That would be amazing! Not sure what else could be considered first for a battlepack.

I'm personally hoping the build is the Beskar forge

Ooh! Why didn't I think of that.. Very nice!
Also, the possibility of chrome pieces for a minifig sounds intruiging as well

About the possibility of Fallen Order sets, how probable do you guys think a big figure Ninth Sister will be? Just curious...

If we get a Fallen Order set (that's a big if, but I certainly hope so), then the possibility is low. But if we get two or more (Battle Pack doesn't count) it is possible - like a set with her ship, Cal, 9th Sister and two Stormtroopers or Purge Troopers.

I don't think they'll give us the Ninth Sister unless they're doing at least 3-4 sets. But if they do make her they would have to make at least 3 new molds (body, lightsaber hilt and the saber itself), I'm not sure if they'll do that

9th's ship would be pretty cool to get, I'm not sure if I remember correctly but it's very similair to the TIE Reaper so that would be a day one buy!

It may actually be the TIE Reaper itself, or something extremely similar to one, just with small changes.

When asked if we’ll get the last two KOR, Falconfan said “summer”. So that’s great to hear. Also, he said we will 100% be getting more sets for The Mandalorian

Amazing news!

Couldn't agree more, haha.
I think Purge Trooper are the likeliest additions to an SWJ:FO set, aside from Cal & BD-1 of course. BD probably being a brick-built thingy, but still. 
I guess it all depends on how big the set will be. Personally, the Mantis isn't a must-have for me, but I can't think of anything else for a good build. And, generally speaking, the Mantis does makes sense a lot of course.
If the set is 'that' big, Second Sister is definitely probable as well. 

I think we'll see a small location playset set for one of the times you encounter second sister, with Cal, Second sister, and hopefully a purge trooper. Something big like the mantis seems a bit much given what lego's done for games in the past. BD-1's inclusion to me seems a bit unlikely to me, he's either got to be massivly overscaled or a new mold like D-0

Could the "amazing first" be dual-molded arms/legs? I don't recall that ever happening for Lego Star Wars outside a 1 or 2 rare examples. 

This actually could be it. We've had a few instances in sets before, but never in a battle pack. Edit: apparently this was debunked. Maybe arm printing then? @jdubbs statement about the capes has me worried we won't get jetpacks.

@CF Mitch ninth sister as a big figure seems unlikely to me. I don't think lego would make her at all, since too many new molds would be needed, and she's not too big of a character? (I haven't finished the game yet but it seems to me Kal, second sister, and the electrostaff purge trooper are the most likely options.

I’ve found a picture of the Mando BP but I can’t share it since it’s got a ‘confidential’ watermark  It includes 4 different Mandos, all equipped with stud shooters and capes, no jetpacks. The set features two builds, a dark tan speeder (very similar in style as the 2011 Mando BP speeder) and a bit of terrain with a spot to place a stud shooter.
The Mandos’ colour schemes are quite whacky: #1 is mainly light blue (aqua?), #2 is predominantly green, #3 has sand blue torso & legs plus a pearl silver and orange helmet and #4 has a brown/dark brown colour scheme with a bit of silver. Moreover, there are two types of visors: #1 and #4 have the T-shaped visor while the other two have the owl-shaped visor

I love that we’re getting some random Mandalorian warriors but I do really hope we eventually get the Smith and the heavy blue Mando

Someone on this thread said the BP will be based on the shootout. Since Heavy plays a significant role in that fight AND in the forge, his absence would be a heavy disappointment. The smith on the other hand doesn't participate in the shootout, but the forge deserves its own set. Time will tell.

In that case maybe the “first” Falconfan was talking about was having females in a PB? No offense to anyone but I couldn’t care less about political representation. As far as lego is concerned, all that matters to me is character representation, as in making sure the we can collect as many characters and variants as possible, all across the spectrum. I do love the Night Owl style female Mandalorian helmets though so that aspect of the set is pretty nice that we get some of each

True, am not sure having a generic female Mando trooper is that amazing to be honest, but if the torso would be cuved, as in arealight, then that might be something special. Though I'm sure the response among lego fans would be pretty devided.

We've had females in Battle Packs before (Jedi/Clones last year), and a female Mandalorian before as well (Sabine).

If this is true, than a little disapointing no jetpacks or heavy, but still an amazing BP

as @jdubbs mentiones it's not new or females in a BP. However, it could be having 4 different characters with no repeats, is that a first?

No. Rogue One rebel battle pack had four unique figs, based on actual named characters in the film. 

I think maybe too much has been made of FalconFan’s comment.

thanks, forgot about them. at this point the only thing I can think of is that they all have capes, but that's hardly "amazing"

I originally forgot about the 4 characters in the rogue one battle pack. And thought the mandalorian pack was the first one that included 4 exclusive figures. Blame that on me not being a committed Lego Star Wars fan. But I still stand as it being amazing

I haven’t seen the images but I’m already sold. I love the attention lego is giving this series. Hopefully we’ll get other mainer characters later next year but having four random Mandalorians in such a cheap set is something I could never complain about. I’ll have to get at least two. (I also really want Bo Katan to make an appearance so we can get a minifig of her, but I digress). I love the Night Owl helmets and I love the classic style so this is going to be amazing

It’s hard to tell from these descriptions but do any of the Mandos look like the main character, Heavy or Smith from the show?

#4 sounds like it could be the main character.

I'm personally hoping the build is the Beskar forge with the figures being the Mandolorian in full Beskar, the Heavy Mandolorian, the Armorer, and another random Mandolorian. 

I'm very glad to hear we'll be getting more Mandolorian sets. The Razor Crest is a must. It's also nice to hear we will be getting more RoS sets as I fully expect to get the last 2 Knights of Ren. I'm still really bummed we haven't even gotten 1 set based on Fallen Order. Hopefully that changes.

The “amazing first” is four exclusive minifigs, which actually isn’t really a first  The side builds are a speeder and a bit of terrain, as described above

If they decide to make sets based on Clone Wars Season 7 Bo Katan is pretty much guaranteed to appear in at least one set
