So episode seven ships or lack there of.

IMO, FFG should release a new Falcon with Scum Pilots, a Rey pilot/crew, and Fin crew, and the new dish. They should also sell these cards separately for those that don't want/need another $30 T-1300.

Fin isn't a pilot he's crew at best.

Yeah not much pilot material in TFA. (Poe is hogging it all!) I don't see Emo Ren, sorry: Kylo Ren pilot a TIE.

Will we get a new card for Old Han?

A use then discard card...

(Too soon?)

A gunner card?

What is his bonus effect?

I'd be disappointed if we didn't get a new Falcon with at least an Old Han pilot, a Rey pilot, and a Finn crew card.

There seems to be enough demand for a "Heroes of the Resistance" 2 ship pack with alt paint/sculpt box. TFA Falcon and Black One in a dual pack; Pilot cards for Rey in YT-1300, Jess Pava, Temin Wrexley and Nien Nunb (& maybe Iolo Arana & Kare Kun) in T-70s.

Alternatively, it could be packaged as a "Legend of the Milenium Falcon" 1 ship pack resculpted to the new look. Along with the TFA crew, the Falcon has had a lot of crew/ pilots over the years in canon & legends (both rebel and scum): Blount, Craken, Ace Azzermeen, MK-09, Unkar Plutt, Vuffi Raa, Droma, etc

For what it's worth, we still need an Obi-Wan "Ben" Kenobi crew card. That would basically be mandatory in any Falcon rerelease.

But it's all ways been referred to as a piece of junk when first seen by anyone, then it flies and shows ugly is skin deep.

But it's not changed much in 30 years and isn't worth releasing again.

The shuttle's never fight so I don't expect much from them.

The cog is the only ship left that fought in the movie but you can't release it if there's no rebel and scum ship.

from FFG's perspective it is TOTALLY worth a rerelease of the Falcon. New model, new pilots and cards, possibly with a S&V component to it, all repackaged for $35-40, bought eagerly by fans worldwide.

Explain again how that's not worth it?

Angering your player base just to make money, look at the negative reaction to them limiting online sales, forcing you to buy the new core etc etc.

You make a scum falcon you anger rebel players, you make a new rebel falcon you anger everyone that already bought one or two, you can't make it better than the old one so it'll be worse which angers people.

Basically there's no way to win so best option is release rey in rebel veterans pack.

Seems like a misguided and almost naive attitude towards business, which is what FFG are. I'd even be willing to make you a bet - if I'm right, you can buy me the repainted Falcon, I will do the same if you are proven right?

the sooner we forget that god awful bit of game design, the better

falcon aces as in rebel aces

which is what this would be: same ship, different paint; different pilots

What is this special forces tie everyone keeps talking about?

Where was it in the movie,and how are we so certain iy will be released?

why do you dislike it so much? I like the different paint jobs and fixes that come with - what do you dislike about it?

He's referring to the shitheap that was fat PWTs, and is suggesting that it would be absolutely horrible if FFG were to encourage that sort of behavior again for, at least, what im calling "The Fix for what's not broken."

It was literally at the beginning.

Literally? Expound,please, if I haven't trampled upon your tender sensibilities with my question.

Finn and Poe fly out of the SD in one and crash it on Jakku.

I could see a dual faction release. You could make a Falcon that had Resistance and Scum cardboard. Maybe tweak stats and cost to reflect new mods (or poor maintenance). New Resistance Han, Chewie, Rey pilot, and all those guys who stole it as Scum. Maybe unmodded Scum generic 1300 pilot.

Well the the TIE/sf looks wayyyyy too much like the TIE/fo especially at 1/270 scale. However I do hope they manage to mod their existing model somehow to acommadate the change. The scum ships from SW Galaxies are basically looking at the same problem - if it can be done for the TIE/sf it can be done for other ships.

But it has a red stripe and a turret! Come on, it's a world apart ;)

The turret is the easiest thing to do - if they can do the panel cogs as well, it means they can make a new cone and cockpit for a Scyk & Kihraxz and make the Dunelizard & Vaksai. I'd really like to have a Dunelizard.

I love that people are saying it doesn't warrant a new model, DESPERATELY trying to make it NOT happen...

...But the TIE/FO got its own model too.

No it's just frustrating- the sheer lack of observational skills.

Red stripe, turret underslung, two people in one TIE, fatter engines, power cells on the inner side of the wings, so on and so forth.

It's the one Poe and Finn escape on, and how that could ever be missed is just beyond me.
