But I'm not so happy, because if GW will release them, it could mean that the new Zoats and Fimir could have a new ridiculous look like all the new stuff produced by GW (Boars, Minoataurs, Trolls, Tomb Kings...) and (obviously) I'm sure they will be too pricey.

My fears exactly, although it seems more likely they will just re-cast the old Zoats and Fimir in FineCast and tell us they are better detailed (which of course they can't be) and you'll be paying around £15 per model

Recasting old miniatures in FineCast is of course typical GW laziness - they can appear to be releasing loads of new models each month when in fact they aren't doing anything new. Of course your average GW fanboy morons will buy them because WD told them to

As for Squats returning - well that's more a topic for the 40k section but I will say this here ...
it seems likely that sooner or later some Squat models will appear/re-appear from Citadel or ForgeWorld if only as a half-arsed response to the fact Mantic will be doing their own range of Space Dwarfs for Warpath - we've seen a few old (and supposedly forgotten) things re-emerge in the GW ranges recently, it seems they are trying to get back the attention of us veteran gamers, but they will of course never do what we really want them to - which is lower their goddamn prices and improve their quality ... and also support games like GorkaMorkA and WHQ
