This creation is the hideout of some outlaws, where they hide their car and where they're building a powerful armor with the technology that they're stealing. I included a police car with two cops, a veteran officer and a rookie. It's on Lego Ideas, so if you like it, please give me some support https://ideas.lego.com/projects/b337e208-e3fd-4624-b413-6cf99611924d There is a technic system that allow you to open the roof and a lifter that gets the car out of the hideout. You can open the roof turning the wheel, and lift the car with the crank on the top. Here is a video showing how it works:

I wonder if this set is the closer we will be to have one of the Mercedes Benz ML from The Lost World. Not the same but it clearly took some elements of the Mercedes. That leaked shows exactly the same torso design from the JW video game. The minifig that was leaked in April had a different design from the game (and the head is different too), so I don't this that the new leak is 100% accurate.

The smallest artic sets had 1x1 trans. orange cones but they are not printed. EDIT: Ok, I found it. But it's trans blue :P Anyway, they already made a piece for the mosquito, I hope they included it in the D2C: https://brickset.com/parts/6117524/moonstone-no-1

Clearly Mad Max. Or at least something inspired by that (we just had it with The Lego Movie 2). Lego Interceptor V8 from Mad Max Fury Road by hachiroku24, en Flickr Doof Wagon from Fury Road by hachiroku24, en Flickr Lego Mad Max Fury Road Bigfoot by hachiroku24, en Flickr

This worries me. Activision-Blizzard made big budget cuts after the Diablo Immortal debacle, and you can even notice it the game. The Archives event this year has been really really dissapointing. Not only the PVE content was the shortest one, but they didn't even added new emotes for the event. I hope the Lego sets are selling well, because I want to have all characters. I think Overwatch is a very profitable IP, but Blizzard could have handled it better.

The car from the promo video is very very similar to lichtbleu's Trans-Am:

I really liked it when they showed it at the Celebration. I think it's a well-made character for animation (basic shapes, but very expressive), and I appreciate it a lot in this kind of characters. I wanted to make one in the style of the UCS R2D2 and BB8. I used a dark grey chain for the wheel, which is not exactly accurate, but I prefered playability over accuracy. It works very smooth.

I feel the same. Everytime I see a creature made with bricks (even when I build them) I can't stop thinking that it's an animal build with parts from a car or a robot. But it depends on the animals. I don't have any problems with animals like hermit crabs or tortoises. About the JP, I already have all JP dinosaurs, so having a brick-built T-Rex can be cool.

Ray Arnold! I can't believe we're getting him!

The red stripes seems to be printed tho.

They clearly are.Probably the cone is so big it doesn't affect to the sticker. Look at this pic from the Hothbricks article:

Cockpit pieces have stickers...

When is the Lego panel? PS:

It looks like that, but they never use stickers in curved platforms, right? Especially stickers of this size.

I think the picture of the box makes it looks disproportionate it, because the ship depends a lot on the angle you see it. For example, comparing the Lego version with this picture it looks really good and with good proportions:

The "neck" of the 2009 one was 6-8 studs wide, is this one the "neck" is 4-6 studs, despite of having a bigger cockpit piece. EDIT: I think the new cockpit makes it looks weird, but overall, the new one looks better

Why Friday? Are there any source? The Celebration starts tomorrow, and there is an AMA in r/lego with the creative director of all the Lego Star Wars too. I think it's weird to make the AMA right before announcing the set. If I had to bet, I'd put all my 100$ tiles it will be announced tomorrow.

Well, the Y-Wing appeared in a store at the end of March. They didn't have any reason to keep the secret. I'm surprised how are they managing the Tantive release. We didn't even get any description yet. 100% fake.

I'm really surprised with the number of pieces. It's the same as in the original UCS Tantive (22 more in the new one). Considering they use now a lot of more smaller bricks than before, probably it will be closer to the 2009 version, but that one was alreadu very detailed so who knows. I'm really really looking forward to see this model, it's probably my most expected set since always.

What the heck are these sets and why they look so awesome? They look like random scenes from the videogame. The Transformers/T-Rex/Ford Explorer is wonderful, and Nedry! EDIT: Who's the beard guy in the Baryonix set?

Max's Interceptor form Fury Road. My 5th take on this car. I really really glad how this one looks, specially the front. It's the Fury Road version (only the spoiler of the roof, one gas tank, rusty wheels and the grey right door).

Pure speculation, buy maybe they cancelled a new The Last Jedi set with this minifig and, then, they decided to use it in Resistance Bombers that they weren't expecting to sell (but already produced)?

Finally, I got the sets today. I built all of them except Bastion and Watchpoint. I'm surprised with D.Va. I really liked what I saw but it's even better, and Hana's minifig is the best one of this wave by far. My only doubt is: Why did they put this piece https://brickset.com/parts/292626/bearing-plate-1x4-double in the crotch? It limits a lot the movement and poseablility, and it doesn't seems to have any function. Reinhardt's torso and arms are really great, but the legs are totally off. It's sad because as I said, the top half is perfect, but I can't find a way or a pose to look at them in a good way. I'm not a big fan of Reaper so I wasn't looking forward to this minifig, but it's one of my favourites. The cape is great, the print is great but I specially liked the weapons (same for Soldier76). They may look too bulky but they really work for the style they created for Overwatch. I prefer this over fully molded weapons. About the builds, I'm kinda dissapointed with Hanamura. It's probably one of the most iconic maps/places of the game, so it's sad to see it reduced to a wall. El Dorado set is good, you can recreate an entire match in that point (I've seen and played a lot of victories/defeats in that arch). Oh, and Genji's chest is definetely metallic.

Yep, I've understood the print now. It's like a corset simulating the abdominals, ala Immortan Joe.

Is it me or the torso looks silver instead of yellow? Or is it an armour? PS: I like that there is a wrecked VW Bus in the area the surfer guy :D
