Age of Sigmar first image of new models (Update with Chaos)

Caught a glimpse of this over on warseer forums... not sure what I think of these guys.  Maybe its the paint job or something, but a little too much Sanguinary guard going on here.  I'm hopeful that with a different paint job they could look pretty cool.

(update, the text on the chaos page seems to say 47 citadel miniatures included, which lines up with what's seen in these pics)

Lets see what else is in the pic... seems to be a standard Realm of Battle board with some new scenery.  I wonder if that comes in the box... looks like some portals.

Seeing some round (32mm?) and oval bases.  So, some sort of scrimmage force.  We've got what looks like a Chaos sorcerer at the top, so I'd assume that the evil forces are on the facing page (not pictured).

So, for forces of good we have:
1 mounted hero
2x5 guys with hammers and shields (champions seem to be slightly different)
3 guys with two handed axes
3 flying guys with 2 hammers

Scenery:
two portals?
(update) wall section

Evil:
1 sorcerer (edit, I think this guys is a good guy)
????


***Update***
Ok, so for the Evil side we've got:

1 hero on large base (40mm?)
2x10 guys (one set seems to have full command)
1 beast (oval base) and handler (round)
5 guys with axes
1 standard bearer (Khorne symbol)


Preview: Death Company

Check these guys out... the new Blood Angels Death Company. I was fortunate enough to get to assemble them for miniwargaming.com, and I will be painting them up shortly. I've posted an article already (here) with lots of pictures and some of my comments. They are also up for preorder at MWG for 10% off and will ship when they are released on April 3rd (here).

Some of my thoughts... the death company kit is awesome, however its not the same as the upgrade sprues you get with other chapters. A lot of the stuff is death company specific (the X's are etched in), and you don't get stuff for dreadnoughts or vehicles. That said, there is still lots of stuff you can use with other squads, and you can mix this stuff with other tactical or assault stuff to make a larger death company.

One of the biggest improvements is that the jump packs actually fit together nicely, and there is no gap like the other ones. The mold lines are also the best I've seen on marines, and the details are fantastic.
