Plus, the F1 2017 rule changes would mean that besides the nose and front wing (which an MOC job can do a superb job of...), other bits like the tires, rear wing and engine cover [MOST especially the one with the sharkfin and extra mid-wing] would be difficult to do accurately...

The Clone and Imperial Shock Troopers both need dual-molded legs as well (White with Red boots.) That would be the torso a regular Imperial Navy Admiral.

Those guys need the updated helmets more than anything else, plus dual-molded legs . One more Imperial trooper minifig in need of updating is the Snowtrooper. His legs are still unprinted compared to the Hoth rebels. (Any suggestions on Imperial Snowtrooper replacement legs?) I have those same parts awaiting an Imperial Scout Trooper. Now to pick up another pair of Monster Scientist arms to make a sniper version... (I have a Brickarms DLT-20A awaiting him, with plans to order 2 more for IG-88.)

Well, there is somewhat of a way... Remember the custom Imperial Officer torso decals? I have thankfully kept a set of Captain (6-square rank insignia) and High Admiral (12-squares; same as the older Piett minifig); but have also made myself proper Grand Admiral and Grand Moff rank insignias should the need arise. More patterns are still WIPs... Well, you're not alone. There was this old thread for Custom Imperial Officer torso decals. If you can find it there are extra decals which involve rank insignias. I've used Microsoft Paint to make myself a Grand Admiral's rank insignia plaque but the only headache comes with finding the right decal paper. The only feasible type of decal paper would be either the 'transclucent' vinyl decal paper of the type they use for waterslide decals. Extra 'parts' from that said thread are included in the attachment.

If the Death Star is getting a new release, then pray and hope TLG use the proper printing for Grand Moff Tarkin from that TIE Advanced vs. A-Wing set. I mean, at least they finally get it right with the 4 code cylinders but they should also use that printing on a dark gray torso. Plus, I see potential of that torso (with a different rank plaque) being used for another key Imp from Rebels; Admiral Konstantine.

I will try making this weapon as well, but with 2 different parts.

Which is why I always look up 3rd party companies for re-arming my Star Wars armies. BrickKIT have done only the DC-15A and the E-11, but Brickarms have done those 2 and the DC-15S.

If you don't mind the €0.99 cost for each weapon, I found a store on Bricklink in Lithuania that has Brickarms weapons including the DC-15A here: https://www.bricklink.com/store.asp?p=shop4TECHNIC&itemID=72833453 If not them, then BrickKIT: http://brickkit.eu/en/brick-kit-all-elements/7011-brickkit-dc15-black.html might be the option you want to consider...

If they do continue with this lineup, they can consider more LMP cars, GTE cars as well as F1 cars in addition to the existing machines.

I'll pass, due to both the ludicrous price tag, lack of certain elements and the fact that the Imperial Snowtroopers still have no leg printing.

Han Solo's gun is a modified Mauser C96 Broomhandle please. Also spotted some new photos on Will's flickr page, including a T-21 and the T-21B as well as the DH-17.

Besides that, the only minifig that needs updating is the Empire's Snowtrooper. I find the lack of the lack of leg printing and lack of proper backpack, to be most displeasing. Those aside, when will TLG give us a Republic Army Galactic Marine?

In my opinion, they can still pick the Sullust option for both BP's.

There is one key problem and that is the mouthpiece of the Scout Trooper helmet. The top half is OK, but it's the front and the portion of the helmet beneath that sun visor that needs to be taken care of. Also, the OT Scout Troopers need more ideal arms, and for me the arms from the Monster Scientist will do just nicely.

While I'm in a good Republic, Imperial/FO mood. Just watched Ep. VII yesterday, and now I do have an excuse for getting armored troops...

If I were to do this job, I'd use masking tape and an automatic eraser with very new batteries, plus some polish... Also, the black spots on his chest plate could definitely do the role of blaster damage, as a fatality due to a single shot...

Also, the FOE-11 done by Brickarms is their name for the F-11d.

The Brickarms Star Wars guns so far are the: DC-15A, DC-15S (Republic); E-11, DL-44 and the A295. The MG34 and Lewis Gun will do as Star Wars weapons as well minus their magazines. One key W.I.P of Star Wars guns I know he has include the DH-17. The EE-3 (named as the Bounty Carbine) is among the 2016 Brickarms Fan Choice weapons up for voting. Other suggestions for Brickarms Star Wars weapons include the: SE-14r, RT-97C, DLT-20A and the E-11s (although I think this weapon will have to be a custom...)

If compared with the actual machine as it appeared in the show, then maybe not. Correction; No please...

I can see that 2x2 wedge plate on the Corvette, red Camaro and the R8 LMS.

That'll work. But not with the Imperial Patrol Gunship in Star Wars: Rebels please.

Ok then. The only time they are seen with the rebreather packs are when you face them on Tatooine and Sullust. Not when you play as them so the option will have to be a user dependent custom... The key issue lies with the Police Gunship's windows which are so far, only in Transparent Red.

The only drawback with that option, is the lack of 1st person view, and you get the T-21 as your weapon. But if the set is somewhat inspired by Jakku, then TLG made a teeny mistake by not giving them Sandtrooper backpacks. I mean, when I saw the trailer for the Survival Mode set on Tatooine, the Shock Troopers had Sandtrooper backpacks...

The rear-facing shooter suggests that this speeder is something TLG designed as a unique vehicle, to give it not only offensive but also defensive firepower...

I already saw it on the art for the box for that set... The Imperial Speeder Bike's blaster cannon is mounted under the swoop, not on the side like the Rebel speeder here...
