Here's some of my observations:

Malevolence

As far as I can see, TLG got the shape mostly right (As seen in this picture), albeit a bit too flat, as well as the gap at the front being too empty (It should have a 'city' similar to the Executor's), but the minifigs make up for it. Padme looks relatively accurate, though her arms look to be Light Flesh instead of the more accurate Tan (Picture of her outfit from the episode here). Anakin, Dooku, the regular BD, and Grievous seem to be just their previous versions. It's diffucult to see the details of the BD Commander, but from what I can see it's relatively accurate.

Republic Striker Starfighter

I can see the resemblance to the original material, but it doesn't seem very accurate to me. Perhaps a MOD to remove the studs would make it look better. Regardless, the minifigs make it a must purchase. On the subject of minifigs, there appears to be a fourth in the Striker Fighter, blacked-out (Or perhaps just black) on the box's minifig array. Also, there appears to be part of a black droid on the edge of the picture next to the astromech, so that might be the as-yet-unmentioned fourth figure.

Saesee Tiin's Starfighter

Much better than the previous versions as far as I'm concerned, the Dark Green astromech just makes it all the more necessary to puchase.

Malevolence - her arms are definitely tan. I'm still looking at the picture, and there's certainly a difference between the color of her hands and the color of her arms.

Republic Striker - I don't know where you're getting the idea of a fourth minifigure, or even blacked-out space for one. Look at the box; there are three figures, the Jedi girl, the droid, and the Republic Soldier guy. That's it. There's no more space there at all. Above the girl is just the Darth Maul artwork. Below the soldier is the bottom of the box. The black minifigure next to the droid is probably one of the figures in the Fury-Class Interceptor.

This one is not amused. The Malevolance and Striker Fighter both look like half-hearted MOCs. I may still get the Striker Fighter, depending on the price, but the Malevolance... I certainly hope that's just a bad angle.

Malevolence - I see the difference, but it is very slight. I seriously doubt that TLG would make the arms the wrong color, but since this is preliminary, it is possible.

Republic Stirker - I can't tell whether the part above the Jedi on the box is a minifig or the logo; it could be either, due to it being cut out of the picture. Though I really doubt a fourth figure would be in the set, it is possible. If that figure, as you said, is part of the Fury-Class, then the sets would have to be really, really close together, in which case I should think that we could be able to see the Fury-Class Fighter, or at least part of it, wouldn't we?

EDIT: I was wrong, the part on the top of the Striker box is the logo - still, I see the fourth figure next to the astromech and I think that it must be part of the set. :wacko:

The black 'Fig? That is a Sith Trooper, and is one of two in the Fury-Class Intercepter.

The RSS has only three Minifigs:

Satele Shan

Jace Malcom

Old Republic Astromech (name?)

The FCI also has three Minifigs:

Darth Malgus

Two Sith Troopers

I would agree, except the Sith Trooper is a regular minifig, while the figure I can see resembles an Assassin Droid more than anything else. Maybe it's a part of the set that isn't shown on the box or listed in the minifigure section,like the Droideka in the Naboo Starfighter? Perhaps it could be one of those Droideka-esque Sith droids seen in the trailers for TOR! :sweet:

I actually believe this is just a shadow - even a black fig would show some details, all that I can see is a black space which doesn't resemble a minifig at all except for a somewhat similar outline. I doubt that whoever took this picture would have simply ignored the Interceptor, which means it probably wasn't displayed at all.

Tiin's JSF was cropped in half in that pic.

Hm, it seems the pictures have already been taken down..

Has anyone seen them on another site, like Brickshelf?

EDIT: Ahem.

Thanks for the link. I love the amount of blue in the Malevolence, it'll be coming apart to build a Providence though. I want to see an image of the Fury-Class though.

Same here. I really want to see Revan, and the Sith Troopers.

Posted (edited)

It's not Revan; it's Malgus. :wink:

Damn it I always get those two mixed up! :angry:

I guess that since Mr. Man was talking about it, he had to be Revan, since that's the Sith that Mr. Man always talks about. :tongue:

EDIT: Or because they both suck so bad compared to Nihilus! :tongue:

Did anyone save the pictures? I'm dying to see the figures. Please :cry_sad:

I did, I'll get them onto my Flickr pronto.

Here's hoping TLG doesn't delete me. :cry_sad:

Thanks, but I actually thought there were minifig pictures. I don't get it, if they let people take pictures, why didn't anyone take photos focusing on the minifigs? (except the monster fighters one)

I think that they tried, but LEGO maybe has only allowed this type of picture from a distance.

I think that TLG probably doesn't that kind of detail being shown in a picture (Until Grogall comes along of course :tongue: )
