    I thought the cyborg holding vader's helmet concept art was a hoax

    Well, IF the guy who saw the leaked artwork qualifies his article by stating that it's Luke Skywalker (BUT could be Adam Driver) I automatically call BS! The article and the alleged "leaked concept artwork" is dubious at best.

    I thought Driver was closer to the rumours of a human fighter pilot?

    but both Devin Faraci and Making seem to think it's Luke who becomes an evil cyborg.

    Yes, I first read the MSW article, which is the one that most people refer to:

    http://makingstarwars.net/2014/10/huge-rumor-star-wars-episode-viis-father-sized-moment/

    I am simply referencing the fact that the writer states he believes what he saw was Luke but later he says:

    So we're going from Luke Skywalker to maybe Adam Driver???? Driver is a cyborg villain and he's covering up his cybernetics???

    I call BS.

    That's fine. The inclusion of a cyborg -- whether Luke or Driver or other -- is troubling in that it's rather unimaginative. I actually considered, based on the MSW article, that the cyborg is a clone of Luke that has been "cybernated." A whole army of cyborg Luke's. LOL :p

    You'll all be happy to know that there are actually TWO possibilities. Not one, but TWO. Two theories, and they're relatively close, to be honest.

    Vagueness does not = happiness. The possibility that the Luke possibility is "relatively close" is NOT a good thing IMO.

    It's each to their own. Some happy, some annoyed. The original one is the main one, but there's another one, recently thought-of, to add to the impending list.

    They're in relation to one another, these theories. They're not REALLY to do with Luke.

    First one's kind of a rumour. Second one's a theory, man.

    IF we even see more cyborgs -- Chewie with a cybernetic arm, Von Sydow a cyborg and now Luke a cyborg -- then Star Wars will have committed the worst of all crimes by bringing the fans nothing new. Vader and Grievous were both cyborg villains. I would have hoped for something more from Lucas > Arndt > Abrams & Kasdan. I still have some faith in all those creative minds that admire so much but this "revelation" does not bode well IMO.

    BTW- @RemainsOfARisenSith & @Bantha Chaser, I thank you both for your informed answers. :) Hopefully someday soon you can tell us how you know.
