Flamer and missile pods from recent pics. Was there a seige drill we were also looking for?

Edit: yes, and looks like a match.

I don't think it looks like a match at all... it looks more like a drill to me.

(Sorry, couldn't help myself)

Besides the foot Rumor have we figured them all out yet?

**Mad Doc Grotsnik**

Something 40K Maureens

**Quixote**

Looks like a bit off the old metal Kasrkin Backpack.

**StudentOfEtherium**

definitely a vox for some faction. seems imperium, but maybe it's tied to the votann-looking foot from last week?

**MajorWesJanson**

Auspex array or remote control for some remote platform. Plastic thunderfire cannon?

**skrulnik**

Plastic Rapiers

**Olthannon**

Fairly confident that's Votann. Same style as the pioneer kit.

**Lathe Biosas**

I'm pretty certain it's not Necromunda. When was the last time we saw a radioman in the underhive?

Errr... uh... that's not a radio... that's his pedometer. He's just tracking his steps for the day.

To be honest, I have never seen that model before. Good catch.

What part of it do you think match the pioneer specifically? It all looks very different to me, even just the big parts like the Antenna aren't overly similar.

Specifically that little antennae on the back of the Pioneer. Not as exact as I remember it but the design language is similar enough to me. Those 3 little indents on the rumour engine pic I'm sure are on another Votann kit but I can't think what for the life of me..

**Mad Doc Grotsnik**

A Number Nine Gubbins, I trust you’ll agree.

**Nevelon**

Marble snake tongue?

**Inquisitor Gideon**

Daughters of Khaine immediately springs to mind.

**StudentOfEtherium**

a tongue makes sense... i have no idea what it could be beyond that. i'm sure it'll be blindingly obvious once it gets revealed, tho

**KidCthulhu**

Yet another Vampire character with an oversized snake maybe?

**Inquisitor Gideon**

It looks painted as marble.So could be a new cauldron of blood, only with a Morathi/snake statue and has the old Khaine statue gets the boot.

**Olthannon**

It's a feth off long snake tongue if it is that.

I'm going wild and saying it's a magical lightningy magicy icey effect from a Kislev Ice Mage.

**Dysartes**

Really big tuning fork?

**MajorWesJanson**

Cow Tool, obviously. So new Minotaur of some sort.

**Lathe Biosas**

Someone picked up the fork in the road?

**Fayric**

Considering the new idoneth in the war com article, it could be a tail for one of creepy deep sea fish on the new guys base.

When you get to the fork in the road, take it. - Yogi Berra

**Mad Doc Grotsnik**

And when the guy is down, you kick him innafork

**Mad Doc Grotsnik**

It’s a tech shield.

Could be Secutarii Hoplites?

Would be awesome if it was!
Was hoping the recent Heresy preview Ad-Mech snippets would include plastic Secutarii of some type.

**lord_blackfang**

It has nothing in common with Secutarii shields tho (plus RE doesn't tend to show HH models)

That would be my guess too. Or something similar.

**Asmodai**

More a kite shield than the normal stormshield shape - maybe something for Black Templars?
