I think I've lost track what point exactly we're discussing.

Well, considering the thread was resurrected after a year of dormancy (with significant changes in the facts in between), there really isn't a topic for the thread anymore, just people talking.

Hmm, ships are harder, Darth Vader's castle, Casian Andor's appearence and clothing looking a lot like Kyle Katarn... there's a lot more i dont remember. But if we're talking ships only, and only from live action films, I think you might be right.

At any rate, i dont feel the Victory has much chance of seeing the big screen. Though ill keep my fingers crossed for young han solo.

The hammerheads and ghost were pulled from rebels. I know nothing of the Legends eu but I'm guessing the hammerheads were part of it before being on rebels.

Yes, hammerheads are originally from EU from the Old Republic timeline dating back to Revan

Oh! Oh! - I know!

They're going to bring the Victory back into canon in the Han Solo movie.

They're going to make the case that Corellia lost the Imperial Navy shipbuilding contract after they built the Victory, in favor of the Imperial at Kuat. The adventure is going to be about that, and Han Solo being chased down by super-fast Corellian ships, which then turn out to be the VSDs.

After which we all lose our minds.

FFG will then bring out 'Corellian Cruiser' title cards in a new alt-art VSD expansion, increasing the VSD's speed profile to 4, with lots of double-clicks.

They were larger and more heavily armed in that period:

though I think one of the Starwars.com galleries for that episode (or Rebels Recon?) made it clear that the EU was where they got the basic design, even if they changed it a little.
