Wonder what the NewBorn will look like. Hopefully something different from the Avatar of Ynnead. Yncarne is cool, but since we've already had it serve as the new eldar god, I want the Newborn to be something unique, but still slaaneshy.
Also, GW, show off the full Seraphon under world team, or another warband, pleeeease.

Maybe, but Gods are pretty common in AoS. Nagash, Teclis, Morathi, the Everqueen, etc are all "god-tier" characters but also have a physical model. The [redacted] would be a good way to have a chaos equivalent, besides Archaon. Something Daemon Primarch tier, to use a 40k analogy

Quite the contrary, the mortal stuff has been long overdue at this point. It's been teased at long before Hedonites the book came out and is why it was silly that it released without a heavy mortal contingent.

Best bet for Emperor's Children is if Hedonites get Slaangors as a new unit, not dissimilar to Tzaangors for Disciples of Tzeentch and Thousand Sons, and that's if we're all very lucky

I suspect the "Decay" part to be related to the bloody dozens of undead-themed rumor engines we've seen over the past several months

Screw that, no offense. Slaanesh got a model release roughly equivalent to the entire DoK line barely a year ago and has kept up release for release since then. Combine that with how doggak Broken realms Morathi was rules wise, it would be desperately unfair for them to get more stuff this soon. Even worse for armies like LoN who have been waiting for longer or Beastmen/ Skaven who didn't get a real refresh with their tomes.

Slaanesh is the only chaos god that lacks mortal forces, it was going to come eventually. The current hedonite book is basically a demon battletome. You can't even take a certain command trait because of the lack of mortals and keywords. It's a barebones book. There is a reason why all you saw was keepers when people ran the army.

For Middle Earth I am expecting a new Treebeard as the current (really undersized model) has just been discontinued. Wouldn't be surprised to see a new Ent kit alongside as well.

...here we go again.
What would be of interest is something on the next xenos codex, KT and a hint regarding the next WHQ game.
Given that Blood Bowl has just had a new starter set it would be cool if Necromunda: Underhive got updated as well.

Yep its a 2 week pre-order on Bloodbowl. Considering its only £85 for a full 2 team starter set and everything in the box its fantastic value and its basically a "new edition" box for BB. So I expect it and the rulebook and other accessories to be selling really powerfully to the BB community.

If "Decay" is a reference to the new Death Guard codex it will be nice to get a look at the first Chaos codex of 9th edition. Maybe it will provide some clues as to how gwwl will be handling the other Legions in 9th.
