Luke Hypewalker.
This gave me chills
We're really about to get a classic SW film aren't we?
Haha.
I bet RJ doesn't even post from his Twitter!!
Yup.
I think it's safe to say that.. even if RJ wrote something drastically different from what JJ envisioned, JJ came on board because of the POTENTIAL of punished Luke

Haha, it seems a bit innocent for that.
Rian must have really liked Bloodline, which he had a hand in.

It's a great novel and my favorite so far of them all. I was disappointed that several of my friends didn't like it but oh well. Did a lot of great work with Leia and really fleshing out the politics and universe. Can't wait to read the new novel.

Empire are teasing something Star Wars. I'm guessing their next issue will be the annual Star Wars one. We should get some new photos out of it at least.

Very unlikely. Force Friday itself is its own marketing event. Don't expect anything until mid-October, which is when the final Rogue One and only (non teaser) TFA trailer were released.

Many of these promo images had leaked already but some higher quality versions have appeared on the Topps card app. The rest are here.

the praetorian guards around snoke card just looks like someone left a floppy boot in the front of the picture.

Maybe there'll be a running gag where it appears in a different place in each scene.

I think it starts off relatively small but he keeps stretching it 'til its bigger than granpappy Anakin's.
Ooh, interesting. What's she like? What's her backstory?

Interesting. I wasn't expecting that. What's she like?
Princess of Alderaan isn't out here until next week for some reason.

It's been my probably incorrect theory for a while.
I'm only a couple chapters in so far but she's like...ditzy/socially awkward and obsessed with death. Leia is weirded out when she first meets her.
Ooooh! We gonna get Rey doing a Yoda and force lifting the X-wing outta the drink! : )
Maybe a nod to Luke's disillusionment?
"I don't believe it."
"That is why you fail."
I dunno. I had the same thought when I saw that art.
The people who criticized Force Awakens for being too derivative suddenly just sensed a disturbance in the force.
It's fine, I'm probably way off base anyway. Would be funny if Rey pulls it out of the water though.
That would annoy the Mary Sue-ers as well.

We'd better get the story of this X-Wing:
How was it?

Oh shit...I never even saw that image.
It's totally going to happen, isn't it? Luke is going to teach her how to lift the thing.

Maybe he's holding it like a millimetre above the ground. Very carefully.
I like that they're going a bit further with the 'Knight' imagery.
Please not. Seriously. Dont.

I think Luke lifting it out himself after having a change of heart is more likely than Rey lifting it.

First look at Snoke's Star Destroyer: Supremacy.

It's from the Sphero app isn't it? You don't need to worry about spoiler tagging content Lucasfilm have officially released. I thought it had already been posted in here but it seems that was the leaks thread. Long week.

Cool. Also added the engine view.

Everybody needs a life-size Kylo Ren standee. You can't call your house a home without one.

We gonna get brown Jedi outfit wise Luke and black Jedi outfit asskicking Luke in this film.

The specified length is vague. Does it mean length or width?
Because the ship is about four times as wide as it is long with some eyeballing, and that would make it either 15 km long and 60 km wide, or 60 km long and 240 wide...
The "Dreadnaught" ain't big at 8 km, not at all. This? I concede this is big.

Pablo went on Twitter to confirm it means Width.
