Welcome to Eurobricks! I've moved your comment from the News thread to the Discussion thread. Please make sure to read the 1st post on both threads as it will help you know where to post what.

New A-Wing pilot just leaked (check paul_seeley4 on Instagram). That's basically a confirmation of May The 4th UCS being am A-Wing.

[BrickBob Studpants]

That’s the final nail in the D2C coffin (not that there was much doubt about it being an A-Wing in the first place) 

[Seaber]

Is that Sila Kott's helmet? I think that one was already released in the 2013 A-Wing, can anyone confirm? 

Fig looks great though, glad they've gone back to dark green.

Yup, you're absolutely right

Ahhh cheers, I was hoping it would be Jake Farrell's helmet, we got Arvel Crynvyd's in the 2017 one - at least I think I got them round the right way! 

[THELEGOBATMAN]

Not very useful information at this point, but $200 May The 4th set is confirmed to be the A-Wing.

Yup, and it's a good figure, too. Not really too much more detail than a normal pilot, but there's really not much you could add, anyway.

I thought it was the other way round with 2017 being Jake Farrell's helmet.

Consider my mind blown 

[scrapper142valk]

*internal screaming* The $30 501st and B1 Battlepack!

[BigGuy4U]

Looks nice, I'll definitely be getting this one. Is the jet trooper a named character, or does he just have different helmet markings because he's a jet trooper?

[thenightman89]

I had to double-check to make sure it wasn't still April 1st!  At last!

[BrickBob Studpants]

The first one to complain will be executed on the spot 

[w219]

I do not like the look of the new phase 2 troopers.
I prefer the previous one and why is there the black ring on the helmet when it is supposed to be based off the The Clone Wars version ?
The helmet looks off, i am disapointed.

August 1st

[Graupensuppe]

The "eyes" and "mouths" of the helmets were changed to look similar to the TCW style again... Whyyy?

[jdubbs]

That shockwave you just felt was MandR's ego exploding.

[scrapper142valk]

Given that LEGO released this and it comes out in August, we can expect images of the other sets soon, probably starting with the UCS A-Wing.

It is a good thing that it looks like TCW, but the previous TCW phase 2 501st trooper looks better in my opinion.

Probably because they don't want to base it off of troopers that killed an entire temple of people.

I'm personally fine with the design. What bothers me is that they'll use the overused clone/stormtrooper head instead of a TCW clone head that would better match the armour.

Agreed.

Lol, I keep refreshing Instagram to see his first reactions. I’m expecting a video intro similar to the 75192 reveal.
