Totally, perhaps we will have a Plethora of x-wings ? I'd like to see something they haven't done in a few years at least. Perhaps an extension to the cantina? With the death star, vaders tie, y-wing, landspeeder, T-16, all being done recently I don't know what is left from 4 to do... Quote

Nope, we'll get a new Phantom next year, not a new Ghost The Ghost is the main ship the protagonists use while the Phantom is the small shuttle that attaches to the back of the ship. The original Phantom set was released alongside the Ghost in 2014 and next year we'll get the new Phantom that was introduced in the latest episode (after Ezra destroyed the old Phantom in the season opening) Since there's (luckily) no updated Ghost in sight, I'd recommend purchasing the 2014 version. Besides, it's currently the only way to get season 1&2 Zeb, even if there was a new Zeb minifig on the horizon it'd be based on his appearance in season 3 Quote
bountybossk Posted October 24, 2016 Posted October 24, 2016 There's an image of the 2017 Y-wing pilot on Reddit/eBay. Not sure if I can post the link to eBay. The pilot wears a brand new helmet (double-molded). Quote

Maybe my opinion will change after seeing other angles and/or seeing the helmet it's based off of. Quote

ChiefPie Posted October 24, 2016 Posted October 24, 2016 I like the suit but that helmet is ok. I would have preferred a classic helmet. The helmet kinda has some ep VII design to it. Quote
BrickBob Studpants Posted October 24, 2016 Posted October 24, 2016 That's a great looking helmet, too bad they didn't update the old X-Wing pilot helmet mould as well instead of still using printed visors for most of the Rebel pilots Maybe they'll do that some time in the near future, but they should've done it this year since a lot of sets would've benefited from that (the Hoth Base and U-Wing sets in particular). It also creates inconsistencies between figures within the same subtheme (RO for instance). Quote

I think that Lego will definitely update the X-Wing helmet to include a dual-molded visor in the next System iteration of the T-65 X-Wing. Love the new Y-Wing helmet! It only makes the set more desirable for me. Quote

I'm dreading the day the OT x-wing helmet gets updated - that'll be a whole squadron that will need replacing! Biggs, Wedge, Theron - so many to replace! Quote
ProvenceTristram Posted October 24, 2016 Posted October 24, 2016 All our X-wing pilots are suddenly obsolete. Quote
Forresto Posted October 24, 2016 Posted October 24, 2016 Extraordinary molded helmet but i'm not digging that black band above the visor, a bit of an eyesore. I'm sure it's accurate to the film design though so I commend Lego's designer on an excellent job. Quote
Mymaker123 Posted October 24, 2016 Posted October 24, 2016 I have no real opinion on that pilot as I haven't seen the movie equivalent; it does look pretty sweet, but I have nothing to compare it to so it's indifferent as of right now Quote

Deathstroke77 Posted October 24, 2016 Posted October 24, 2016 Pilot: Meh, not on my wishlist. Moroff: Again, meh. Can't say this is a fig I'm exactly excited for. Where's Thrawn?! Quote
Darth Malgus Posted October 24, 2016 Posted October 24, 2016 I quite like those two minifigs. Morrof looks cool if it is legit. Quote
ChiefPie Posted October 24, 2016 Posted October 24, 2016 That is the same moroff picture we saw a couple weeks ago so it is official. Quote
1980-Something-Space-Guy Posted October 24, 2016 Posted October 24, 2016 I finally know what people were referring to when they said "white Chewbacca". Quote

Brickweiser Posted October 25, 2016 Posted October 25, 2016 (edited) Why does it look like the pilot has an SNES or old fashioned home console strapped to his chest? Edited October 25, 2016 by Brickweiser Quote
Amazing Bricks Posted October 25, 2016 Posted October 25, 2016 Got a screenshot of the desert skiff set, it only shows Boba Fett and he isn't new :( that was expected though. Also, weequay looks better, but I only got screenshots both of them. Quote

I'm curious whether its an update of the Skiff Guard we got in the Sailbarge or an all new Skiff Master. Quote

It could just be the same one from the sail barge, I'll compare them side by side. Edited October 25, 2016 by amazingbricks Quote
