We've finally seen Jessika Pava (played by Jessica Henwick) in the latest TV spot, who's interested in possibly seeing a female X-Wing Fighter pilot in the Hasbro line up?

If they offer a figure, probably. I still want to get Asty for my son, but he's way more into Droids than aliens right now. Maybe after he sees the movie.

She's probably gonna get blowed up.

Or she's the new Wedge of the trilogy.

One of the two.

PotatoFighter · Nov 21, 2015

LOL, she'll be an affirmative action figure. ;p jk. I just want to see the new character, but I have a weird feeling she's gonna have a banana visor on the figure.

I was going to say since she could be a major player, I can't imagine them not doing her face, or at least doing a removable helmet. Then I remembered we already got helmeted Asty, and got sad.

So nanner visors not FTW?

Only if she's 6" BS tho.

Those are meant to be ugly yellow. The Resistance had a mix up with the pirates that stole the helmets for them, and they received official Minions Helmets by accident. The Resistance are stuck with them for now.

Dang it Bob, I told you to hire the other guys, not the cheap ones!

If its 5POA, she's gonna have a banana for a face. I personally think that's new a species that Hasbro cooked up just for this toy line--Banana Face. Banana Face X-Wing pilots will go really great with your Hammer Head figures.

Who knows if this character will ever get a proper, detailed SA 3.75" in that Black Series line with a removable helmet with a clear orange visor and a nice sculpted human face.

Don't forget the Banana Resistance troopers. And please don't mock them either. They’re just freedom fighters trying to reinstate the Banana Republic.

Absolutely... the more X-Wings pilots the merrier.

gijigsaw · Nov 23, 2015

Which TV Spot - can't find any on YouTube that shows this pilot or Nien Nunb. A link would be appreciated. Thanks!

Masterfett · Nov 23, 2015

Is this a case where a female looking Pilot gets a male figure, that's also painted wrong? :grin:

As long as she wears that helmet with the nanner visor.

Billy_Ray · Nov 24, 2015

Pardon my ignorance, but am I supposed to know who this character or actress is?

Masterfett · Nov 24, 2015

But of course you are. Haven't you been doing you homework?

wedgeswingman · Nov 24, 2015

Definitely, but I'd like it to be a 3-3/4" SA figure. Which means unfortunately we'll be waiting a decade.

You won't wait a decade for Hasbro to announce it and technically release it, but you'll wait a decade for distribution to hit your area. For damn sure.

I have been, but my dog ate it.

So I googled the actress...Game of Thrones, is that the big deal with her?

I have! I hear were being tested when the movie is over. I need full concentration on this one.

I'm telling you, man, it's worth 40% of your grade!

Lak_Sivrak · Nov 25, 2015

META!
WE'VE GONE META, EVERYBODY!

Seriously, though. I don' know this actress. I guess I'll be googling her later.

Masterfett · Nov 25, 2015

TMI, I don't care what you're doing to her later... :whistling:

Though I am curious what's with someone casting everyone from GoT, some fanboy involved or are they really that good of Actors?

I don't believe anyone is denoting a compound formed by dehydration, but if you are, please stand up.

Zuvio · Dec 5, 2015

My guess. Mr JJ Abrams is not gonna cast a woman Fighter Pilot in the movie just to have her blown-up in two ticks. I'd bet she'll be in figure form for sure, and i'll be buying it.
Now Hasbro, or anyone related to Hasbro in any way shape or form, if you ever read this, i'd like to say something... NO MORE BLOCK-YELLOW BANANA VISORS ON THESE FIGURES!!! We need translucent visors on the figures please

HEY hey, ho, ho, nanner visors have got to go!

Zuvio · Dec 24, 2015

We'll definitely need a translucent visor on her if she ever shows in figure form, to help make it easier for everyone to see it's a she, not a he.

Rinzler7 · Dec 24, 2015

I hope they make the Black X-wing pilot as well....

bucket_head · Feb 20, 2016

i'll buy whatever pilots they come out with, but with Hasbro's track record with female characters becoming toys, I am not planning on holding my breath.
