For Hutt' Sake, Mrs Rental wants her CR90!
Epic Scum Speculation
Minstrel is probably the most iconic (and ties in with the already released Hwk-290) followed up by the Action VI. I wouldn't say no to conversion kits for the CR-90, GR-75, and Goze either...
The Action VI however, is canon...
I wouldn't call the Star Jewel iconic, I had to dig deep to remember that single level in Dark Forces.
.
I'm not saying you're wrong, but I was under the impression that the Dustbuster was Legends - not canon - when and how was it canonised ?

It is in Attack of the Clones. Theed Spaceport

I certainly see a resemblance to the Action IV transport, but it looks different to me. The front seems shorter but it should be the same height as the back. I don't see a pole that connects the front to back. I can see what appears to be a pole coming out of the back and one coming out of the front, but they don't seem to meet. The reflection on the middle of the port side seems to indicate there is a large platform on top that is receiving sunlight. If it were the Action IV transport, that part should be in shadows like the port aft section.
It looks to me like some visual artist took the Wild Karrde and put their own spin on it, making it something new. Maybe it's an Action III transport? I'm willing to change my opinion if someone has a different way of looking at it, but to me it looks as different from the Action IV as the T-70 does from the T-65.
It's an Action VI, like the Wild Karrde.

Good enough for me!
EDIT: Although, I still think it looks different from schematics and other renditions. But then, the Star Jewel also has many different appearances, so I guess it's just part of being a minor ship in the Star Wars galaxy.

Are things cannonised if a Star Wars ship appears in their series? I only ask because a Firefly class ship can be seen in the late BAttlestar Galactica series, as well as some SW ships.
I want a Firefly class freighter with a mounted flak-36 or a squad of Vipers.

Don't get it confused with the Action IV which has a slightly different shape. Both were in X-Wing Alliance for instance.

The Action series was also used as a Rebel troop transport in Star Wars: Rebellion.
I suspect, that any epic scum will be drawn from the new movies. There is a whole bunch of ships that have not been officially released as yet.
That horrendously awefull looking Action is just the kind of ship that your average planetary law enforcement officer would underestimate. Its the perfect ship to quietly upgrade with some military grade sensors and a couple turbo-laser batteries.
I want one. Now.
Plus Huge Ship Only illicit upgrades like a disguised weapons blister. The first time you perform an attack, add 2 hit results to your dice roll. Then discard this card.

Yousa makin' mesa muy muy sad.

While, of course no solid evidence exists I disagree with this as the new movie has 0 evidence of any scum involvement whatsoever.
I do however hope to be proven wrong.

Maz Kanata - pirate for several hundred years
Kanjikub gang - may just be on Jakku
Guavian Death Gang - has assault troops, why not assault ships.
Now, this IS all conjecture, but every Star Wars movie has a scum connection - remember Han Solo and Boba Fett?
So far the two most popular ones are Star Jewel which is Jabba's starship yacht (Not to be confused with his sail barge) and the Wilde Karde.
One thing for certain is that it will likely have 2 scum epic ship. One transport size with only 1 ship card and one corvette size with 2 section cards.
The only question is when so far it looks like over a year out. Until then well there is this kit I made for the GR-75 transport in Epic scum squadrons.

Wouldn't say no to the also iconic BFF-1 bulk freighter, courtesy of the X-wing/TIE Fighter series.
That would be rad.
How about some other Freighter types?
True-scale YV-666 "REAL" freighter wityh Hull value over Tantive two cards combined?
YV-666 is truely done right in Armada. It has survivability of a NEBULON, if not higher
I'm calling it right now: range 4 missiles or torpedoes, huge ship only
I'd also love those in standart. Ship comes with a huge ruler, thats all that matters. Would make torpedoboats really special.
I will advocate for the Star Jewel. Have never seen it befor the first "Which scum huge?" thread, but it just is such a good design for what it is supposed to be. Anyone who has seen episode 6 is going to recognize this as Jabbas ship. It is quite beautiful. Wouldn't mind that becoming canon again!

Cool - thanks
Still not a massive fan of the Dustbuster and I think the Star Jewel is streets ahead in terms of aesthetics, and iconic characters - plus by virtue of the fact that the SJ had a docking bay loaded with Zs, it could incorporate the docking / deploying mechanism that looks like is set to be a Thing in Epic.
That said - the Dustbuster is streets ahead of the 2 Bricks and a Barrel ship

That Clothes Iron? We don't need another ship carrying half a squad, there's the Gozanti.
At least the Wild Karrde has a smuggling crew, as opposed to a fat slug and his cronies. . It also carries a starfighter.
And with a little nudging you can change the Action IV Big Score to an Action VI Big Score to bring in more of the Azzameens. .
Then a conversion kit for the GR-75 to add even more Azzameen joy with the Vasudra. Pilots, crew, droids, the works!
The dustbuster is prettier than my 2 bricks and a barrel, and also the two bricks and a seed tray (BFF2).
Also space dongs.

Clothes Iron - I like it ...... **goes to look for more ships that resemble household appliances**
