Oh, it's Darth Revan. Or more charitably, a combination of Darth Vader and RotJ Luke.

I just tuned into that stream and some dude was staring into the camera and slowly clapping his hands. Then the feed cut out. Hope somebody GIF'd that.

It looks from that image that TIE fighters are now black instead of grey.

It'll be interesting to see how they explain the Empire's continued survival. The posters make it seem like there are still full armies of Stormtroopers.

Kylo Ren still looks like a thermos to me. He looks a lot cooler in profile.

Professor Grumpy posted:It'll be interesting to see how they explain the Empire's continued survival. The leaked info I read says that the Empire didn't survive, all of the worlds split up and form their own factions and alliances and are now fighting for control of the galaxy. So the civil war pretty much continued right after the Empire fell. Just now it's just as violent and bad as the previous two.

Professor Grumpy posted:It'll be interesting to see how they explain the Empire's continued survival. I know the EU doesn't matter anymore, but I thought it handled that issue pretty well. When the Emperor and Vader died there were Grand Moffs and other warlord types(like Thrawn) who filled the power-vacuum and were able to continue to be a pretty powerful force. Keep in mind that a Star Destoyer would have thousands and thousands of troops on it, and the Empire even had ships that were bigger than that. With all that set up it was perfectly feasible that someone with a good fleet and the right title could have an army of Stormtroopers in the six figures.

Holy poo poo, look at that new shuttle! It looks like the wings must rotate instead of fold, I'm guessing.
