Still reckon it's going to be a Rogue One expansion with upgrades for X-Wing, Y-Wing (and hopefully E-Wing). Hoping it would include two T-65 minis - one in the Partisan Black and the second in the Blue Squad markings we've seen in the trailers.

please please please please!

Naaa it will be a palp fix.... palp will only need 1 crew slot and cost 3 point so you can pack him inot a TIE shuttle (bomber title)

Let's hope if it does include an X-wing fix, whatever it is, that it's a negative point cost title. Between the core set, Rebel Transport, and standalone expansion, I think it's fair to think that a healthy amount of players already have 4 copies of the most iconic Rebel ship. Would hate to buy another X-wing only to have to sell another (and yes, I KNOW that epic exists. But No reason to keep a ship I would use maybe once or twice a year).

Media coverage on the partisan X-wing is suspiciously very minimum. Even strikers got more coverage!

That'd imply it's either not important at all in the movie (that never stopped FFG) or the opposite, it's impossible to show it without spoilers. If the latter is true and if the SWX58 is (or contains) partisan X-wing, it'd make perfect sense for FFG not to show it before the movie or before the Dinsey marketing reveals it first.

I somehow managed to mis the partisan X-wing. Where in the trailers is it?

In the trailers there is only a single shot of a crashed one:

I want to say you are very mistaken because there are so many other images,

but he did ask only about its inclusion in the trailer...

Unbelievable, and all this time I thought someone who didn't know Rebel and Partisan are synonymous

was making this idea up and spamming the forum with it,

but apparently it's a real thing:

Although I personally would be more interested in getting Jabba the Hutt and Scum Epic, I see how FFG has go follow the Disney production machine, and so this may very well be our missing SWX58.

Partisans will probably be some local Jedha group I bet. Sort've like how Corellian Security had their own X-Wings.

Also, the thing is, if you read the book 'Catalyst' (being billed as the 'prequel to Rogue One') you'd know that Saw Gerrara is not associated with the Rebels at all. At least by that point, he's a straight-out independent mercenary. Hates the Empire, for sure, but he's just a merc that runs with other smugglers and the like.

So I'm feeling pretty sure that SWX58 is that X-Wing (although I'd really like to hope it's paired with a Scum Epic ship that is their base of operations - Scum really do need an Epic-scale ship ...)

And that "the Rebels get their X-Wings from mercenaries" or even "Jyn and Cassian meet up with mercenaries to get more teammates for their mission" seems like the kind of plot point that they'd want to keep under wraps.

Other random speculation: we know Disney is dropping cameos in like crazy - we see Mon Mothma in the trailers, it was just teased that Bail Organa has a cameo in the movie, etc. What if one of the groups that Jyn/Cassian contact is...Jabba the Hutt? (Not crazy, by the way - he's been rumored to re-appear in 'one of' the upcoming Star Wars movie, and that's obviously not going to be Episode 8. And EARLY, EARLY script leaks had indicated it was Jabba that was the middle-man who ultimately sold the intel to the Rebels on the Death Star project existing at all.) I'd be pretty pleased to see Jabba's Star Jewel on-screen, and if the product release then had a partisan X-Wing flying alongside...I wouldn't hate that at all.

(Odds of this being the case? Oh, let's say 2% likely or so. Still think SWX58 is related to that partisan X-Wing, just getting hopes up for what else it might be...)

If there was you would be getting hit with it all the time for having no sense of humor.

Also if you read the book 'Catalyst' carefully you'd know that while Saw Gerrara is not associated with the Rebel Alliance 10 years before the Rogue One, he is one of the architects of a full-fledged rebellion in one of the Corporate Sector systems.

Han Solo also wasn't a Rebel until he was.

*shrug* I haven't seen it before, but sure, let's keep quoting it so everyone gets to see it again and again.

If I remember correctly it showed up at least five times ^^

I've only got five X Wings and often find myself wishing I had more. I hope they include at least one in the box if they're going to do a new X Wing fix.

If I were to post this image with the caption "Official leaked image"

How many people would find it funny and how many people would find it annoying.

What's worse is the other image is overused, it is an actual product,

an older one, just an upside down copy of it to make it look original.

You would make an awesome straight man , thank you for the answer.

I don't know off hand - Who is Red 5?

Presumably, someone who dies in the movie so that this fighter is available for Luke to fly in the next one...?

Well old EU it was Hobbie or Janson, I think Hobbie, who were both too ill to fly at Yavin. I will be going now.

Depends on the illness.

And there weren't too many people left to judge him, either.
