New Toy Listing Confirms Kylo Ren Will Have a TIE Fighter in The Last Jedi!

Render from Star Wars: Battlefront II

 

A new listing on the Barnes & Noble site confirms one of the rumors about Kylo Ren having his own TIE Fighter in Star Wars: The Last Jedi. Read on for the details.

 

 

The toy listing has been found via Reddit member ahcahttan. You can still see the listings on the toy section of the Barnes & Noble site here and here.

 

The toy in question is a Deluxe Pop by Funko. And while the first listing is pretty vague, the second directly reveals that Kylo Ren will have a TIE Fighter in The Last Jedi.

 

 

As you remember a few weeks ago another toy listing revealed that we will see a newly designed TIE in The Last Jedi (image below). The info matched with a description by MSW and the conclusion was made that this is indeed how Kylo Ren’s spaceship will look like in The Last Jedi.

 

 

The new listing on Barns&Nobel officially confirms all that.

 

It is still a mystery though why on the toy’s base of the TIE we see the Rebels symbol. You can clearly see the First Order and the Empire symbols on the other spaceships in the set. Could there be more to this TIE than meets the eye? My personal guess is that this is just a mistake, but who knows. What do you think?

    “But this shocking act of patricide didn’t make the former Ben Solo feel stronger – somehow he felt weaker. Kylo Ren had hoped to end the conflicts that caused him so such pain, but found he remained at war with himself, more lost than ever.”

    One possible way to destroy the last Jedi is to do so from within by faking a return to the good side. Although, Kylo Ren would risk returning to the good side for real by trying this. Especially if he falls in love with a certain Rey of sunshine. Awwwww!

      In the last act….
      Kylo: No, Rey I am your love interest …. I sent you that Valentine card.
      Rey: That’s not true… that’s impossible…. Aren’t you gay? I thought that was why you seemed so angsty, with the whole – gay but can’t tell your parent’s because you didn’t know how they would react – thing. If not, my bad, but I’m with the ex stormtrooper now and … oh crap I’m falling down a long shaft. Noooooooooooooooooo.

        “Variety: I loved the developing romance between your character, Finn and Rey in “The Force Awakens.” How is that romance evolving in the next chapter?

        Boyega: I mean, we didn’t establish a romance in seven; we never played it that way. Daisy and I, we’re friends.

        Variety: So there’s no romance?

        Boyega: Yes, Finn and Rey – they’re just friends. Finn is a storm trooper, so he doesn’t really know what’s going on. So the romance thing is something that’s going to be interesting in the next installment. It’s not going to go the way you think it’s going to go.”

          “It’s not going to go the way you think it’s going to go.” That right there sure sounds like Rey and Kylo are gonna fall in love with each other. Maybe that’s the twist?

    Official databank updated in February 2017 with these new lines:

    “Kylo swore his loyalties were only to Snoke. But he was intrigued when he captured Rey, a Jakku scavenger whose Force abilities were raw but very powerful. A mysterious connection seemed to link the two.”

    “He sensed his destiny and Rey’s were somehow intertwined, but how?”

    “But this shocking act of patricide didn’t make the former Ben Solo feel stronger – somehow he felt weaker. Kylo Ren had hoped to end the conflicts that caused him so such pain, but found he remained at war with himself, more lost than ever.”

    Screenshot used by the official site to show the relation/mysterious connection between Kylo and Rey:

    Kylo will be with the Resistance at the end of 8, redemption arc is coming for Kylo because of Rey, he will become loyal to Rey and no more to Snoke…

    Old news?

    Just want to thank whoever was responsible for fixing the ad problem on here since it works great for me now. Best it’s been since I started posting!

    As for the TIE, I don’t think it’s quite as unoriginal as the ones in TFA but it’s still a knockoff and would prefer they do something a little different like in R1 with the TIE Striker. Especially since we are three decades plus removed from that film and can afford to really push the limit.

    It’s not like the SW galaxy is against innovation and if anything the Empire would be pouring every credit into new designs.

      I agree with you on the TIE’S in TFA. I mean I liked the paint job, but really no other new vehicles. R1, A movie that took place before ANH had more to offer on that front via the Tie Striker and the U-Wing which the latter is my personal favorite.

      So yeah, it is disappointing. I’d go more into it, but given how some members of the fandom utterly hate when criticism of any kind is slugged towards this franchise, I’ll stop here. But what I will say is that I find it odd how the FO after 30 years have barely got anything new, outside Kylo’s shuttle and new TIE, along with a Starkiller base. But priorities, I guess. At least the NR kind of had an excuse with the whole faux peace. Heck, the updated technology could have been a cool way to separate the battle without it being gallactic Civil War diet edition. But that is another discussion. 🙂
