The gem and curvature of the weapon is why I'm saying Lumineth.

We know there's more heroes to come for the Lumineth. I wouldn't be shocked if this is for some kind of assassin-ish character, fluffed around the element of wind/air.

Deepkin.

Could be part of a magic bow?

The barbs scream Slaanesh to me.

Now what do we want to believe? That GW pulls another Ahriman to bring Fabulous Bill back to the EC fold, heralding a full-fledged codex? But then this is a bare hand, looking to small to reignite the Fulgrim-hype engine. then again Chaos marines tend to drop pieces of armour and go to war with cultists

AoS seems unlikely given how recent the Hedonites battletome is. But Underworld keeps giving us cools minis unrelated to full army-scale releases.

Maybe lumineth, or slaanesh. Dont really know about deepkin. The fist seems human/elf size, but the actual thing itself does not look like weapon nor shield. -_-.

Looks fishy to me so I vote something deepkin related

Lumineth getting Halo energy swords?

Exactly my thought.

Ah yes the 4 foot long punch dagger.

Apparently some Patas do have blades almost that long, but I think this thing is intended to be more of a sword-catcher than an offensive weapon.

Looks like a swordfish shape. Do deepkin have a war band yet?

That'd be really awkward to maneuver to catch a sword- its way too long, and you'd have to be absurdly precise and up against an opponent too clueless to alter their swing. A gap of a couple inches at the end of a 3-4' reach just isn't workable for that.
Its a fancy fantasy stabby thing, nothing more.

that fits bonereapers, possibly a underworlds warband

More Ossiarchs on the horizon then

Well, it looks like Bonereapers are getting something new.

If it is, it's for a whole new season. We have all the warbands for Beastgrave known--and Ossiarch are not one.

they might announce the new season this saturday

The sword says “slaanesh” to me. The next pic is definitely OBR.

Pit and the pendulum AOS edition

The hammer pic from Feb was revealed recently. It's a Lumineth monster of some sort...


and here's the pic with the tree growing off the rock


Hope it's not super old news. I couldn't find it in the thread so I figured I'd post it.

7 April



Reckon is the back of a Giant, me.

I was thinking leg or arm "armor." But it is 100% confirmed giants given the description. They're not usually accurate when they caption these things, but I'll take their word for it

I'm probably wrong but I was getting a banner feeling from this one.

Yeah I get a banner or even a giant loincloth vibe from this.

That axe is definitely OBR to start with.
Looking at the details though it’s also far too big for basic troop sized stuff.

I’m calling either more stalker sized stuff or a big monster for them (colossus?)

Looks metal to me- there's a rune-shape etched just above the skull.

My initial reaction was a giant's back, but unless they're showing something on the sprue or unassembled piece (which they've never done before afaik), its too small and cuts off in the upper corners of the pic.

I'm thinking shield.

Looking at the image again, I’m wondering if is Giant Scaled.

The ropes look too poorly detailed for a large model, but in line with standard infantry?

Reason I initially though Giant are the two top corners. Nice, neat ends, as if we’re seeing something unassembled?

Some sort of rock with stuff tied onto it, probably for giants

Going back to the stabby knife, it certainly looks Lumineth. The shape matches the style of Eltharion's plume and a symbol that's found on the card punchout in the new boxset. Forgive me if this symbol is already known, AOS is not my thing.

At this point it could be another Elf aspect. Literally any teaser could be another Elf aspect.

The upper side shapes makes me think it could be some kind of stone throne or something similar, it's also noteworthy that the center skull it's "stitched" to the back thru the eyes wich may hint some kind of hole behind.

oooh, it's another chamber of Sigmar's favourite armour stuffers on the way, look at that comet
