The Tantive IV was the Rebel Blockade Runner.  To paraphrase the Star Wars
Behind the Magic CD "[The Empire belived the Rebel Blockade Runner to be a
massive battle platform but discovered it was just a run of the mill Corellian
Corvette.]"

As for the new red color tagline, I am thinking we might wind up seeing a
Republic Cruiser from Episode 1.  Personally I would prefer a mostly grey
Corvette. Either way I will probably want at least 2.

(What movie are you "all the ships are white except for the blue TIEs" people
watching?  In the Star Wars Trilogy I watched, all of the ships including
non-black areas of TIEs are the same light grey with the occasional accent
color.)

Ok I'm done ranting.

It clearly states it is a Rebel Blockade Runner, but not necessarily the
Tantive IV (or whatever the number was).  I have seen pictures of all Blue
and all Red RBR's.  But the diplomatic crafts have to have red on them
somewhere.  So maybe we could see the whole thing in Red, who knows, it only
states that it "features" a new red color.  I wouldn't call a red stripe a
main feature to brag about.
