Eurobricks forum member Just2Good has revealed that there will be a surprise addition to the summer LEGO Star Wars line up in the form of a Rebel Combat Frigate (set 75158). Supposedly it is based on the animated Rebels series and will include an Ahsoka Tano minifig.

So long as it´s not an ISD or AT AT, all good. That´s all the set numbers used for this year so looks like we are clear of danger.

Tagged Siege Of Lothal on Brickset along with the Vader's TIE Advanced vs. A-wing.  Odds on it’ll have an Ezra as well.  
Really not surprised at this, given the success of both the show, sales on Ghost/Phantom and the current rebels range is missing so many core characters.

Wow these people at Eurobricks are even nerdier than a lot of SW nerds here on BP

listed as retail -limited on brickset.  thinking this is likely a TRU exclusive here in the states.  would also explain why it has not been seen yet.

@jaisonline, I do hope it's the blue Tantive class cruiser.

you had me at it contains a grown up Ahsoka Tano minifig.

 

That is a Corvette / Blockage Runner.

Frigate is bigger like Phoenix Home here:

I might have tried fixing your post at the same time as you.  Please repost it...  That might have been what Jai was going for.

Spelling mistake

I changed the title.  Don't think this is a rumor anymore, not with this much info out there.

Color me blue with excitement.  This is one that I'm sure I will have to pick up.

Meh

I agree.  

Yep, boooo!

 

shoot me 

Well. That's a bummer.

Not a first day buy for this guy. 

What.. did TLG just get in a room and decide "well we obviously haven't disappointed the Lego community enough with AoH this year... any ideas how we can up the anti?"

Now I'm a pretty avid fan of the show but where did that ship come from???  Some good figs mind.

Hmm whats next a UCS Ja Ja sculpture or bringing back the planet series

Play Set Ship, like the Imperial Assault Carrier.  Brings back Ezra and Chopper into production adds Asoka and Sato.  Think all of the Rebels sets have prioritised play over build.  
 

C'mon, it's not that bad. Sure, it looks nothing like the ship from the show and the colors are all wrong and it's basically a log with weird folding wings and....Who am I kidding, it sucks. Has cool mini figs though.

Don't like the ship

minifigures are good

I'm already thinking ahead to 50% off clearance at Wal-Mart.

Word on the street is that it's a possible TRU exclusive, so it will live on at an inflated price...
