To be honest I think Gitmob should be it's own tome and maybe take Spiderfang with them since Spiderfang feels different when it comes to the looks than the other parts in GSG (and also have it's own spellore). 

I'm more hoping for an overhaul of the spiders aesthetic to match the concept art:

Gloomspite Gits concepts for Age of Sigmar. Sneaky photos taken at the recent Open Day by a mystery grot appreciator.

That way we get new weird looking cave squig-spiders with moonclan riders and some scuttling grots like the ones from Silver Tower. Definitely felt like a direction they explored and abandoned.

Gitmob can get a tome, take the wolves and get the cool stuff like doom divers and all that back.

Honestly I am surprise that Tzeentch is that low.

Fluxmaster and blue scribes are in the AoS 4 squat list : so either with 40K daemons wave or DoT wave could be both refreshed .

The one in the left-bottom corner is a cool concept. A mix between Goblin and Spider would be very AoS.

We already had those with the  from Warhammer Quest: Silver Tower. A unit they desperately need to bring back.

I'll be painfully honest with my thoughts here. I really don't understand why so many of you here believe the Gitmob is coming back; they were squated for the same reason the Greenskins were; they were old models without any new ideas or concepts to expand them beyond just that. And you seem to base your belief about their return entirely on the existence of the Snarlfangs. I seriously don't get it.

They could have no ideas in the past, but they could easily come back without having to be a 100% copy of their WHFB counterpart. So literally sky is the limit. You can make whatever you want with them.

I really prefer the webspinner design a lot more with the multiple eyes. The extra legs just always looked so weird to me.image.png.86f544aa9f3410211abfd9df9d177782.png

Such is the nature of this thread, to constantly speculate & dream, high on hopium and fuelled by pictures from Underworld cards or obscure references seeded in GW books. I think you are correct. I also think (with regard to the recent BoC incident) that there are many factions destined to exist in the lore for infinity without playable models.

@DD-Lord Our local prophet has liked several Gitmob posts. And why would they release just one random kit?

I can't wait to see what they get! I'd love them to be rolled into Kruleboyz somehow but think they'll stay in gsg and that'll get rebranded into a new grot coalition tome or with any luck become their own thing. 

I never cared for the grot scuttlers, like at all. They're just too much imo. 

I could also see see Spiderfang getting rolled into Kruleboyz in a new and creepy direction. 

We'll see. 😁

My thoughts are the other way around. They could have stopped with Rippas warband. But why reimagine a whole unit with the Gitmob design if they are just planning this unit? They could have just put a moonclan or hobgrot on top instead.

Yeah these were what I was referring to. I want these back as a kit! I sold my WQ Silver Tower a few years back and regret not parting it out and keeping these goobers.

They show it's time, but definitely it is really nice concept!

Here's some food for idle speculation. So far we've seen four models/units from the launch box: Liberators, Clanrats, Reclusians, and now the new Warplock-Engineer. We will see the full contents of the box around May 16-18. That still leaves 3(!) weeks of reveals, an uneven number.

What will we see over the next three weeks?

Next week could a Stormcast character. What about Skaven the week after? And what about Monday the 13.? No reveal, perhaps?

I'd love to see perhaps a reveal or teaser of "What else in 4th Edition." See some hints about who else or what else is being updated during 4th's early life.

Seeing we are starting to see stuff that is not part of the trailer, and having in mind that the more units you show the less impact would have the final reveal, I think we will see two heroes. One for each faction and nothing on the last week. Maybe a shadow or a little bit of a bigger mini, as they are doing in the last previews.

They might circle back and show off the Reclusian warscroll. It's the only one we haven't seen for the new model reveals.

Edit: Correction, I don't think they showed clan rats either. Showing off both of them might be worth an article.

Correction.
