I don't remember it having that big gun before. But then, I never used one, so maybe I just never noticed.

Nope. Doesn't seem to be. That gun is on mine.

Cool, must be on mine too then. I might cut it off and use it to make something else look fiercer! 😄
Looks like it's missing the frills on each side though. Which is odd. And the red paint is more wore off too.
yeah, its missing the frills!
Frills?! HOW DARE YOU! Scum are not frilly! X(
Those are important heat sinks. Or doom spikes. Or something.
But they're definitely not frills!

Can't be that important!

Ah but they were. They stabilized the ship well enough to have white right turns. By taking them away they’ve nerfed it’s dial into complete oblivion.
That is just weird. It doesn't even look like they've been photoshopped out very well...
I have seen some conversions with a container in the space at the left of the engine and it looked awesome ( I don't know if it is coherent but nowadays who care? ) . I love the strange design of this ship. The sculp of the v1 was beautiful, don't think it needs much improvement. Actually, I would love to see a new paint job.
The frill sinks are still there...
...in the backsplash image
Maybe it's cost cutting, to pay for those flappy wings on the other models.

They had to have a reason to cut $10 so that is would still only cost players $29.95 rather than the standard $39.95 of all other large ships.
It could also just be a mistake, the Republic ARC-170 doesn't have the all the paint apps seen on its preview image, the droid is green rather than black, the forward section is missing the black paint on the hull, the black paint on the spot between the pilot and copilot isn't there, though that isn't too bad since it never had that elsewhere, and the ship lackedthe red paint on the laser canons where it attached to the wings.

What's a backsplash image?
Ah, I see!
I always though they looked odd, kinda like exhaust pipes almost.
I like the "no frills" edition.
Nope, still as ugly as ever.
Probably a new sculpt, but the REAL question is if we get an errata to the title to add a 3 front arc.
Come on, I'm not even asking for an errata to the dial or ship.
Just the title
and a point decrease would make it totally playable again.
I noticed the title is facedown in the preview, so maybe that's promising something?

Here is the one with the cargo containers. So much cooler!

Seriously, what jumps is this thing mastering? It’s implied that it’s good for mapping hyperspace jumps so maybe they should have added a 3 teleport to its dial?
New paint job at least, considering the exhaust. Check Crabbok's vid at the 4:11 mark. Ship is still going to collect a lot of dust for FFG though, because they screwed it up badly for 2.0. Unplayable.
