edit-Ninja'd but I'll leave the picture here anyway.

well, do you have a link to the official announcement of change?

 

@Sneakguest even the brickset article this morning for the new falcon says:

75212 Kessel Run Millennium Falcon, right out of Solo: A Star Wars Story, has been revealed. It will be available on April 20th, alongside four other System sets and two Buildable Figures which will hopefully be revealed soon.

The date wasn't changed at all, it just depends on country.

[Lobot]

What have they done to poor Chewie..... it looks like it's based on a really bad Passport ID!

Perhaps that's the reason why nobody else attempted to make the Kessel Run in less than 12 parsecs - it really is that exhausting!

So which region is 13/4 and which is 20/4?

Why can't a wookiee have a bad hair day? That's very prejudiced

Lol :)

I think he's okay as a fig, at least it's nice to get another wookie variant. I know Chewie is younger in this movie, but the film itself doesn't seem to really acknowledge this in his look too much, but I suppose they had to make another figure if they were going to accurately depict his double ammo belt and they tried to age him down a bit at the same time.

so chewie looks exactly same in ROTS but gets younger between ROTS and ANH?

[The_Chosen_1]

What on earth is going on with Chewie...?! 

[That Orange Thing]

How many figs come with this set? Is it the 4 shown on brickset or are there more? 4 figures at that price seems a little tight on legos part. I remember seeing pictures of a red droid somewhere.

The leaked pics show 7; the four shown on Brickset plus a white droid, a red (what I think is a) droid, and a hooded? figure.

Yes. 13/4/18 is 'Solo' Friday. All merchandise is out on that date.

Where did this come from? LEGO have printed catalogues with the release date in them.

I'm prepared to accept the release date has changed but proof is imperative!

At least I know I have seen it somewhere, a report that the date changed, like a month ago, but have no idea at all where that was, if it was a reliable source or not. Could as well have been here 

[Legoman123]

Do we have an interior shot of the Falcon?

Unfortunately not, but the description has said it will come with some kind of bar, beds and a Dejarik table and hyperdrive.

I love new Falcon! It's a really fresh take on something that we love, and it is fantastic. Interior sounds promising. I love blue and white color scheme. Minifigures are amazing.

Where did this "coming 13th April" rumors came from? From what we officially know, sets are coming on 20th April and it doesn't matter which country.

So will there be a black & orange Falcon next year...

the only alternative date i know about was posted at http://www.rebelscum.com/story/lego/LEGO_Han_Solo_Set_Date_Release_177860.asp and it came from the leaked Ukrainian catalogue. I can't see such a smallmarket getting the Solo releases a week ahead of everyone else though.

But we all know US retailers will have these on their shelves as quickly as they can get away with it.

Hmmm... In Germany the catalogue says that we are getting the sets in May.

I think you mean that AT-ST, not an AT-AT.

Okay, thanks for letting me know.

Oh boy, we get a  space coffee machine, how exciting.

Oh well I didn't really get that scene but at least someone liked it. 

[Seaber]

The Sandcrawler looks to have three droids in the preliminary image, one yellow astromech, one protocol droids, probably the RA-7 although I really hope it could be a CZ droid. The third looks like a medical droid, could this be a placeholder for an ASP droid?

If you look through the official catalogs for different countries you'll see that most of those that have date have April 13th and some have 20th.

It was from the leaked final catalog for Ukraine.

[Darth Malgus]

So only the two buildables. Still waiting to see an interior shot of the MF.

 

Out of the buildables that have leaked the trooper appears the best.
