I agree with you, but I think they will release them in pairs, like the
Xwing and Tie Interceptor. These two are not comparable in performance as
the TIE-Interceptor was designed to go against the Awing, so they are not
pairing them up by a likeness pattern. However, they seem to be pairing
them up by price. This is smart so that they are not all expensive at the
same time. So I figure on a price point organization. So I will have to
say the next 5 would be Awing, Ywing, Bwing, TIE Fighter, and TIE Bomber.
Seeing that the Awing would be smaller set($100.00), we need a $150.00 set.
So I will go with the TIE Bomber. Then, next year, B-Wing and TIE Fighter.
Why no Y-Wing. I think they will have trouble douplicating the back
portions of the thrusters. So that is my guess. Awing and TIE Bomber.
