Stickmonkey has posted predicting a Daemons release in January 2013:

Daemons. Still on track. Vetock doing WFB and 40k books, but I havent had confirmation that the books are actually coming in Jan. Expect Greater Daemons in plastic, a couple new chariots, a new daemon engine, and a couple new characters (well...characters which have never received models) Word is the Daemons update will not be a huge overhaul to the current book. Expect few new units. But the new GD models are phenomenal, love every one of them, especially the new GUO. None of the new units are single system, everything is in both 40k and WFB now.

Hastings has reaffirmed his prediction of a February Daemons release:

Don't know quite why I'm getting misquoted across the interwebz I've been saying for MONTHS (not cryptically either) that DA would be up for preorder in Dec and Daemons release in Feb????

And additionally let us know about one of the releases:

Not blight drones but similar, I can see 40k players using the FW blight drones instead of the big nurgle flies ridden by plagubearers that are getting released.

Faeit 212 has posted that the Hardcover Daemons double system release is due February.

As some may have expected, the units recently updated/released in WD are rumoured to be changing slightly in the full Codex.

The source also followed up with a rather odd postscript of "No new god. No hybrid GDs. Expanded fluff on malice."

Take of that what you will.

Bell of Lost Souls has posted the following:

Voices in the Wind say:

Schedule
Look for dual 40K/WFB Chaos Daemons army book-codexes in Feb/March.
They should be in the March White Dwarf, and hit the street end of February

New Models (cut this list into two equal sized waves - one with the codex, one following up a quarter later).
- All four Greater Daemon plastic kits with named options
- Plastic Furies, dual-option kit with "Flesh Terrors"
- Plastic Khorne Chariot, herald, dual kit with a cannon, pulled by Bloodcrushers
- Plastic Tzeentch Chariot, herald, dual kit with "flame-beast" pulled by screamers, ( 40k: a Skimmer)
- Plastic Nurgle Palanquin, (chariot), carried by Nurglings, (combines with Nurgle GD kit for named character model - Ku'gath)
- Nurgle Plague-flies jetbikes/monsterous cavalry (40K-Elites, WFB-Rares)
- New Daemon-engine, bipedal with atypical porportions, uses ectoplasmic weaponry of CSMs, has numerous options for CC or Ranged loadout. (40K- Heavy, WFB-Special)
- New Daemon flying MC. (40K-Fast Attack-flyer, WFB-Rare)

Rules
- Daemon Princes with Wings will move slots in 40K.
- Look for across the board points increases in the codex/army book.

Games Workshop have posted a teaser video clearly showing Daemons for pre-order 23 February:

pizzaguardian at Dakkadakka has posted the following list of releases (I have removed the Fantasy items):

Codex: Chaos Daemons - 104 page full colour, hardback Codex (author still as yet unknown)

Plague Drones of Nurgle (plastic x3) - These are likely the giant fly mounted Plague Bearers hastings told us about.

Burning Chariot of Tzeentch/Herald of Tzeentch on Burning Chariot of Tzeentch (plastic x1) - Dual kit, likely in the same vein as the Seeker Chariot.

Blood Throne of Khorne/Skull Cannon of Khorne (plastic x1) - Dual kit, as mentioned by hastings

Herald of Nurgle (Finecast x1)

Herald of Khorne (Finecast x1)

Herald of Slaanesh (Finecast x1)

Psychic Powers: Chaos Daemons - Deck of 12 cards with Primaris powers + 3 Psychic powers for Tzeentch, Slaanesh, Nurgle

*I think it's safe to say any similarity with the list in the post above is purely coincidental


Kaelarr has assured us that the psychic powers aren't the same as the Chaos Space Marine ones, but that there is one crossover power per God.
