In other news, MF.com seems to be under invasion by moronic fucks from TFN because some cockbite over there said that MF had the leaked trailer.

Also, I don't think I've ever seen so many dimwits cry "GIMME!!" and keep asking for a new version of something so awful in quality.
Now you know our plight. :cry:

New pictures of Wookies probably indended for the VD have come up over at MF. Interesting about one in particular of Chewbacca is that it gives a really good look at his fingers, which haven't really been seen before now (the OT costume had the fur attatched to his fingers while the RotS costume doesn't).

Basically they're kind of like chimpanzee hands but not as thin, with black skin and nails.

Just stupid question, of what are we (not) talking about (pics or video clip)?

A series of HS pics including the ones I mentioned above. 8)

Just remembered, the walker APC reminded me of the AT-TE converted transport from one of the Empire comics. (The one where they get attacked by Amanaman in a jungle).

The one up front looks like a standard AT-TE (unless the front's been modified). The other one seems to be a dedicated troop transport. Note the open space aft of the cockpit.

I´m not sure, but I think it´s a version of the tri-walker from the Kashyyyk photos. The same or a similar type of tank was seen in another released HS photo, once again on Felucia walking in formation.

They appear to be shorter than the AT-TE's (possibly not carrying any troops), with a turreted cannon on top and a bigger cannon fixed up-front.

Since the AT-TE is listed on the OS for ROTS, it could either mean that these new walkers are the next gen. AT-TE or they´re something else and AT-TE's will be seen someplace else.

EDIT: http://img141.exs.cx/img141/7067/exotic1lo3vd.jpg

DOUBLEPLUSEDIT: It seems it can barely be seen to the right on this photo as well. That makes the tanks in front of it definitely AT-Tri walkers.

I take it I'm not the only one who's heard about or seen the set for the final scene in RotS? I'm guessing it's only a rumor, but it's said that the set is a faithful recreation of the Executor's bridge. Any truth to that?

A Star Destroyer bridge set, not necessarily the Executor. In fact, I´m almost hoping it´s another type of warship, either a Victory (yes, I know Pablo said there weren´t any) or a new design. 8)

I would say it's probaly a Vendator or a Mandator, we know that KDY bridges are very similar to each others. The bridge design will tell us it's an KDY ship (assuming other companies don't use KDY bridge design).

German site showing images of ships depicted in the new Revell kit series. No idea if these are the actual models, though I have my doubts.

Excuse my ignorance, but what are Mandators?
