I have no idea, heard a number of things, one being a new command set, maybe that has a new ancient in it? Time will tell. 

 

Indeed - we should have confirmation on the box contents at Adepticon.

 

As for the Command Set, I could definitely see any Ancient included in there being new. The existing standalone model would actually take up a lot of space in a five/six-model kit - probably much more likely they'd create a completely new sprue with multiple characters on it.

 

I would just hope they give it some kind of unique hook rather than making him another comparably-armed Tacticus guy. I don't think anyone wants to see Ancients become the new "gotta catch 'em all" successor of the Lieutenants.

A new ancient would likely be part of a shared sprue present in both the 10th starter box and command set. I just don't see them doing another stand alone ancient this soon.
