You can decide that for yourself if you want, but the Devs are the ones who said the first TLJ toon would be released in support of the theatrical release this december.

So they say it isn't.

That's not exactly what was said, Woodroward.
What was said was, "Our first character from Star Wars™: The Last Jedi™ will be making an appearance before the movie comes out in December. This is going to be a variant of a character that fans of Star Wars are already familiar with, so stay tuned for more details."
Kylo Ren (Unmasked) definitely fits the bill of being released before December. Kylo Ren (Unmasked) has the healing scar from the wound he received in the very final moments of TFA, and he is flying the TIE Silencer that makes its first appearance in SW:TLJ.

You're right. I'm wrong. I was the one who was mixing up two different posts. What they said about rey was:

You can look forward to playing as Rey (Scavenger) in her Hero’s Journey event, in support of the worldwide theatrical release of Star Wars™: The Last Jedi this December.


So it is more or less confirmed to be next month around the 15th.

Rogue one we got Bistan as login toon in December so I would expect a random nuff nuff character with 12 seconds of screen time to pop up before Rey.

I would go for Rose !!!

I doubt it. Next month. BB8 will return for the first time after 3 months just like all other legendary toons. Rey's event will be immediately after.

They said the FIRST TLJ toon will be in game to support the movies theatrical release in december.

They didn't say that would be Rey, and all the signs really point to it not being her.

Uh...aren’t Kylo Unmasked and the new FOTP the first toons from TLJ?

No, they're from TFA as that's where we saw him take his mask off etc.

I'm pretty sure Unmasked Kylo Ren is from Last Jedi. He took his mask off in Force Awakens, but he only became scarred at the end. The scars on his character model look too healed to be from the end of Force Awakens.

(Admittedly, I haven't looked too closely at his scars for a little while so I might be misremembering)

75/100 for FOST been farming since bb8 was first announced never had bad rng like this with any other character except shore trooper which was painful. I can't wait for bb8 to come back but when.

No word yet! But you’re close. 3 hard nodes a day- with that bad rng out of the way you got it. Also even if event was dropped by surprise tomorrow you would still have time. That won’t happen though- you got this.

...The prediction of needing vets at 7* is wrong.
Wouldn't it suck to struggle through and just get FO ready in time for bb8 and then discover you need 2 more 7* that are just as tough to get as fost?

*Channeling Keanu Reeves* "Whoa. Deja Vu."

I hope they don't get ahead of themselves and release a 12 second screentime character, they should pace themselves and start with a 5 or if they are feeling saucy maybe a 7 second screentime character.

For the BB-8 Event im hoping to have my fost at 7-star by then but does gear 10 kylo gear 10 fotfp gear 9 phasma gear 8 foo and fost work for beating tier 7?

No BB-8 event for December? :(
