Notice the tan 3x3 round plates on the right hand side of the MF.  These
rounded plates ensure that something, e.g. an escape pod, can easily be
inserted.

Nice call!  That's a pretty good guess.  There could even be two escape pods.

That would be better than having the cockpit as an escape pod.  But it
wouldn't leave much room for "internals" in the MF.

I'm not hoping for much in the way of MF "internals".  That would just add to
the price of the set, without providing a visible value-add to the
time-of-purchase experience.

In other words, people can't be able to see the insides when they buy the set,
so having a cool interior doesn't sell more sets, so why should LC put more
money into the interior?

There's going to have to be at least "some" interior detail. They'll probably
show pictures on the box of the back end opened up to increase the "time of
purchase" experience. Other wise, we'd have an MF that only one guy could fit
in (in the cokpit) and if other figs come with it they'll all have to take
turns riding in it. I'm thinking something like Kenner's falcon.
