Reveal of new X-Wing Pilot from The Force Awakens
Reveal of new X-Wing Pilot from The Force Awakens Exciting news! Several sites (Starwars7news.com, TheForce.net and Makingstarwars.net) have revealed a new character from the Force Awakens movie: Bullhead, who is a new X-Wing pilot. First, let’s look at what the X-Wing flighter looks like (see above photo; source.) Spoiler Alert! Bullhead is the character’s species and here is a photo from the movie set (source: StarWars7News) From looking at this picture, I can see that the background of the image matches up with the same rebel base that was shot from the movie set in Greenham Common in England. Interestingly, photos from this same site show Bullhead with different bodies: Plus there are some questions pointing to what inspired the Bullhead’s name and the facial design of the face. The online speculation is the Brown bullhead catfish—look at the mouth’s corners, which are similar to the ones of the Bullhead’s face (picture from...
New leaked concept art from The Force Awakens
New leaked concept art from The Force Awakens Yesterday, a couple websites, TheForce.net and Makingstarwars.net, have revealed new leaked concept art images for The Force Awakens, along with early sketches of BB-8, two new aliens, another new X-Wing pilot, and a new kind of Tie Fighter never before seen. Concept art images of BB-8, New X-Wing pilot, and the two new aliens: These concept art images of BB-8 and new aliens are really cool works of art, but what is surprising is the sketch of the new X-Wing pilot. Why? He looks to be a new type of alien that I have never seen before. Plus this is the first time I have ever seen an alien as an X-Wing pilot. Also here the new alien drawn as a rebel technician and as a speeder bike thug: Next here are some revealed concept art sketches of a new style of Tie fighter: The sketches of this Tie fighter were inspired by a MB&F Music Machine 3, a luxury music box, built by a Swiss company. For more about the music box, check it out here. I think it would be a great design upgrade for the new movie....
More Star Wars Lego figures revealed
More Star Wars Lego figures revealed Here’s more exciting news! Yesterday Starwars7news.com, posted more leaked images of new Lego figures from Mexico. The first set includes ten Snowtroopers and ten Firetroopers for sale on eBay at the cost of US $185.00. Image removed at request of LEGO. From looking at this picture of these new Lego designs of the Snowtroopers and Flamtroopers, they seem to match the designs of the costumes from the Star Wars Celebration Anaheim exhibit. See the pictures of the exhibit here. The next new Lego figurines include an Imperial soldier, an new strange looking character, and Rey (image removed by request of LEGO). From the looks of these Lego figures here in this picture I’d say the Imperial soldier’s outfit (left) looks like it hasn’t changed much. Hard to say who the center character is. Plus here is a list of the other new Lego sets from Makingstarwars.net: 75099 – Rey’s Speeder with Rey and Unkar Henchman mini figures 75100 – First Order Snowspeeder with First Order Snowrtrooper x2 and Snowtrooper Officer mini figures 75101 – First Order Special Forces TIE Fighter with First Order TIE Fighter Pilot x2, First Order Officer, and First Order Ground Crew mini figures 75102 – Poe’s X-Wing Fighter with Poe Dameron, BB-8, Resistance X-Wing Pilot, and Resistance Ground Crew mini figures 75103 – First Order Transporter with Resistance Soldier x2, First Order Flametrooper x2, First Order Stormtrooperx2, and Captain Phasma mini figures 75104 – Kylo Ren’s Command Shuttle with Kylo Ren, General Hux, First Order Officer x2, and First Order Crew x2 mini figures 75105 – Millennium Falcon with Rey, Finn, Han Solo, Chewbacca, BB-8, Tasu Leech, and Kanjuklub Gang...
Meet the new Villains for The Force Awakens
Meet the new Villains for The Force Awakens Thanks to Comic0-Con, we now know who the villains are in the Force Awakens. Movies.mxdwn.com, has good overview. Drum roll . . .here they are! The first villain is Kylo Ren the new adversary of the Jedi: Though there is little that we know about him, we know that he is the new Sith Lord, dressed in black, wear’s a mask on his face (although his face has already been shown in a magazine article), and that he wields a red cross-guard lightsaber which was already featured in the first trailer for The Force Awakens. The second villain is Captain Phasma the first new female silver Stormtrooper, the new leader of the new improved elite Stormtrooper squad, and works directly under General Hux: Though there is very little we know about her, there is some online speculation that she is the pilot of the chrome and red tie fighter that crash-landed in the desert of the planet Jakku. The give away could be that the color scheme of Phasma’s tie fighter is similar to the armor she wears. The color schemes of the other tie fighters are chrome and white. For more discussion, see the complete article from dorksideoftheforce.com here. Third, we have General Hux. He’s a fairly young character and there has been some speculation he is related somehow to Luke. It’s a bit confusing, but mxdwn.com has some analysis...
What will Disneyland build for the new Star Wars Movie?
What will Disneyland build for the new Star Wars Movie? Disneyland has recently agreed to spend 1 billion dollars to expand the park in Anaheim, CA. The Orange County Register talked to two Disney experts to speculate on how Star Wars might factor in: George Lucas had been vying for space at Disneyland for years. The word on the street is that Disney officials were waiting to see how “Star Wars: Episode VII – The Force Awakens” does at the box office before revealing future plans. A Star Wars Land is likely in the expansion because “it has a global audience, and the blueprint could easily be taken around the world.” Because “heads in beds” (more people staying in Disney hotels) is more lucrative than park ticket sales, Disney could make a “Star Wars”-themed land in both Disneyland and Disney California Adventure. Splitting Star Wars Land could “encourage people to stay longer and visit both parks in order to feel like they’ve seen the whole...
Star Wars Rebels news: Female Inquisitor has been unmasked!
Star Wars Rebels news: Female Inquisitor has been unmasked! Shocking news! Today Makingstarwars.net and Starwars7news.com report on the unmasking of one of the new Inquisitors who is going to appear in season 2 of the TV series Star Wars Rebels. The trailer for the season 2 revealed that there will be two new Inquisitors (who were dispatched by Darth Vader to go after Asoka and the ghost crew). The official Star Wars Rebels magazine from the U.K. has revealed a pair of close-up portraits of the Inquisitors. Before we go to the unmasking of the female Inquisitor lets start will the male Inquisitor: Looking at the picture of this male Inquisitor, one thing is certain: the species is unknown, so this guy is a new type of alien that we have never seen before. When this Inquisitor appeared in the trailer for season 2, he looked similar to a Weequay (Hondo Ohnaka’s species), except the teal skin color and lack of wrinkles on his face suggests he isn’t a Weequay at all. One note: the lightsaber that he carries is very similar to the saber that the first Inquisitor used during the first season of Star Wars Rebels. Now it’s time to move on to the female Inquisitor and see who she really is without the mask. If all of you fans out there think you know who this Inquisitor is, well I am afraid you are wrong! Here is female Inquisitor’s picture (at top): Some online speculation theorizes that the new Inquisitor is really Luminara’s apprentice and Asoka’s friend Barris Offee, it turns out that’s wrong. I was almost convinced that it was Barriss because later episodes of “Star Wars the Clone...
New revealed Lego sets of Poe's Black X-Wing and the Millennium Falcon
New revealed Lego sets of Poe’s Black X-Wing and the Millennium Falcon Great news! Starwars7news.com, has posted up images of new Lego sets of Poe Dameron’s Black X-Wing Fighter and the Millennium Falcon. Plus there are some new mini figures of new characters that we have never even seen before. Here are some photos of the new Lego sets and minifigs: Lego set of Poe’s black X-Wing Fighter: IMAGES REMOVED AT REQUEST OF LEGO. Here is the source that posted this image. The look of this new type of X-Wing fighter is pretty cool, but what’s astonishing to me is that BB-8 will be in the droid socket of this new improved X-Wing. That is very strange since I haven’t seen any clues that BB-8 is an astromech droid. Lego mini figures: Here is the source that posted this image. Also here is a leaked photo of the Millennium Falcon and its associated mini figures: Here is the source that posted this image. Note the new characters: Tasu Leech and Kanjuklub Gang Member! Those characters haven’t been mentioned before! Update July 16th: On this website called Hothbricks.com, it has posted a list of new Lego mini figures which came from Amazon Spain. 75099 : 2 minifigs – Rey & Unkar Henchman 75100 : 3 minifigs – 2 First Order Snowtroopers & 1 First Order Snowtrooper Officer 75101 : 4 minifigs – 2 First Order TIE Fighter Pilots, 1 First Order Officer & 1 First Order Crew 75102 – 4 minifigs : Poe Dameron, BB-8, 1 Resistance X-Wing Pilot & 1 Resistance Ground Crew 75103 : 7 minifigs – 2 Resistance Soldiers, 2 First Order...
10 Star Wars characters who should have films of their own
10 Star Wars characters who should have films of their own As a response to the news that Han Solo is getting an origin story spin-off of his own, Liam Gaughan, a special contributor to the Dallas Morning News’ Guide Love, suggests a list of the top 10 Star Wars characters who should have spin-offs of their own. Find the entire article here. Let’s see if you agree with Liam on his thoughts: 1. Qui-Gon Jinn (Obi-Wan’s master): Where did this guy come from? What was it like to train under Count Dooku? Would it be cool to find out more about his early years? 2. Obi-Wan Kenobi (Qui-Gon’s apprentice): I’ve read some of the preteen books on Obi-Wan as Qui-Gon’s apprentice. Some of those stories would be great incorporated into an origin story of Obi-Wan. And you’d get Qui-Gon too, so two for the price of one. 3. Master Yoda: Here’s a guy we know nothing about. Where’s he from, what species is he, why does he live so long?...
Will Daniel Crag be a Stormtrooper?
Will Daniel Crag be a Stormtrooper? Recently on StarWars7News.com, there was a rumor questioning whether or not Daniel Crag (who played British spy James Bond) will be a Stormtrooper in The Force Awakens. The general thinking was this isn’t true, because it would overlap his schedule between his latest Bond movie and The Force Awakens. But a later statement from actor Simon Pegg (who is in the Star Wars movie) made it more complicated. During a recent interview, Simon Pegg revealed that Daniel Craig will be a Stormtrooper in The Force Awakens, but later clarified that he was only speculating based on the rumors about Craig (source: http://www.starwars7news.com/2015/05/rumor-daniel-craig-to-cameo-as-a-stormtrooper-in-star-wars-the-force-awakens.html). Craig was asked about this in an interview with EntertainmentWeekly: The James Bond star made clear he finds the idea of making a cameo in the sci-if blockbuster preposterous. “Why would I ever bother doing something like that?” Craig tells EW. “F—ing hell! Pffft. Play an extra in another movie?” Craig vigorously denies ever putting on the galactic empire’s notorious white helmet. “Talk to Simon Pegg. He obviously knows way more than I do,” says Craig. “He’s just jealous because he’s not in Star Wars. He’s got some issue with J.J. I don’t know what the f— it is. You need to talk to Simon about it.” Interesting that Craig says he and Pegg aren’t in the movie . . . but we know Pegg is!...
Jurassic World director Colin Trevorrow is rumored to direct Star Wars: Episode IX
Jurassic World director Colin Trevorrow is rumored to direct Star Wars: Episode IX Recently on a website called SlashFilm.com, reported that (according to Umberto Gonzales from HeroicHollywood.com) Colin Trevorrow (director of Jurassic World) is rumored to be the director for Star Wars: Episode 9. Here is the story from SlashFilm.com: Our friend Umberto Gonzalez at Heroic Hollywood claims to have the scoop. I had been told by others that Lucasfilm was planning to announce an Episode IX director at the Comic Con panel, but could never get a good enough confirmation. Lucasfilm held the tech run-through of their panel in Hall H just a couple hours ago, so its possible that the information could have leaked out of that. I don’t have a second source able to confirm this report at this time, but Umberto seems pretty confident — confident enough to report it a mere 16 hours away from the scheduled presentation where it could easily and quickly be debunked....Star Wars Episode IX
