Okay, here's everyone who has been suggested since this kerfluffle started:

• Orson Krennic - Not peaceful
• Dedra Merrow - Not peaceful, not tied to vehicle or object
• White Boba Fett - Main character, doesn't have hair, already exists
• Rose Tico - Not peaceful, already exists
• Mon Mothma - Not peaceful, already exists
• Bail Organa - Not Peaceful, already exists
• Owen Lars - No object, not controversial, already exists
• Kino Loy - Not peaceful
• Sleezenbagano - Doesn't wear white, not controversial
• George Lucas - Not really a Star Wars "character"? Already exists.
• Galen Erso - Not peaceful, incorrect guess
• Jocasta Nu - Incorrect guess
• Skad/The MODS - Don't wear white, not peaceful
• Young Leia - Main character, can't drive
• Dryden Vos - Not peaceful
• Corde - Not peaceful, not controversial
• Queen Organa - No object or vehicle, not controversial
• Tion Medon - Not human, no hair
• Dorme - Doesn't wear white
• Lyra Erso - Not Peaceful
• Omera - Doesn't wear white, not peaceful
• Sio Bibble - No white in outfit, not tied to vehicle or object
• Maarva Andor - Not peaceful, not controversial
• Ric Olie - No white in outfit
• Willrow Hood - No white in outfit
• Baron Papanoida - Not Human

I'm out of ideas...

Skad has a white shirt.

How would he even come close to beating Jango in a fight and who even wants him as a figure.

I wasn’t aware of the coming close to beating Jango thing when I wrote this. Which is hard to square away from the whole peaceful thing, unless they’re a force user. 

[Classic_Spaceman]

"Packing" and "could defeat Jango" basically confirms this to be a Force-user; most likely a Jedi, though not Jocasta Nu.

Which Jedi is in live action wears white and has not been made before?

Definitely not anything from animation or the EU. 

Depends on the context. Morai has appeared in Live Action (as has the father, as a statue). If they've only appeared in LA, or first appeared in LA, etc., then, yeah, Mortis characters would be out. These would also be potential concerns:

 Tied to an object or vehicle - Dagger? Bird? Ahsoka? WBW/Mural?
 Could shoot - ???
 Could drive Honda civic - No clue what this means. Too bad Valorum didn't wear white otherwise civic could mean politics.
 Lived a peaceful life - I mean, up until...

What is the background of the clones v droids battle pack? Is it supposed to be depicting the battle of coruscant?

Many Jedi wear white in some capacity (Mace Windu has white pants, for example); the key is finding a Human Jedi who lived peacefully (I.E. did not appear in any battles or during Order 66).

I assume that it just means that the character would be able to drive a car.

And I’m at a loss for whatever “strange look on the street means”. 

I's Hoar the tusken raider from the one fighting game. You'd definitely get strange looks if you asked about that due to how it's pronounced

Do ya think it could be Willrow Hood if you count the ice cream machine as part of the costume

YES

Well, I think he has a white band on his arm, so I'm gonna plead my case:

Look, it's a long shot, and there are a couple things that don't make sense, but I'd bet on WH above anyone else so far. 

I 100% support this, Wilrow hood was SNUBBED from the bespin MBS and deserves a fig.

So the new "battle pack" leaked. 
In my personal opinion it's horrible. Barc speeder is innacurate and just looks horrible which wouldn't be a problem in a $15-$20 battle pack, but we are paying $30 for it. 
Tri-Droid also looks really bad, like a child made it out of spare parts. 
STAP looks decent.
How many years droid army builders waited for a battle pack just to have to pay $30 and get clones they don't want with it and one little decent build with nothing special like a tactical droid, magna guard or even a security guard?
Clone figures are decent, but there is no leadership like an officer or a sergeant so not good for army building and you are also paying $10 extra to get only 4 figures you need and no useful builds.
Bottom 5 battle packs ever made imo.

*In Norman Osborn voice* You're insane. 

But actually, while obviously a lot of this is personal opinion, there are some straight-up incorrect things.

Mainly... of course it's not accurate to what the BARC looks like, it's not supposed to be a BARC, which I feel is super obvious? It has the front of a 74-Z, seats two, and has a rear turret. It's literally not meant to look like a BARC. It's a reference to the speeder from the 2007 battle pack. (As for paying $30 for it... yeah, sure, but it's taking up LESS parts than if it was the main build of a $20 battle pack. It's not really a big part of the set)

Tri-Droid is obviously subjective, but that's certainly an interesting take.

There are maybe 4 people alive who want to army build the confederacy but not clones. If you're having trouble army-building B1s, I don't even know what to tell you.

The lack of leadership figures like a tactical droid, magnaguard, or clone leader is good for army building? Generally there are a large number of leaders and a much smaller number of officers. You don't want a quarter of your army to be clone officers or tactical droids....

That’s pretty much no one. Pretty much everyone in Episode 2 & 3 participates in a battle of some sort, and the only human Jedi in TPM are Qui-Gon, Obi-Wan, Mace, Anakin, Quinlan Vos, and Depa Billaba.

Main character, someone who we would expect to get, not peaceful, etc, etc - No.

Exactly,probably "civic" implies civics

This is where I think falconfan might just be messing with us a bit- this is likely a reference to a set of memes in which Yoda drives a honda civic and is addicted to Ketamine.

There are a few others, but they participate in the battles. 
Maybe J. K. Burtola? He was the youngling who suggested that Kamino was erased from the Jedi Archives, and his helmet has white on it. I am not sure how he would defeat Jango, though. 🫤
Also, he probably cannot drive.

But you could definitely argue any Jedi is peaceful by nature. But there’s very few prominent live action human Jedi we’ve never gotten in Lego. The only notable ones would probably be Depa Billaba & Jocasta Nu. After that you get into Cin Drallig, Bultar Swan, or Liam territory. Who are just way too obscure to be special characters.

I am not sure of the format, but if these answers came from a livestream, they could be responses to chat questions. That would explain the oddness and memes of some of the hints.

Cin Drallig would be cool to get, though.

The issue is that a Jedi is really the only way to square the "packing", "can defeat Jango" hints with "peaceful" and "lived a peaceful life". 🫤

I think I give up lol. Some of this information has to be wrong or exaggerated, because no character fits every descriptor. I’ll be very interested in seeing who it ends up being and which of the hints might have been misleading. 

Or maybe I’m wrong and there’s someone I haven’t thought of who fits everything we know perfectly. I sincerely doubt it though. 

Funnily enough, Jedi Bob does fit most of these, but he doesn’t exist in the larger Star Wars community, so it can’t be him.

I respect your opinion but I feel like maybe you had too much hope. Battle packs builds are never lore accurate, and this was always sounding like a homage to the first two battle packs. Tbf we are getting a BARC speeder this year aren’t we in the Grogu escape? Clones are popular but I do think that the lack of leadership issue you could probably get around like last years 501st pack were the officer is literally normal trooper with an attachment in the helmet. Maybe also those officers and specialist should be making more appearances in mid range sets. Also for those who have the gunship can get a couplE more shock troopers to bulk it out and it’s the first time we’ve had a plain clone trooper in a set since the micro fighter. I wouldn’t really swap either of those figures for an officer or leader figure 
 

I do agree the CIS do need more specialist sets which focuses on the magma guards, tactical droids , droidekas basically anything that ain’t a B1. I think we’ll get the B2s in a few sets over the next few years to make the most of the mold they would’ve made for production.

It was a bit of a random question from one of the guys hosting the stream (was it ACOB, I forget which) but I think they also said he definitely could beat Bail organa, I'll send the link to the stream since my memory of it fades away

Posting video links is allowed right?

Have fun guys

Honda Civic question was "if they drove a car, what car would it be" so it's like a question on personality/temperament I guess?

These are all great points but I want hijack your post to reiterate-

GUYS, it is not supposed to be a barc speeder. It is based off the 2007 speeder bike. It shares no design features in common with the barc speeder other than being a speeder bike. Structurally it is more similar to a 74-z or the one from the 2016 rebel battlefront pack.

[PsychoBuilder]

Unless I missed something in the vid, FF said that the character would potentially beat Jango, and would probably beat Bail Organa.

Yeah no I got that I didn’t mean to say it was just that we’ve got one coming this year and also that speeder is kind of like the one from the first battle pack 

[MKJoshA]

@Minishark2000 Yes, posting video links is allowed as long as it's not to a leaked photo/video. Just please don't quote videos or photos. That starts to eat up space on the server real fast if everyone quotes the media post.

For everyone else... Karabast! I was going to come in here and say enough was enough with the guesses. But now you've got me guessing! So let me settle the debate. It's C-3PO's head on a battle droid body. He has O in his name. Literally. He led a mostly peaceful life. He has white wiring. With that droid body he could beat Jango. It all fits.

But seriously, we've had 4 pages of guessing. Unless you've ready all 4 of those previous pages and have a new guess, not already posted, then don't post more guesses! It's too much to wade through when people keep guessing the same names over and over again.

[Clone OPatra]

Where did any talk about the newly revealed sets go?

That fuzzy character in the 4+ set is giving me hibbyjibbies but dang if I don't want the new hairpiece on the other one.

I'm a little disappointed in the battle pack to be honest. That Super Battle droid was never a good mould, and to see it back after such a long hiatus completely unchanged is sad. Star Wars really seems like it tries to do the bare minimum in some cases, and then over-deliver with new moulds in stuff like 4+ sets. It's great to get all the shinies and the Shock on the Clone side though, and in general great to have a way to mass generic CIS at the same time, so I do think it's a good set, but I'm still personally a wee bit disappointed.
