[Spoiler Video] Episode VII X-wing

[ZanderNao]

Well, as part of the "Star Wars for Change" campaign JJ Abrams released a video showing off the brand new version of the X-wing. It's an interesting blend of classic gritty star wars with an updated, more streamlined design. I think it could make for a great in-game experience if anyone wanted to get a jump on it. The link to the video is below:

Lol.  Mousedroid escaped the destruction of the Death Star.  I knew that devious little droid was resourceful.

Better villain than palpatine

Looks like a Z95 Headhunter, not an Xwing

That's what I thought as soon as I saw it. Looks exactly like it except with dual cannons on both sides instead one one each. Looks cool.

Have they just not added the other wings on yet?

The Z95 doesn't have the X-foils of the X-wing, also you'll notice it only has 2 engines, not four.

That's true... I waffled a bit on the distinction myself. It did seem so much more streamlined like a Z-95. but the edge of the foil rims was more like the X-wing than I'm used to. Plus the clincher is no droid pit. Your distinction makes more sense. Still, seeing an updated Z-95 in JA wouldn't be a bad thing either... One that seems less clunky would be great.
