Fellow Seibertronian s250 has come across 3 new images of what appear to be new Star Wars Transformers. The first picture is that of Mace Windu's Episode III Jedi Starfighter, the second picture is what appears to be Saesee Tiin's Episode 2 era Jedi Starfighter and the third picture is that of a Republic Gunship. Now the first and third picture are dead one, we know what they look like. But the second picture is thought to be Saesee Tiin's Jedi Starfighter because of the color scheme it has, it also appears to come with its external hyperdrive booster which can detach on the real thing. The Seibertron News Crew will keep you informed as we learn more!

Hey thanks s250! This has been Newsified.

And if I am not mistaken that second image is Saesee Tiin's Jedi Starfighter. Thats pretty cool that it comes with its external hyperdrive booster.

Why why why do I feel compelled to get these, when I know they will just end up disappointing me???

BTW ACS did you get a gold Santa Commander? I saw that you got 2x it, so I was just curious...

Well, they have mehooked, I'm interested to see the robot modes of the two new molds...I hope they are good...

And I imagine we can expect the Howling spikey repaint of the gunship as well, since it was the one that originally was painted in that manner.

Not bad at all. Will pick up and continue with this line.

All I wanna know is release dates. These things are must haves for me.

COME THE F--- ON! Get off the tired, crappy Jedi starfighter mold already. This mold was crap to begin with, and no matter what they do to it, will always be crap.

It's a shame this line, the ships are dead on the money, but the robot modes are so goofey with a premiss so ill writen no one would ever by it!

Read my comment about the new Death Star, and I think it's a better cause for these guys than the bull Hasbro provided, but still, it doesn't change the fact that this is such a waste of perfectly good plastic :-(

Great vehicles, smeggish robots. I might get Mace Windu's fighter and leave it in vehicle mode because I'm just such a Sam Jackson/Mace Windu nut. But then again, I don't even like the EpIII starfighter design...

I can't wait to see the robot modes of the Jedifighter and Gunship

I've prefered the EpII fighters over the ones in EpIII so I'll definately be takeing a look at that second one. The gunship might take some time to grow on me.

I love the gunship in the Star Wars line. It looks like a great vehicle if you have several clone troopers.

While I like it here, you really a lot of those tiny figures to get that affect (I know that's not the point here, but I'm being a geek).

I feel the same wa about SWTF's. I have been disapointed in the past but I keep getting them. But they are getting better as they come out with new molds like Palpatine and the Arc-170.

I didnt get the Gold Santa commander. It was more of a accident that I got 2 because of a weird order fluke, but it works out cause im ceeping one minty fresh.

And you can bet they will make a "Hunt for Grevious" Gunship with the dragons teeth and all of that on it. That will look pretty cool IMO.

Anxious to see the Gunship's bot mode - want to know if it'll be worth kitbashing into Star Wars Caelus.

Maybe I'm crazy, but it looks like the Saesee Tiin Starfighter might have a transformation similar to Titanium Thundercracker/GF Starscream...

The Starfighter's pretty cool looking. I'd expect that kind of deco on a Decepticon, but it makes sense for Windu because it matches that purple lightsaber he uses.

Really, who didn't see Mace Windu coming? Guess that mold has plenty of miles let in it......
The other Jedi fighter is cool, and I'm a sucker for that gunship. Anyone have a link for the Vader/Death Star picture? I can't seem to find it.....
