Not that I am particularly bumped about the C-ROC we are getting, but still...

All the more room for an Action Transport though, which is great news.

I am very happy FFG went modern super-styles with REBELS...(AGAIN) cause it continues to demonstrate that they mean to do CANON Stuff and it also means that we are not going to be stuck with crap-video game-ships from thirty years ago.

But yeah I too wanted me a Jabba Space Yacht!!!

Sacrilege!!!!

You should be tied on a pole and have fire cleanse your soul for this blasphemy!

and to scale it to x-wing it would have to be 2 feet long...... on a 3 foot play field

In other words it would be the Tantive and Raider equivalent...

Nope bigger

6.7% longer...and less than that if they applied a sliding scale as for the Tantive

[assuming 150m for the Tantive...if using 127m, then, yes, maybe 25% bigger]

Nope lots bigger

Yeah but we are talking The FFG Version for the game.

Tantiv Iv Lengt 126.6 M

Star Jewel Lenght 160 M
that approx 25% extra lenght

deliiiiiicious tears

i kid, i kid, wanted star jewell as a corvette class with z95 launch bays

I agree that this should have been the ship for Jabba.

Unfortunately, I think it's clear that the mouse wants to keep FFG to their canon only instead of going back. I think that has been clear since wave 9 (you could argue 8 is when they started their influence but it wasn't until 9 that it was 100 percent canonized without EU references).

Wonder what they will come up with instead. Won't be Action Transport though unless Rebels canonizes it.

When did the Tantive IV shrink? It's always been 150 meters, I thought.

Tantive IV was 150m in Legends and the OT.

Then Lucas Films messed up the modell in Episode III which was a lot stubbier then the one in EP IV.

They even admitted it, which lead to the introduction of the CR70 which is 126m long. So the ship in Ep III isn't the Tantive IV.

The FFG modell ist the 150m version.

Disney seems to have retconned all CR90s to be 126m long.

They can't be that dedicated to only producing canon ships; the pack comes with new material for a non-canon ship.

The appearance in ANH can be confirmed to measure approx 150 meters by comparison to the ISD that is on screen with it in several scenes, unless the Devastator has been shrunk too. I don't give a bantha poodoo about what the wiki or Dizznee says, the Rebel Blockade Runner is a lot closer to 150 meters than 125 meters. Dr. Saxton would be rolling in his Aussie grave, if he were dead.

The Star Jewel would be the PERFECT scum corvette if Jabba crew was t with the Croc (it even kinda looks like the 'shoe')

So next bet is the Marauder Corvette, since it has corvette in the name and can be sized how ever Dizznee wants if you are throwing out all EU measures. But I'm sure what ever has shown up in Rebels as background fodder or in a junk yard/crashed-on-the-side-of-a-canyon would do.

Can't get much more canon than being the FIRST **** SHIP TO APPEAR ON SCREEN IN A STAR WARS MOVIE.

Dizznee, the new WEG.

(Sorry if I seem testy today, haven't had my morning meds yet.)

(That and changing the size of anything from the OT with clearly set dimensions that can be measured on screen and in physical models built in conventionally used scales...REALLY gets my BUNGOAT)

The mouse needs to remove there grubby paws from the Star wars cannon, it removes to much of the good stuff and only replaces it with even shatter versions of what was there.

Kyle Katarn, great hero character, nice backstory, helped make star wars great.

GONE

Jabba's Star Jewel : Allowed Jabba to be fleshed out about what time of space craft he might have used and if he ever left Tattoonine

GONE

Zann Consortium : again, allows backstory to florish with Jabba's relationship with other underworld characters, allows unique ships to be brought in to further broaded the universe and bring it to life

Instead, what do we get for cannon...

A boring character that quite frankly ANYONE could have replaced and done equally a good job

A walking lamer version of Jabba....with a horrible voice that you dont wanna hear, not at all "demanding" of respect even, at least jabba's voice was menacing and sounded unique.

^and spoke another language. Star Wars without subtitles for funky languages just isn't the same.

I guess kids in the 21st century can't read as well as the ones in 1977.
