We dispatched our crack Madnalorian recon team to San Diego to see if they could learn which Star Wars characters were lurking around potentially auditioning for the 3.75” line.

First, you probably already saw the big Black Series news at our friends at Jedi Temple Archives about the massive 18 figure assortment that will launch the blue highlighted Tie Fighter Pilot Black Series cards. In addition to that, they have identified some of those 18 figures here.

The Battlefront News YouTube channel has speculated on the possibility of the Executor, Darth Vader’s Super Star Destroyer, in Battlefront 3 and offer a possible hint dropped by DICE. I for one would love a level featuring the most imposing spaceship from the entire saga.
