By shotbyscott, in X-Wing

Looks like an H-60 Tempest Bomber, the B-wing predecessor. But these vertical stabilizers look intriguing.

unfinished B-wing that has been Abramised???

i found a link to where it was spoiled. Considering the look of the x-wings being reminiscent of concept art, the new b-wing (h-60) makes sense aa there was concept art that spawned the h-60.

Is that Leia and Ackbar in a B-wing-esque ship? You know, in the old EU that happened. Then some stuff happened.

Though, seeing the B-wing in Rebels, this new ship doesnt looke to have the awesome rotating cockpit.

What's up with the minifigs stepping on the radar dishes?! You kids need to get off my hats! I wonder if that's gonna be a trend for future sets.

All the leaked 2016 sets, from prequel to rebels, have the radar "stands".

While I like it, it looks bland. If it's real I would probably get it because I like "practical," but that is a really bland set.

As I see it, the blandness is mostly due to the fact that it's mostly grey, grey and grey, and because of the massive shape in the middle. However, there appear to be some hinges here and there, suggesting there might be lots of surprises inside.

That said I have to skip on the Lego Gozanti. The scale of it is too small, including the TIEs, and the internal is bare. If Lego managed to size it so some scaled down TIEs (thinking of Microfighters TIE Interceptor scaled up ~50%) could fit a mini inside I'd be all aboard.

there is a mon calamari and what might be mon mothma.

The top panel along the main body seems like it's attached to a hinge. If so, it may flip up to be a wing of some kind, which could make the ship look less stupid, or possibly more. There's definitely a hinge at the bottom (the little toothed joint), probably for dropping bombs.

Being reminiscent of the B-wing, I assume it would fly vertically, though the cockpit looks fixed and the top and bottom of the ship don't appear to be symmetrical. I'm not sure what they're going for here.

I have that problem with a lot of the lego ships. They just don't come off as cool as you'd expect. I'm often tempted to pick up a lego B-wing, but then I see all that grey...

I have an overabundence of grey and brown thanks to collecting Star Wars Lego since 99. Occasionally there's a set with brick red or yellow but mainly it's grey grey grey (or gray gray gray). At least TIEs change it up with some blue and black.

That is exactly what it looks like, yes.

Last year, there were rumors making the rounds of concept art for TFA. This looks like it could be for one of those pieces which was being called a "J-Wing" starfighter. The rumors had an astromech behind the cockpit area, but otherwise, this looks kind of similar to the description.

That's why you buy imperial ships like the defender.

Y'know...

When I was little, I used to get all of my spoilers for the prequel movies from the Lego website. Little kid me would look at the new sets and feel like a James Bond cameo for looking at this obviously unconsidered source of pertinent plot information. Then I found out spoilers were everywhere.

Now I can't even walk through Marshals without seeing a new version of Star Destroyer sitting in a merchandise display. I'm trying to not spoil the movie; I am, really. But It's like telling a heroine addict to ignore the trees with syringes growing on them.

What kind of ugly. ><

Ooohhh neato

Absolutely 100% uninspired, bland, and forgettable.

Here's hoping we never see it in X-Wing.

Wave 9 confirmed.

Is this it?
