That would require actual development, and not just pumping different color plastic, in the same old molds.
Bandai release schedule

They could get two kits out of the bug-eye droid. Just thinking ahead.

Some Gonks and a Treadwell would be great too.

You guys really need Bandai to make a mouse droid? 1 RC car + 1 meatloaf pan + 1 can of black spray paint = mouse droid!

In 1/72 scale!

A couple possible clues about ships and figures in Episode IX. We can speculate which ones will end up being Bandai kits. I would say three for sure -- new (old) Resistance fighter, new TIE, and new trooper figure. Contains some light spoilers (could also be BS):

or based on The Last Jedi product line....
we get a recolored X-Wing repop in 1/72 and 1/144 vehicle collection
a repop of the First Order Trooper with an alternate helmet
and Revell puts out non-scale versions of the Tie Fighter and Resistance A-Wing "toys" and also adds the new First Order Tie Interceptor to the non scale lineup
and we spend years after hoping Bandai might release the Kylo Ren's tie and the new First Order Tie Interceptor in 1/72
..and then instead they will release more previously undone OT subjects like the Tie Bomber

The Knights of Ren look like they should be singing "Scaramouche! Scaramouche! Will you do the Fandangoooo!"

Are those Tie Fighters concepts from Episode 7. I think I remember seeing them in the Art of Book...
Also I wonder if Bandai will reveal any new kits at SWC in a few weeks.

Yes, a similar TIE was in the Art of Force Awakens book. I couldn't really tell what kind of dish was on the Falcon, but there's some kind of fuzzy blob there. Looks like it might be rectangular again.
From what I understand, the Falcon's dish will be a triangular shape.

nope...spherical. here's the actual pic on location....
Ahh- memories!
My high school's senior prank was stealing one of those spheres from a local gas station and mounting on the roof of the school building (Class of 76!)

THAT's where my meatloaf pan went to!
Kudos to you, Soulsaman. Extreme dedication to a gag is the hallmark of genuis!

I wonder- does the perfect grade Mouse Droid include the tiny puddle of oil it leaves when Chewbacca roars at it?
