Well today's rumour engine lines up perfectly with Valraks rumour for the chaos knight. By way of recap:
Siege drill weapon arm, a new gun arm, named the "ruinator" or something closer to.
Book drops with a 7/8 wardog battleforce.

Personally, I wish GW would let Imp Knights take double weapons (2 meltas or 2 battle cannons, etc...) like Chaos Knights...or failing that, remove that as an option for Chaos Knights.

Knowing GW recent penchant for kit compartmentalization i wouldn't be surprised if that was eventually the endgame.

A few reasons:
- I really don't care for Armigers, but I find their aesthetic works a lot better for Wardogs. If little knight spam is the way the faction works, I'd rather spam Wardogs.
- I've hit a place with my Deathwatch where I'm pretty happy with them as my Imperium focus and my Orks are a great Xenos shift in style. I don't really care for the Chaos aesthetic, but it works pretty well on Knights and would by a third unique playstyle as well.
- I don't have Canis Rex, so I probably need to buy a big knight regardless. Canis is mostly redundant to my collection, but an Abominant would give me a bunch of options to make my other Questoris work in the faction.... should GW bother to make big knights viable.
- I was told there would be cookies

Nobody knows. It's very possible production or shipping delays pushed it back. There's people curious if they're going to just make a Knights codex for both instead of two separate ones. The Battleforce had a very different statline so its possible they want to release the two together regardless to keep the stats in sync. It sure dropped off the radar though.

It quietly vanished into the Warp. It was initially on the roadmap with Guard and Eldar, and then hasn't been mentioned since.

My only disappointment in all of this is that the space wolf box doesnt appear to come with primaris upgrades, it would be the only launch box of the "big 4" released so far (BT arent out yet) this edition to use transfers instead of plastic shoulder pads

Might be that for once GW doesn't want to railroad Space Wolves players into playing Ragnar's company, which has the benefit of cheaping out on upgrade sprues. Everybody wins, except fans of the Blackmane, I guess.

They indeed look neat, altough - slightly small? I thought we're gonna get like a proper dreadnought size thing. Instead, they look pretty small even in comparison to a wraithlord. At least judging by the image of TS battleforce GW announced for 1k sons.

Quite a few factions!
Space Wolves are looking good, and if my brother was as interested in them today as he was back in the mid-90s, I'd treat him to that boxset.
The Chaos factions are light releases but with the splitting of Chaos Daemons this is probably a good thing; Daemon players are likely daunted by the cost of deciding which Chaos-faction codex to go for, while those already on that side of the fence are probably now eyeing up the purchase of the relevent Daemon kits.
The Dreadknight is a painfully missed opportunity to fix the most comically ridiculed kit in the entire Games Workshop model range. I dunno, maybe its so bad it's good?
Already tempted by Thousand Sons and the Sekhetars are calling to me! A mash up of an Armiger, Bone-reaper and Rubic Marine.
Looking forward to the Chaos and Imperial Knights in the next preview, with Templars as well.

A couple new weapons and rocket launchers on the chest straps holding the 'baby' in place is certainly a choice.
Shame everything except that one special character is wildly out of scale with the entire range at this point.

Not sure it matters too much, they're an instagib for the pilot if anything hits them either way.
