing collection of completely unrelated models!

Yeah this must be a trailer for the whole line going on LCTB
Given how closely tied Slannesh is to the history of the Aelves and there gods in AoS I hope more comes out of this plotline than "just" a new Chaos battletome.

Slaanesh was never "closely tied" to Elves prior to AoS, so I find it interest that they are going that direction now. Especially with how intrinsic She Who Thrists is to Aeldari in 40K. GW seem to pick and choose when they want their 2 worlds to have parallels or not.
I guess if we're ever getting an Emperor's Children codex, now would be the time. Might not be previewed at Adepticon but I'd expect it soon-ish if I were to expect it within the next couple years.

Several of the fiction pieces leading up to Malign Portents had Sigmarines wiping out whole villages. Several were web pieces when they released the 4 champion models (darkoath/gobbo/?? and whoever)

Except, well, Morathi. And that whole cult thing that had its own army list during the Storm of Retcons.
And whichever phoenix king faced off with a ginormous Keeper of Secrets in the Vortex.

Englishman is upset that a faction other than orks is getting attention. In other shocking news, the sky is blue and the earth orbits the sun.
Slaanesh Daemons is one of the traditionally ignored factions in terms of model releases, as much as Aeldari. It isn't a bad thing that they're finally getting their update. This is an AoS release slot anyways, which recently has mostly been elves and undead.

Not really.
More bored with the obsession with Chaos and SM that GW have. It's becoming quite boring. So boring it makes me lose interest in the game.
I distinctly remember new models in a box set that had Chaos Daemons in? New Seekers? Ring any bells? A harpist?
It's a stupid decision to release more Chaos stuff immediately after giving Chaos literally the largest 40k release this edition.
‘Stupid’ to release a faction people have been clamouring for since AoS launch?
I think not.

I wouldn't say GW is more obssesed with Chaos and Space Marines than McDonnald with the BigMac.
Is like, all of their identity. When you think Warhammer you think Space Marines or Chaos.
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.

...
The last major release this year was literally greenskins. (Grots but okay).
I don't think there's any real proof of that. Not everyone plays everything, and there are some people who have been waiting for a Slaaneshi Reunion Tour for quite some time.
We already got plastic Fiends, which are awesome, so now it's time for the KoS and hopefully some new mortal followers to appear.
