There's a few silhouette models being teased - one looks pretty obviously some model with a Shokk Attack Gun?

A mounted Kroot with some sort of spotting scope?

A Space Marine with an archaic power sword (Possible sword other than power, and the power is for a pistol/gun making it a Gun Sword) and a shield of some kind? The headpiece is somewhat reminiscent of early Dark Angels, but could also be one of the Chaos legions? Could also be some sort of Dire Avenger model.

Yeah it’s all a bit interesting isn’t it.

The kroot looks like a possible necromunda wastelands model

**Dudeface**

These are covered in the 40k rumour thread? There are saturated versions of the images so you can see some details. It's a mounted kroot from the rumoured Tau release box, a custode with a fancy helm and a melta spear supposedly and a form of ork big mek as noted.

**Karol**

It is a custodes character with a melta spear and force shield. Probably the least needed and wanted model in history of w40k, since GW poped out its last regular space marine model Lt.

The kroot ridder on a knarlock looks great on the other hand. I hope that alongside the character kroot get a unit for him to ride with too.

**FezzikDaBullgryn**

It looks like a Custodes Librarian, which is only as lore breaking as the Primaris newborns. I mean, I seriously hope this is false. All we need is a complete rebuild and for 10th to never have existed. Thats all I ask.

I'm excited about this Kroot rider...

But its silhouette doesn't look like a knarloc.

I'm not against new units for Kroot, but I'd really much rather have good plastic versions of the units we all know and love- Shapers, Krootox Riders, Kroot Hounds, Knarloc Riders and Greather Knarlocs. Once the classics are remade, THEN you can give us new stuff.

Someone on B&C suggested it's maybe a Krootor which is mentioned in some obscure fluff as "basically a crocodile with sensory spines on its head, has teeth and a big tail"

**Hellebore**

That makes sense given what appear to be catfish like sensor tendrils off its chin in the silhouette.

The gun looks like it has parts to a Traktor Kannon. With luck this "mek' will have something brand new.

Briefly I thought it might be Nezdreg but I kinda doubt they'd bring him back.
