    Vince Venturella (at 2:17 of the video) believes it to be a new Valkia model.

    Nope, Parasite of Mortrex, without a doubt. It even has the joints of a Gargoyle wing, and the Parasite is a massive Gargoyle. The Tyranid body parts predicted in the New Year's preview fit the Parasite perfectly, it all fits!

    Looks like Space marines are coming up again.

    Must be just an event-exclusive Lieutenant or something, it’s too soon for Space Marines to have a new Codex. Oh wait, this is GW we’re talking about isn’t it? I stand corrected...

    Yesterdays Rumour Engine is up:

    22-03-08 RE.jpg

    This one baffles me. I have no idea what I am looking at. Is this a goblin of some sorts?
    And where is he sitting/hanging in? Are those hairs? a beard perhaps...

    Any guesses?

    Grrr, Imrahil

    Some sort of short vampire? Maybe the new Akhorne model? Very interesting.

    Vince Venturella thinks this could be a small hobgrot in a Chaos Dwarf's beard... so Chaos Dwarves? @NIGHTBRINGER, thoughts?

    @Imrahil seeing this image reminds me of an earlier one, from 2021 I think, that showed a 3-fingered hand holding a bone, or a blowpipe, or a flute. Does that image ring a bell and has it been solved yet?

    Maybe, but it doesn't look like the typical curly styled beards of the previous/current generation of Chaos Dwarfs. However, based on a previous post-WFB (Warcry maybe?) Chaos Dwarf
    [​IMG]
    GW might be moving away from the previously established aesthetic. Couple that with the rumoured upcoming Oathbreaker (AoS Chaos Dwarfs) release and Vince might very well be right.

    Interesting thought, but it could be a reason to discontinue selling the chaos dwarfs by Forge World. Because GW is bringing new ones to the table...

    Yes that does ring a bell, actually I know which one you are talking about.
    "Fun" fact it is a Rumour Engine from 2020

    20-05-12 RE.jpg

    This one is still not solved

    That's a good point. It wouldn't make sense to have two competing and ultimately opposing aesthetics available at the same time. It's better to have a single cohesive range across the army. That also means that my wallet will be protected as I'm completely invested in the Forge World aesthetic.

    Well I have reached a point of relative calm water at work, so time to update some stuff over here.
    Quite a backlog

    Uploaded the remaining Rumour Engines from March:

    15 March:
    22-03-15 RE.jpg

    For this one I have the feeling of either Necromunda or an model for TOW Empire(@Lizards of Renown ?)

    22 March:
    22-03-22 RE.jpg

    This seems to be leather wrapping of a leg or arm. Not even a clue for what it could be.

    Rumour Engines for April are up as well:

    5 April:
    22-04-05 RE.jpg

    An other creapy gnome like the one from 8 March
    They might be related.

    12 April:
    22-04-12 RE.jpg

    An armored person on top of a broken down statue, most likely a SCE special model for store celebratory reasons.

    19 April:
    22-04-19 RE.jpg

    Some makeshift hammer, hard Necromundia vibes or perhaps 40K Orcs?

    26 April:
    22-04-26 RE.jpg

    A Beastmen horn... It looks to me to be part of a piece of scenery.

    I very much agree with that. Almost tempted to start Necromundia because of it.
    Part of it because the sand people have a high Star Wars factor ;)
