    Ok so we know the Falcon, new X-wings, an Imperial Drop ship, new Tie Fighters and a new Star Destroyer are in the movie as we seen these in the teasers. But what about other ships?

    1.Ok so we see a Imperial Drop Ship with stormtroopers ready to go out as a ramp drops. But what type of ship? A. A type of Lambda shuttle B. A type of Tie Troop Landing craft C. A Troop Transport D. A Gamma Class Assault Shuttle

    A.Lambda Shuttle Transport
    Ship09.jpg
    B.Tie Troop Landing Craft
    Ship08.jpg
    C.A Troop Transport
    Ship07.jpg
    D.Gamma Class Assault Shuttle
    GammaClassAssaultShuttle.jpg

    My money is on a Lambda type shuttle transport, but would be cool to see a Tie troop landing craft though.

    2.Some kind of new rebel concept art ship, but is it used in TFA? Back part looks fugly.. A mix of a B-wing, and a A-wing.
    Ship02.jpg

    3.What is this hunk of junk? My guess this is on Jakku.
    Ship01.jpg

    4.New Tie fighter that looks different from the other new Tie Fighters?
    A.New Tie Fighter
    Tie01.jpg
    B.Standard New Tie Fighter
    WhiteWingedTieFighter.jpg

    You can clearly see the difference of the front of the Tie fighters in both pictures. In ANH Darth Vader had a special Tie fighter, so who's Tie fighter is this, I am thinking it is Kylo Ren's. Finn and Poe steal this one to escape!

    4.Rebel fleet.
    A.Ships from battle of Endor.
    Nebulon-B Frigate
    Mon Calamari Cruiser
    A-Wing
    Corellian Gunship
    B-Wing
    CC-7700 Frigate
    Assault Frigate
    Liberator Cruiser
    CC-9600 Frigate
    Dauntless Cruiser
    Bulwark Battlecruiser
    Medical Frigate
    X-Wing
    Y-Wing
    RebelFleet.png

    So will the Rebels still be using these big bulk ships?

    Any ships anyone else can find, do post them.

    i feel like the ST era ships we've seen so far are really similar to the OT era ships, especially when considering the difference between the PT and OT era ships. hopefully they've got more than the modified OT ships on the books because, so far, i'm not terribly impressed...

    I thought about that ship, that has the name Falcon pod. Suggests that it comes out of the Falcon, like the shuttle pod in the back of the ship Ghost from the cartoon series Rebels.

    Wonder how they would hide that inside the Falcon? :confused:
    I don't think it will fit under the floorboards. .

    I dunno but from this picture you can kinda see the pod.... Under where the engines are where the black space area is, looks like a garage with a ship inside?

    I don't know where you got that pic but the top pic is Finn and Poe escaping. Poe it's piloting while Finn mans the gun. They're not two types of TIEs.

    is that the back of the TIE? i was wondering if that was a different model too; i didn't think TIE's had rotating guns, or even room for a gunner! lol

    MSW said Finn and Poe double up in a TIE and I guess the new ones have rotating guns.

    Then its s different type of Tie fighter, I agree with you that its Finn manning the gun while Poe flying. But its a different Tie though, why cant it be two different Tie fighters one type one sitter and another a two sitter.

    I think @Greg Kirby is right about that TIE being a different model.
    Tie01.jpg
    Notice the wheel like things right up against the solar panel wings, and the lasers seem to be firing from below the pod, unlike the other TIEs we see.

    I was thinking those were the things that hold it in place while not being used and they broke off when they stole the TIE.

    Wouldn't that be a little counterintuitive if the fighter can just rip them off if say someone ... steals it?
