But, yeah, generally it sounds to be Nurgle now, Ogors somewhere at the end, and Duardin, Gargants, Cogforts, Cities, Daughters of Khaine, Ossiarch good stuff all wedged in the middle :). The non darkwater-thing could be anything! Not to mention the Eshin-featuring spearhead box!

Hobby Jackal @hobbyjackal.bsky.social · 12h

I'm assuming it's all of Darkwater and then some more Nurgle, but... They've spoilt us at some of the larger previews, so I wouldn't be shocked to see something completely different, and there's probably even a load of battletomes just getting a hero we're not even hearing rumours about :).

Couple more of bouncy boi.

BOING.

First squig hopper! Well, at least since they've become plastic...

That graphic is excellent! I forgot just how much finecast there still was...

Hobby Jackal @hobbyjackal.bsky.social · Jul 23

Could well be. I'm hopefully they get a bit of love this edition.

I did see some folks suggesting that just a revamp of 3-4 kits would jazz them up significantly e.g. Gluttons, Leadbelchers, Ironguts & Butcher/Slaughter master (dual kit). Allowing that two of the first three could even be dual

I'm bringing the following evidence to the maggotkin speculation: First, a glossed over part of the post whitefang had liked guessing what might be coming for nurgle. Second, a comparison between yesterdays rumour engine image and details found on the Harbinger of Decay and Blightkings.

Hobby Jackal @hobbyjackal.bsky.social · Jul 23

Oooooh... SOLD!!

Hobby Jackal @hobbyjackal.bsky.social · Jul 18

Yep!! Although somewhat uncertain whether they'll be a whole unit or dotted about the kits, but according to Whitefang they're definitely in there :)

Hobby Jackal @hobbyjackal.bsky.social · Jul 17

Could well be! I really do hope they maybe get another human-focused expansion out of the way, and then maybe an edition or two in the future, revisit the multicultural aspects :)

Hobby Jackal @hobbyjackal.bsky.social · Jul 17

Me too! Risky sharing rumours 36hrs before they could be proven absolutely wrong... But also fun :D

Hobby Jackal @hobbyjackal.bsky.social · Jul 17

Absolutely! I didn't really expect Pestigors to make a return at all. Let's hope most of this pans out :) 🤞

Hobby Jackal @hobbyjackal.bsky.social · Jul 17

...and thank you for watching! 🙌

Hobby Jackal @hobbyjackal.bsky.social · Jul 17

Some folk are theorising that the four armies that got the recent random spearhead updates might be coming late edition (and these were to tide us over), but nothing more than speculation (that's Ogors, Cities of Sigmar, Ossiarch Bonereapers and Seraphon) :)

Hobby Jackal @hobbyjackal.bsky.social · Jul 17

I am so eager for an Ogor update! I mean, I've been after a plastic butcher since they launched in WHFB :D.

That said, in terms of solid rumours we have zilch.

Hobby Jackal @hobbyjackal.bsky.social · Jul 17

Had a break from painting :).

AOS rumours in moving picture form, if that's your jam.

Haha, thanks very much! They're really fun to paint :) 🙌

Hobby Jackal @hobbyjackal.bsky.social · Jul 3

Haha, it really is! Everyone should have one! :D

Squig squig squig squig!
The herd expands.

A mix of 1980s and 2020s "squigs". Space hopper like Warhammer creatures comprising, predominantly, of teeth and bounciness. Painted orange.

Haha, definitely!
This snotling is probably not long for this world, if I'm honest. I built him about five years ago (the banner was a late addition) before I appreciated strong joins/pinning and those little metal feet are just super glued to that rock and base 😁

Hobby Jackal @hobbyjackal.bsky.social · Jun 25

Wonky photos. First beer can banner. :)
