From Sept 2017 to January 2018, Games Workshop let the cat out of the bag on their upcoming releases around 8pm EST. Pictures from the event will be spotty until they make it to Warhammer Communities as hobby hostage taker Mike Brandt has decried:
The venues, content and images from the GW Preview and FFG Panels are the exclusive property of NOVA Open
