Leaked images are out, and you can see the new rules from the Harlequin codex showing off the Shadowseer and Deathjester. These are two models most of us already have, and will easily get into the field quickly. I definitely like the new models as well, (will be getting a Shadowseer), but I also liked the older ones too.
Here is a link to their rules
