That green sprue is the Flawless Blades sprue - cheeky sods.

 

I'm sorry. Whoever discovered this is missing a career as a crime scene investigator or something. Go work for the FBI because that's ridiculous

[MoriyaSchism]

That Dreadnought foot doesn't seem to match any of the models out right now. Doesn't seem to belong to any of the Legio Cybernetica robots either.

[Chapter Master Valrak]

The foot is actually the Dreadnought!

I expect they're just all jokes, but haven't they before included something that turned out to be true?

Yup. 

Yeah they are jokes but I imagine the Hazard Stripe paint is hinting Iron Warriors like the rumours have been suggesting and Dropper bottles is something that has been going around for years (Heresy range of paints?). 

[WARMASTER_]

That dread looks promising! It’s good they get the heresy fan base too there’s be riots if the box was push fit 

[PerfectChocolateMadeleine]

There's definitely a kernel or truth or two in those silly posts, and I am on my knees begging for any kind of hint about plastic Mk IIs. GW!!, release plastic Mk IIs and my life is yours

[No Foes Remain]

Dreadnought knee/foot looks similar to the Leviathan's, maybe a 'lighter' version of it which completes the old 1st ed trio?

Valrak has said months ago that they're coming. I'd be ready for your life (and wallet) being GWs.

Still waiting on official confirmation before I sign over the deed to my soul in blood.

Alpharius (or Omegon) being the avatar for their Instagram is also a nice touch.

Looks like warcom is opting to intentionally not report on it, as its hearsay?

Hadn't spotted that – nice! :D

Super excited to see the new dread I’d have preferred a Cataphractii update over the saturnine terminators but I won’t complain as we’re getting the hallowed MKII

I think for edition churn you should retire this Jeff Goldblum and instead use this one:

 

 

But plastic mk ii? Yes please. Gonna have to start an army all over again!

Seems like it and I think it's the right thing for them to do. Great way to create a buzz around the product before showcasing to the world. I think they won't publicly say anything until 22nd. But between now and then, I'm expecting more updates on the Hearsay site and I'm hoping for the return of the potato camera.

Hazard Stripe paint has already been done by AK Interactive. Here is how it works:

 

1. Apply agarose gel in liquid form on the models surface. This has been provided along with the paint though you need to heat it up to transfer it into a liquid state.

 

2. Then press a tiny comb into the liquid (also provided). It will create a natural gap in which you will pour the Hazard Stripe paint once the agarose is dry. Once dry it is also transparent.

 

2. Gently remove the comb. Pour the Hazard Stripe paint into the gap.

 

3. Apply an electric current to the solid agarose gel. To achieve this stick your wet index finger of one of your hands into a power socket while you hold the soon to be painted mini in the other hand by holding it ONLY with your thumb and middle finger:

The thumb acts as the positive terminal (as in "thumbs up") and the middle finger as the negative terminal (as in cussing someone out by "flipping him the bird").

Your body will act as an electric mediator in this case channeling the needed charge. Because of the fact that the Hazard Stripe paint is electrically charged by default the paint will now move in the applied electric field. 

 

4. The Hazard Stripe paint features two colours: Yellow and Black (black is not a colour by nature but lets not be pedantic here) respectively. As Black covers all other colours it is regarded as a bully and therefore features the largest and meanest pigments whereas the Yellow colour pigments are by comparison much smaller. Now both pigments move through the electric field and the yellow pigments are faster because they are smaller to navigate the pores in the agarose gel matrix. So Yellow acts here really as a coward running away from the big, bad Black bully who lumbers behind. In a couple of minutes both colours have been neatly separated and you may disassociate yourself from the power socket and marvel at the wonder you have wrought.

Welp, guess we have to call every heresy centric rumour hearsay from now on.

 

News, Rumours, Board Announcements, and Hearsay.

Now's the time for the detractors to say they always thought MkVI was the best armour mark for the Heresy ever and MkII is a terrible decision to make the posterboy of 3rd whatever this ends up being.

 

 

 

I can think of a certain 30k youtuber saying they should do a mk6 launch box prior to 2.0 because it will sell well, upon 2.0's launch they pivoted and had a fit about mk6

[Matcap86]

Honestly I just hope they look good. I'd put a lot of hope on the redesign of the mk3s and didn't like it. So a little trepidatious, but ready to be hyped.

I've said it before; it Mark II comes out looking anything like this fan concept, it'll be perfect.

hard (and respectful) disagree, i absolutely love the layered / plated look the old Mk IIs have and I hope they just upscale the old ones tbh. This just looks segmented, not layered.

Unfortunately I think that’s unlikely - the released MkIII kit, (MkIII being an up-armoured  evolution of MkII) already did away with the overlapping bands style (which I personally also preferred).
Any MkII release is very likely going to be consistent with the new MkIII approach.

I agree it's not likely, but a girl can dream :(

Video is interesting with the post it notes.

• Hazard strip paint
• Droppers
• Jokaero Codex
• 24th June meeting
• Liber Hereticus

Also I love the video! Such a great joke and this is what GW should get back to doing more of!

There was a previous rumour from Valrak where he said they were launching a citadel expert range whixh would be dropper bottles
