The art is great, but I guess we only will see pictures we have already seen at least partly, like some of the Lowdown pictures they have used. For example the one where we first got a glimpse of the hammer unit. The one I really would like to see in full is the one they used in the first reveal video, because I'm trying to judge since months if this shadow in the background is a flying monster, or just a tree. I just remembered it again because of the flying creature we saw in the ruler (picture attached below), but still can't decide on it. The others next to it are even more iffy. 

Until the last two reveals I was almost 100% sure we see Tyrion with this release. Now, I kind of doubt it. I'm as big as a Teclis fanboy as you can get, but even I'm aware there are one or two Tyrion fans out there. And if you look at the starter box, it has Teclis exclusively plastered all over it. I doubt GW doesn't know that Tyrion is at least as popular as Teclis among former HE fans. So it would be weird if they don't use him for marketing at all. They would have to pivot a lot in the next few weeks, and maybe even have another differently styled starter box (same miniature content, but maybe a red-styled box for Tyrion, in addition to Teclis blue box) on-hand. Of course they could have a vid on hand where Tyrion sweeps in on a fiery dragon creature and takes over for the rest of reveals, but it seems too late for that. 

I do think though we get at least one more big piece like a war machine, a big flying monster, a cavalry hero something similar. 

Plot twist, the other side of the box has Tyrion on it.

 

Also, that looks like a banner in the background, but not one that we’ve seen yet, as far as I can tell? Could be something, could be nothing?

This is how i'm reading them at the minute, I think those helmets under the one i marked zenith are probably wind and river so I don't really see tokens for any other big spirit avatars, maybe they don't have tokens though, really hope i'm wrong.

Edit : the one i have labelled sun could be literally anything I guess considering we don't know whats going on with Tyrion

I think it’s possible these represent units?

If that’s the case... Going from top left across.

No idea, Celenaar, Spearmen, Eltharion.

Hammer boys, Cows, Dawnriders, no idea.

The top left could possibly be the river mage, but the bottom right I’ve got nothing, and the stone mage is clearly missing, as are the archers... so... is there a second sheet of tokens they haven’t shown us?

Again, I’m probably being optimistic / am wrong.

So they did say at the end of the presentation that what they have shown is only half of what they had for the Adepticon reveal.  They are stretching things out to have some kind of content to show us, since they can't sell anything at the moment.  These small hobby doses will probably be the norm until Nurgle's Plague dies down.

I'm pretty sold on this box.  It has all the models I actually like out of the range, and I was going to buy all of the other stuff anyway, so I will basically wind up with a Collector's Battletome along with it.

My remaining hope is that we get more than just the veiled maiden from the other Elements.  I may pick up a Mountain Spirit, but it's going to take me a while to get the Stoneguard.  I'll have to figure out a conversion that I can live with first.

This. 
They said they have only shown about half of what the planned for Adepticon. They can’t release models because their factories are shut so they now have to drag this out until things can go back to normal. I was thinking they would maybe only release two of the elements, but after seeing all the tokens in the box, I’m starting to think that maybe they will release them all.

Maybe it’s overly optimistic but I think it’s possible.

I was considering what could be used to replace the Bull head. 

A Stone head of some sort , not sure yet.

I’m hoping there are extra heads in either the spearman or cavalry kits... if not then it may be a case of chopping and green stuff for me

[Aos 2 - Lumineth Realm-Lords Discussion]

Other than the bull helmets on the Stoneguard, I’m extremely happy with everything that’s been shown. I’m 100% on board and can’t wait for Saturday reveal.

A fiery version of Malhandir would be great. So far the most plausible "mount" would be the Sun Spirit (I don't see why a faction with Twin Gods couldn't have more than two big pieces anyway), which seems to some kind of phoenix. 

Not really connected, but hinting at another maybe relatively large piece is this here: After looking at the Rumour Engine and the Montain Spirit really closely, I think we still haven't seen this one here. It's similar, but doesn't overlap 100% as far as  I can tell. I could be the bonsai in the back, but I think that one misses the stuff you can see at top, the mountain part seems to be different. and it likely doesn't have the ledge thing on the bottom. Or am I wrong? 

I think you’re on to something here!

It definitely does not match up with anything we’ve been shown yet.

My only concern with that being the case is that it implies more mountain models, which means less chance of the other sub-factions being included.

Something else I noticed, and it could just be my eyes playing tricks on me, but in the artwork revealing the stone mage, you have the Alarith mountain guys horns at the bottom, and on the right hand side, you have a giant veiled figure with the same stance as the Alarith mountain guys.. so could be the river / wind version of them? The picture was posted by another user on this thread.

[Aos 2 - Lumineth Realm-Lords Discussion]

I’ve not seen this discussed on this thread yet, but sorry if it has.

Isnt the latest rumour engine definitely Lumineth?

Could easily be another hero, or alternate build for the Alarith Stoneguard kit.
