You can add a new KT Starter Set: Space Marines (Space Marines Heroes Series 4) vs Death Guard (Space Marines Heroes Series 3) and cardboard/MDF terrain

Card, maybe. The old little starter boxes had scenery printed on the interior cardboard box to use it as a building. No way GW is going to do MDF, it would be asking to be copied.

There was a Valrak rumour a year or so ago that GW would be doing MDF terrain so it wouldn't be surprsing to me if that was for this. The question is just if this is all or if GW will do more with MDF

Left hand side of the silhouette has a branch arm/hand and the drawing of the snowman shows it as young pine or juniper needles which it kinda looks like. Also seems to have a cold tone paint wise.

Are you jokin? MDF Terrain?

What's the issue with MDF? Some of the laser-cut MDF terrain available these days is excellent. It's hard-wearing, light, easily customisable and much cheaper than plastic. 

Making terrain out of plastic isn't ideal. 

I still think that high-quality, high-density, coloured printed card scenery kits would be an amazing avenue for GW to explore. https://battlesystems.co.uk/ does some great kits.

Combined with accessory kits made out of plastic you can have full, amazing-looking boards easily. 

 

I think that GW is missing a trick by not having a full scenery department.

Except this isn't MDF. It's made of cardboard.

This is MDF

I edited my original post as my source assumed it's MDF based on the pictures they saw; however, I'm not sure if they didn't mistake cardboard terrain for MDF

They described it as multiple flat walls and obstacles with images printed on them. For me, it sounds somewhat 2-dimensional and I feel like it might be cardboard rather than MDF

Indeed. I mean, when it comes to regular miniatures, it's hard to argue that GW aren't the #1 in the field. But when it comes to scenery, there's a lot of other companies doing just as well (if not better) at competitive prices. 

No-one uses exclusively GW terrain in their games. Not in my slice of the world, leastways.

“ Laugh” reaction from Whitefang on this post , so likely no snarlfangs chariot in armybox. 

That does make sense, if there was going to be plastic goblin chariots, they would most likely be an TOW release. 

I would absolutely love plastic goblin chariots tho, released in either game!

if any of our rumor mongers @Whitefang or @Whitefang back me up want to dispel or add in this list go ahead but yeah next event in in novemeber

As much as we’ve all hyped up Ogors on this thread, and it’s clear we want them real bad, the lack of a rumor monger endorsement has definitely kept me from getting too excited. I do wish we could get a more reliable wink-nudge than “HWG/Rob says it makes sense”, to add them to this list.

Unrelated to AoS- are the mechanicum knights a new independent rumor or a leftover from that wishlist/fake set last year that got really popular?

That's another rumour engine solved. It feels weird that one Christmas rumour engine was part of a mini from the next Christmas. So maybe those are not sorted quickly anymore.

Oh, nothing wrong. I just don't see GW making that step, so the message shocked me.

Looks more like cardboard, something more in line to the old WHFB boxes or what they put inside the kids' kits for schools:
