Apparently we get like 13 of them in a box. Current rumor is same price as a Start Collecting.

Also that Pendelum is in the Bonespitters focus https://www.warhammer-community.com/2018/06/04/4th-june-faction-focus-bonesplitterzgw-homepage-post-3/

It appears unlike the rest this one only moves in a straight line.

I guess 13 makes sense; 8 for the winds of magic, 3 for the Chaos gods, then the maw for ogres and the foot of gork for the green skins.

Basically the pics from all the stuff for the new starter set is out except the books.

Same number of miniatures as the old starter basically, but much better done, particularly the Death characters.

Hopefully it'll still be £75.

Why that seems decently reasonable for the size of some of those models. Better then paying 20 bucks for each of them as some people theorized. 80 for the whole set seems reasonable by GW standards.

I just wanted to buy the one spell that was thematically appropriate for my army instead of dropping $80.

If Sigmarines started out with that styling I don't think the backlash against them would have been as bad. These ones actually have character.

While GW are likely to release a new Stormcast army book to incorporate all the new models, the warscrolls/statblicks required to run each individual unit have always been made available for free.
