TOW will be interesting, simply because we have so little idea of what's coming next. We can speculate that Kislev and Norsca are due at some point, but it seems unlikely they're going to jump to putting out three entirely new armies in nine months or so.
The preview video makes it pretty clear that the AOS Chaos Dwarf reveal will happen. Heresy will presumably be full reveals of some of the stuff they already mentioned. I suspect Custodes are too far out.
40k will be the new marines.

Really happy that the CoD are supposedly Golems heavy. I always thought it would be a great theme for them (was a huge Warlord Battlecry fan back in the days), even if it could be a bit controversial (small, dark, evil humanoids with crooked noses who loves money and have golems).

Maybe not every hat is meant to be a hint, but with them saying at least 6 games being shown, they could be. I think the first 3 are implying Deathwatch (obvious), Leagues of Votann (astronaut hat) and Tomb Kings, but I have no idea about the rest really. Maybe Dark Eldar for the pirate hat?
Especially no idea about what the Top hats and the other historical ones could be.

Dark Eldar seems logical considering that Lady Malys leak a while back.

I think they were just putting on every hat they had in their houses, no real hints other than being hats.

I think the top hat was literally just a big hat = Chaos Dwarf joke.
The others do make me wonder if it's a Vampire Coast or (another) Witch Hunter Underworlds team.

I doubt that it wasn't something planned in advance but rather they just coincidentally happened to own all these novelty hats .

Okay, I would have said House Catallus for Necromunda but I'll go with a Harlequins kill team.
Not bothered at this point but a Molech book for Legions Imperialis, and a new Armigers kit, would be all I'd hope for. A trailer for either Warhammer Quest or Space Hulk is long overdue as these previews have been stuck in wargame edition churn for far too long...
