Not trolling.

Awesome! What's the ETA?

what's this from?

Some Con, apparently. Lemme see.

The caption was Photos from Desmond Blackstone's post in Central Cal Star Wars X-Wing Group.

California Con going on?

It's likely from the GAMA trade show.

Dammit FFG. I need some money for myself. How many of those A-wings do I need...

Obviously prototype A-wing, which is sweet. Can't tell if they did anything cool with the B-wing. Love to see one sideways - the picture on the box is, but it's sideways in basically ALL of their art on the cards and stuff, but not on the mini, :P
I think it would be cool if it was a sideways mod, though, in addition to whatever paint job it has. Need to see a better picture.

B looks like a blurry Dagger, that's just my guess

:angry: Not interested...... :D Kidding! It's great to get a teasing photo of something new on the horizon.

I was crossing my fingers for a A/Y pack for Rebel Aces but I am excited for this, mainly for the A-Wing. Can't wait to see what upgrades it receives. Hopefully a title that allows it the ability to take a systems upgrade. I'm sure we will see new system upgrades as well. I'll definitely be getting at least two of these. I'd also love a new cannon upgrade for the B-Wing.

Because the B-Wing needed to be buffed, right?

The A-Wing makes sense, though.

Totally hot. Surprised it wasn't an A and a Y though. But I'll take it.

I wonder how they are going to do titles? and what is it going to be? (like some people wanting to give 2 epts... ..., overpowered) (and I hope that the title won't be able to overlap several models, like it can be usable to b-wing, a-wing, x-wing, e-wing, etc...)

Hey FFG,

Cats out the bag, might as well give us the low down.

Thanks in advance.

SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY.

As a Rebel player and A-wing fanatic I am so HYPED. Cannot wait to see the A-wing pilots, also wishing it was a A/Y pack.

Well it depends - there are a lot of ways to add content. The A-wing could definitely use some love, I think. The B-wing on the other hand, could very well add some more stuff; new pilots, whatever, without giving it anything that would necessarily qualify as a buff.

Plus it makes a lot of sense - X-wing is getting love in the Transport pack. B-wing is hot right now, why not put out some more stuff for it, knowing that a ton of people are playing it and will be inclined to grab it?

I kinda wish they would have this for us on the same day they announce at the convention.

Is that selfish?

I have a feeling one of the B-Wing aces could be Keyan Farlander.

It's kind of a weird way to go about it. Some dude posted it up on Facebook and it started making the rounds.

I'm not a big fan of the A-wing, but i hope it gets a considerable buff. Also i think we will see the B-Wing come with AdvS and hopefully some cheaper named pilots!

i knew this would happen ;P lets wait another 2 years for it well 1 year for release then 1 year for shipping like imperial aces

I bought three B-Wings when they were first released and held off on buying a fourth once Imperial Aces was announced in case these sort of releases became a trend. Glad I did!

Come on, three almost consecutive rebel releases.... The transport, the CR90, and now this..... That's it... I'm officially jealous.

*sigh* Where is the 'order' button?

Just what we need . . . more reasons for people not to play the Imperials and more ways to make Rebels better.

Regardless I am excited for what this might bring to the table in terms of upgrades and stuff. In particular new System Upgrades for my Phantoms.

I think FFG has kind of gotten their crap together on this. First waves had supply issues. And Aces was bad, no doubt. But lately announcing wave 4 and cap ships has been pretty good. The event for end of May means that wave 4 should be out probably around july, and cap ships probably before then.

Maybe I'm wrong but I get the sense that FFG has gotten a handle on that problem.

+ 1 for 'surprised it's not A/Y'... although the astromech that comes with Porkins makes this less of an issue.

A mid-range A-wing with an elite pilot skill would be delightful.
