Bandai is still in the game:

 

Yeeesh, they need to get with it here.  There's still a good number of OT designs they haven't touched (Imperial Shuttle, Tie Bomber), a pile of good stuff from the PT, and a heap of stuff from the "new" canon that they can latch onto.

After the two I mentioned, I would absolutely be down for official E-Wing and Tie Defender kits, and I still want a decent standard N-1, V-19, Clone Wars-era Y-Wing, ARC-170 and any of the Jedi Starfighter designs.

Nice!  Been waiting for that one...

Now to just wait and pray that Amazon doesn't shaft me on this one like it did my Tie Bomber pre-order.

There's a TIE Bomber (Armada Edition) coming out.

Interesting, what's the difference, if any?  I'm just generally annoyed at whatever caused Amazon to completely yeet my pre-order into the abyss last time.

In other news though, spent a bit of time taking measurements, and after coming up with a fitting sleeve interior, I can build different nose cones for the E-Wing off of it.  I'll probably do one more like the original EU design later, but I wanted to try something a little different to start out.  Kind of reminiscent of a BSG Viper nose, but a little more curved, and with a similar detail to the original X-Wing nosecone.

Will need some intensive sanding, but I'm glad the plastic I used is pretty near one of the stock paint shades used on the ship.

I've seen Armada Editions of other ships in the store and they looked like they were painted lighter or a slightly different color so it might be the same for the TIE Bomber.
