I heard somewhere that Apricot, Umber and Nero will be making their appearances (hopefully speaking ones) in episode 4. That will probably be the rally that Ozpin mentioned, maybe with some tryouts or "weapon resumes" as Monty said. If So, I think we'll finally get an in-series look at the girls weapons, as well as see team JUAN's weapons for the first time too.

In speculation, I say that from the look of the characters, Nero seems very calm, maybe even the sarcastic kind, since that spot hasn't yet been PROPERLY filled. Apricot seems to be the overexcited bundle-of-joy kind (based on her beaming smile in the intro), while Umber is a mystery, although she's probably gonna be quite a nice, kind, caring character. Maybe even a romantic rival for Ruby. Think Asami Sato from Legend of Korra.

Juane has his sword and shield, Umber has a spear. My speculation is that Apricot will have something crazy and over the top, perhaps a mega hammer of some kind of a pair of knives she weilds with crazed speed and macabre laughter. Nero will probably have something to fit his cool demeanor. Probably something ranged, such as a gun. Maybe even a bow/crossbow for those extra unique points.
