Jedi star fighter hint in most wanted???

By bageldrone, in X-Wing

The card with "R4 A......." Looks to me like a Jedi star fighter cockpit (Delta 7)

Also the wookieepedia article on the R4 series talks about R4s being used in Jedi starfighters

Thoughts?

Displaying the image would help.

Hard to guess. I think its a Scyk.

Ya, it's pretty hard to guess at all, we can barely se the image.

I see where you're coming from on the Delta-7 being in the picture, but I don't think Delta-7 is high on FFG's list of stuff they can do.

Christian reiterated X-Wing is rebellion era and later during the Inflight report. I don't think we are going to see a Jedi star fighter any time soon. Maybe if JJ adds it to 7, it may eventually work it's way into the game.

Here's a link to a close up of the card

I think of all the prequel ships the Jedi star fighter is the most likely to be released due to it being the most recognisable

If you look at the top right of the card you can see the white strake on the back of the cockpit.

Looks like a landspeeder to me.

Since these are meant to be salvaged astromechs, it could well be a Jedi fighter in the picture, to show that that's where it was salvaged from, and the fact that its an R4 mech which were Jedi favourites of could be on that card.

Just being on a card doesn't mean its going to be released though.

Yea definitely, It was just that in wave IV outmanoeuvre had a yt2400, wave V had intimidate with a scyk in it now wave VI has a Jedi starfighter..... Probably just a mad man's conspiracy theory after reading ffg forums and articles for a week straight :)

I'm not seeing a jedi fighter but the image quality is pretty low.

So glad for that!

I see a naboo starfighter. Obvious hint.

Btw I'm not a prequel preacher, I was just pointing it out as something interesting, not another WE NEED PREQUEL SHIPS topic sorry if it came off that way

It didn't its just not enough of the picture to tell.

If it is a Jedi star-fighter, the angle would mean no Asromech is visible on the card wouldn't it?

I'm sure this is a Salvages Astromech upgrade, so would need one in the picture?

Now we just need to wait a month or so to find out more on S&V :)

Why isn't it an R4 Astromech?

Why isn't it an R4 Astromech?

And ffg seem to have a recurring theme (at least in the last 3 releases) of including a pic of a ship from the next wave

Huh? Never said it wasn't, I'm saying that R4s were used in Jedi starfighters and the picture on the card looks like a Jedi starfighter's cockpit

Oh, I see. Well, I think that's a bit of a jump then, friend, from a partial blurry image. If it's true that FFG just reiterated at GenCon that they won't be releasing prequel ships, does that include a Jedi fighter?

Definitely plausible

I think you've misread what i'm saying.

I'm trying to say that you would think there would be a picture of the droid on the card, but from that angle (if it is a jedi fighter) you wouldn't be able to see the droid as they are on the port side wing in front of the cockpit. The similar design V-wing however has the droidbehind the cockpit, so more likely it's a V-wing.

I agree the angle doesn't quite look right but I don't think it's a v, the fin on the back looks exactly like a Jedi star fighter, maybe the astro is standing next to it?

Did they outright say that?

I Know lots of people were reading between the lines before with statements such as "we are concentrating on the galactic civil war" but never saw them outright say it would never happen

Hexis, do you have a PowerPoint slide pic or video or some other concrete evidence of Christian saying this so we can put the prequel ship debate to rest for good? (And refer back to it every time it's resurrected?) Thanks in advance!

:(

I was just commenting on how the pic looks like a Jedi fighter and there is a precedence for them to release ships the next wave from pics in the previous, there might be a Jedi starfighter in rebels for all we know or in episode VII

It's an F-14 Tomcat. NEW FACTION!!!

Can't wait to see the Maverick and Goose pilot cards.

Ugh I've stirred up a hornets nest here haven't I :(

I still think it's a landspeeder.
