Over the month of December GW will drop a rumor engine advent calendar every day, starting with a mechanical foot & someone holding a book!
Warhammer Community just unveiled a rumor engine on the first and second day of December and this time it’s a mechanical foot!
Check out the details of this new bit that looks to be on the way for 40k or AoS.

Winter Break: Advent Calendar Day 2
The 2nd day features whats looks like someone holding a book and a scroll. It might be a model for 40k or AoS seeing that there isn’t really any factors point at either. However, my money is on some sort of “flavor” model. Every year there are some collector-style models that arent meant to played in-game and instead are just neat models to have on display. However, if this is a real in-game model, I’d have to side with either Imperium in 40k, or Order in AoS, as the hand seems pretty natural and healthy for a human.
Is that an =I= on the cover? hmm…
Robo-Achilles: Advent Calendar Day 1
This rumor engine doesn’t leave too much to the imagination. With the gear/bearing on the side of the foot, we can come to two conclusions. One, it is almost certainly in the 40k universe. And two, it’s probably Adeptus Mechanicus or some sort of fancy unit for the Imperium. The big question is what unit could we be getting? Is this a brand new unit we haven’t seen yet or possibly a new character?
What do you think these are? Do you like GW taking this Advent Calendar approach to get in the spirit of the holiday season?
