A cleaned up version of the pixelated image just got revealed on the official site and oh it is oh so beautiful.
In the bottom left is what I assume to be a heavy destroyer/ranged destroyer Lord. Seriously that ****ing gun is the size of a space marine.
Next to him is what presumably is a new Cyptek along with a couple of helpers/minions. The praetorians and Immortals seem to be the same while the new model warriors are shown with the alternate gun.
The redesigned Monolith is looking freaking awesome and....those guns on the corners look a lot like the death rays on a Doom Scythe.
The War of the Worlds-style walker is definately sporting a Doomsday cannon along with a couple of Warrior guns. Spindly guy but he'll certainty be able to get line of sight on everything on the field. His counterpart on the opposite of the shot may be a suport version or something.
The winged C'Tan (becuase what else could this thing be?) in the center looks 120% amazing but all those lightning arcs etc? He is going to be fragile.
And way at the back is the big cheese himself, the Silent King. Looks like the two shields are separate models which will presumably act as dedicated meatshields for his throne.

Did anyone else catch the necron that looks like its surfing on a scarab Middle right of the image? That's the new Cryptek model that's been out for a while. I don't use him because the old version takes up less space in formations.

that ctan shard things. looks like its heavily augmented. I really like that you can see the light blue of the shard but also the green and black of the necron tech in it

I've seen theories that it's the Void Dragon (a C'Tan aligned with technology). Makes sense considering on how much more 'mechanical' it looks compared to other shards.

I think. They redesigned all the units which normally take the green plastic rods. Destroyers, Warriors, Monoliths. That destroyer is likely the new Heavy Destroyer.
... my wallet is not going to be happy. Have to save now.
The void dragon idea has weight. we will likely hear something in the Admech Book about weird stuff going on .
There are also small tripod units behind the monolith that are different than the skorpekh Destoryers, maybe its just the upgraded version.
I really hope that the triarch units now get a dynasty. THey do after all follow under the Silent Kings Hierarchy. I guess I am repainting some necrons.

Necrons went from a 4.5/10 to a 9 easy with the new models

One of the models that I like a lot is actually the Cryptek that is in the bottom left corner next to the destroyer. It’s pointing his finger out. It looks like he is carrying a warscythe. That looks promising.

That looks promising. I only heard it mentioned once but one reviewer assigned a name to the guy; plasma-something or other. Can't remember which video it was but the way he said it, it wasn't as if the cryptek was a named character.
And to be fair, with all these updates can you really see them not replacing the fine-cast cryptek as well? The weird thing is he has a couple of little guard/subordinate units like the Dark Apostle (I think, it's some Chaos HQ that can take specialized subordinates).

The 'Hyperphase Reap-blade' weighing in at +2S -4AP and 3D. I can see the model having s5 as a base considering the size of model (and Lychguard also have S5) so these guys could tear through Primaris and even threaten t7 vehicles with the flat 3 damage.
As for attack numbers, old school destroyers and lychguard have 2 so the most I can see these guys having is three each.
The really interesting thing is that different weapon options are mentioned alongside a picture of three destroyers; one using what I assume is the big reap-blade and two with smaller dual blades. Could be a power-sword and thunderhammer situation.
