This theory is going solely off of the description of that teaser footage shown at the launch event, primarily the descriptions of the heartless concept arts.
"One enemy looked like a souped up Blue Rhapsody Heartless with flames around it. Another enemy looked like the Soldier Heartless type with angel wings. A new enemy, a large Heartless with a bull-horned helmet, looked like a knight. There was also a tiny Archer heartless holding a bow with a quiver on his back. Some of these were sketches, but others like the Knight Heartless were 3D models."
These description have created very vivid images in my head of what these heartless could look like, but what has really caught my attention is those first two descriptions.
Let's start with the Blue Rhapsody.
It's described as a beefy Blue Rhapsody heartless with flames around it. Now, if you know what a Blue Rhapsody is, it's this little guy
The magic he casts is and has always been Blizzard. He is the ice guy among the colored little tea pot things. So why is he coated in flames in the reported concept art? It seems strange the ice element heartless would have anything to do with fire.
Now addressing the Solider heartless description. It's described as a Soldier heartless with angel wings. This is absolutely bizarre.
If they wanted to have a flying heartless that resembles the soldier type, why wouldn't they just bring back the Air Soldier? Angel wings are so out of left field for that.
There are a couple heartless with angel like wings, namely Angel Stars
Now based off these anomalies, I have this thought in my head that I can't shake.
I think that someone in KH3 will be manipulating the heartless, going so far as to make hybrids of different heartless types. Making for perhaps interesting combinations of enemies in KH3.
Another thing interesting of note in regards to the above heartless is that all those involved are Emblem heartless, no purebloods. Emblem heartless are already manmade to begin with.
So to sum up, based off the descriptions it sounds like someone in KH3 has taken the liberty of creating new breeds of heartless by combining existing emblem heartless. Blue Rhapsody + Red Nocturne = bizarre flame Blue Rhapsody. Soldier + Angel Star = Weird angel winged Soldier.
I think it sounds like a really interesting idea, and I'd be really curious to see how that played out if I'm right.
