Hello all,
I decided to check out www.rebelscum.com this morning, just to see if they had
posted any more pics from the new catalog.  Unfortunately, they haven't posted
any new ones, but they do have three higher-res scans from sections of the
original picture.  The close-up I found the most interesting was of the • B-wing.
Check them out and see for your self!

Thanks alot for this.  The pilot looks extremely cool although I don't know
about the B-Wing.  To me the engines are to blocky and the lower wing should be
longer and thicker.  The front of the canopy is extremely close to the one on
my B-Wing but otherwise I think I will be sticking with my version.

It does look like we might get some new tiles and guns with the B-Wing as well.
Still looks like a good set for parts like the other SW sets so I will
defenitly be getting some.  Especially for that pilot with the cool helmet!!!

One cool thing about having SW as a theme is that we can actually build
something before TLG and then compare it instead of the other way around.
