I do hope this means the Cerastus knights will at the very least carry keywords that don't lock them out of usefulness in anything but beer and pretzels games.

If it's in plastic I expect it will be a proper core 'dex unit.
They did specify the lancer though which is a shame would have hoped they'd make it a multikit if they're going to bother to bring it to plastic.

They did specify the lancer though which is a shame would have hoped they'd make it a multikit if they're going to bother to bring it to plastic. The reason I say hopeful for it being included is it was launched for the Age of Darkness 30k line. They might be taking it from FW, as upkeeping the resin moulds as well as the laborious production of a single lancer has to be taxing. If they can mass produce it in plastic and have it sell well, I'd full expect it to be turned into a multi-part kit with options and/or selling the lancer as one, then having separate boxes to "upgrade" to a different Cerastus frame. Mabye they're waiting to see how the plastic lancer fares before jumping both feet in on the full line and adding them to codices for 40k. Here's hoping there's a big groundswell of sales on it so the Cerastus frames get some codex love.

Yeah probably. The current knight kit has two sprues on it that weren't with the original release.
It's just a shame for me personally as the lancer is my least favourite cerastus variant.

Agreed, the Castigator and Atrapos have always had a special place. Less so the Acheron and Lancer; especially now that they're locked out of almost all upgrades and relics from the Chaos Knight codex. The only way to give one a WLT is to have it as your Warlord.
Stupid keyword locking...
