By yagyu, in X-Wing

Not sure if anyone else here has given any thought to this or realized but we will likely be getting some ships from the new rebels show, like the Ghost,and the Phantom, lego sets shown here

While im sure the the next wave or two are going to cover more EU stuff these ships are pretty much now cannon original trilogy era ships. I know rebels takes place a little before ANH but I think its close enough for them to open it, and I think this might also be a good way for Lucasfilm to get more hype for the show.
Im always up for more ships even if they dont look the best, gives the game more meat. Anyway what do you guys think?

I personally would like to see them. I'm a huge fan of any "Not Millenium Falcon" ship. :)

I like The Ghost design alot and think that the rebels should have another medium based ship.... a good question is how should the

"not Millenium Falcon" be difference than "Falcon".

We dont know how this ship is armored, but i read somewhere that the inspiration comes from old WW2 bombers...like Memphis Bell, which is also the inspiration for the Falcon.

..... I would love a Medium ship with firing arches on the side like old battleship.... like The Black Pearl. But I don't think the Ghost is it.

Personally I would rather see a "Shadows of the Empire" Wave with the Rebels getting the outrider, made different from the falcon some how, and give the show some time to develop so to best represent them if they do add them. You know instead of add them and then they somehow don't feel true to their animated counterpart because they were rushed. Though with FFG I doubt they would rush it regardless.

I agree that a Shadows of the Empire release would be better first. And with SotE, you could add Black Sun faction. The Outrider for tthe Rebels and the Virago for the Empire/Black Sun.

Also since the Virago had a cloaking device, at least I think I remember reading that it did, it would make more sense after releasing the Tie Phantoms. Plus as is it would give Rebels the exclusivity of Turrets while the Imperials get the ability to Cloak.
