I'll say the same I did over on B&C, it looks kinda strange:
On one hand, GW sending out the new kit to someone who ordered the old one (probably because of automated warehouse errors) wouldn't be the first time. Thats how Dante leaked for example. Also Warp Spiders have been up on the rumour list for a while now and after the other Aeldari aspect refreshes it also wouldn't be surprising.
On the other hand, why this blurry of a picture? That looks like its taken through a window with little light but then the box itself looks perfectly lit? Also with the other aspects GW has been pretty faithful in their armour colour. Meanwhile these look wuite a bit brighter than the older Warpspiders. Looks more like the Guardians red instead of the darker Warp Spider red.
Also, looking at other aeldari boxes, the unit name on the box looks thicker than normal.

Hmm, the background for that spiders box matches up perfectly with the Dire Avengers one. Methinks this is fake.
EDIT: In fact, looking at the spots of reflected light, I think the fake may be based on this very Dire Avengers box photo!

The black sections on the 'Spiders' appear far to black, with no reflections at all, almost certainly a dodgy photoshop job of that Avengers box picture for sure.

I just hate the false context of these things. If it really was someone random had been shipped it in error, there would be no reason for the potato cam photo. It's either mocked up and blurry to hide the fact, or someone breaking an NDA and worried something on the box would give away it was them.
Edit, way to slow. Ha.

even the story of "GW accidently shipped this out early" doesn't make a lot of sense because GW doesn't work that far in advance. for Dante, it was a standalone release, but warp spiders would be coming out with the codex and that hasn't been announced yet, and based on leaks we have, won't be coming until september at the earliest, so they wouldn't be making stuff for that yet, especially not in box and ready to be shipped

The MTO Nobs were £15 when they were originally released, which would be 27.67 according to the BoE inflation calculator.
Therefore, we can see that the price of nostalgia is £7.33, or 20.9%.

I’ve just seen that the Kroot Hounds are 25 quid, for 5 little dogs on a single sprue. Mad.

Yeah, comparing to the 55€, 12-model modern Kommandos box (10 orks+squig+grot) feels particularly spicy. The metal nobz and deffdread prices don't seem as bad by comparison, I think I'd be OK paying 60€ for a metal dread if I really wanted one and ebay had come up zilch.

Well, it seems like the launch box is still everywhere at third party discounts. So seems like little reason to buy expensive single kits at the moment if you want the kroot stuff.

Have there been any rumours at all about World Eaters?
I'm kinda worried that maybe they didn't sell very well and will never get another wave of models.

The Hounds, long spear, and trail shaper aren't in the bug box. The rest of the new kroot are. I'm debating a second one myself to bulk out kroot

I don’t think I have ever been so excited, and let down so immediately before. Wasn’t even time for hope there in that one lol.

Nothing concrete for them, but the main expectation is a Berserker-Surgeon character model as those was mentioned heavily in 9E fluff.
There's also an outside chance of seeing regular Berserkers on Juggernauts to join the mounted character model, given there is official artwork of Invocatus leading his own squad

The metal Ork Nobs and the metal dreadnought are proper nostalgia for me, right in the feels for some of my first and most coveted models. Part of me wants to get some MTO just because I can - but actually I still have plenty of each built and painted, built and unpainted, and unbuilt
Surprised they didn't MTO the old metal Killa Kanz from the same era.
That Waaagh banner Nob and a couple of those other guys are amongst my favourite 40k models of all time tbh.

New Chaos Space Marine Codex, Combat Patrol, 2 Battleforces, and - to my genuine shock and delight! - A standalone release of the Cultist Firebrand! I am floored by that.
There's also MTO Ork special characters and several MTO Tau sets.

GW seem to be cutting a few of those game set kits - the one from Cursed City for Soulblight also got cut.
It might be that GW is going to adjust some of them to be individual sets - heck I'd love to see some individual ones of the soulblight or even whole new designs of the units in those sets.

He did, but he's on his own sprue, so can be released as a solo model.
