Monkey's Paw curls; they get announced and it's just a single character. 

 

Considering we thought a big second wave was coming and it turned out that like 10 Votann rumor engines were all from a single upgrade sprue for Warriors... Yeah.

 

Here in the phandaal household, we will temper our expectations.

Anytime today..its 1823 here in the uk

[CL_Mission]

One of the first things to catch me eye here was the racks of pots and bottles on the bottom row, some older Rumour Engine about to get revealed. Also the Necron on the right looks nuts.

 

[Nephaston]

At least three pretty big hats so far

[HeadlessCross]

Those shadows got me HYPED

[Deus_Ex_Machina]

Middle of top row: 

Garden gnome with garden hoses confirmed!

[DemonGSides]

Bottom right guy looks like a Jumppack Marine with an axe.  Wonder if it's for 30k?

[Nephaston]

Wow, that main camera is tearing something fierce.

Definitely a chainaxe, I think it's a Mk II assault squad.

Agreed, tho I understand why and I expect it.  But this next wave of stuff is REALLY cool.

That Votann Arkanyst has anime eyes… 

[Nephaston]

Oh dear, twitch apparently introduced a new feature for hype trains, so now there are confetti-esque effect going on. Getting the view obstructed by flying nachos and pikachus.

Comforting to know that GW will never be as incompetent as twitch.

Why have they enabled that horrible emoji spam on the screen thing... I don't want to see a flood of pikachu heads during a preview show.

I was worried they wouldn't be seeing much but I'm very happy I was worrying for nothing. This stuff looks great too, really love the strategist and the mad scientist look of the other guy. Not sure about the Steeljacks but the buggy looked promising.

"Year of Chaos" nothing, it's the year of the Kin!! We're eating good in the Leagues this edition

Is it enabled by the hype train? I wonder if they can disable that on their end. Edit: Oh, of course it's on youtube too. Thanks for pointing that out, over there i go.

Eldar should sue the Leagues for stealing their IP.

[Valkyrion]

I know nothing about the Leagues, but isn't making big dwarves defeating the object a bit?!

Nah, it's Dwarves with Big Robot Friends.

This is a pretty Standard Trope.

They're Ironkin, basically a robot with autonomy.  They're considered equals with the kin, which is what the dwarves call themselves.
