Looks like Lando gets a flaw, but Kallus does not.

Why do you think so? What looks different?

It's stated in the pre-order synopsis that Lando comes with one and Kallus doesn't.

From the Lando listing: "This miniature is accompanied by a unit card, his three signature command cards, a flaw card, and six upgrade cards that give you even more ways to use him in battle."

From the Kallus listing: "Beyond this, seven upgrade cards—including his J-19 Bo-Rifle—invite you to outfit Agent Kallus for battle, while his three signature command cards help you explore new strategies as you seek to quell rebellion."

Lando's listing explicitly mentions a flaw card, whereas Kallus' does not.

Yeah, we got those descriptions a few weeks ago from some distributor website or something. Basically, Lando gets a Flaw card and Kallus gets his Armament card and then they both get the same 6 upgrades.

Forgive a new player:

 

Maul/Anakin drop on 11/20 (?)

CIS/GAR Specialists are 1/21 (?)

Are these rumored to also drop Q1 next year?

Anakin and Maul are correct, the Specialists are still unknown unless there are rumors I haven't heard and these guys(Lando and Kallus) haven't even been officially announced in a article. But Q1 is a reasonable bet, perhaps Feb/March?

Specialists were announced in post GenCon article. Upcoming page says January 2021. https://www.fantasyflightgames.com/en/news/2020/8/1/heroes-and-legends-1/

Sorry when I said "these guys" I had meant Lando and Kallus, as they haven't had an official article yet.

There used to be an artform in deciphering when things got announced, when they were loaded on a boat, when they hit the cart, as to when they might actually be available.

But now I don't think we have a clue (crystal balls were destroyed in the purge) and we get what they tell us or what we hear from distributors and sellers (which is always bad when we're dealing with FFG)

And yet another reason why I don't regret selling my commission. It is literally easier for me to track down vintage OOP metal minis on eBay, than to get stuff new from FFG.

So I wonder what SWL79 is going to be.

I’d love to see IG-88(s)!

I remember they said 4 new Civil War releases were coming before, perhaps SWL79 and a possible SWL81 will be a Rebel and Empire release to match with these?

Weird that Lando gets a flaw and not Kallus, considering that Lando's flaw was resolved before he joined the rebels and Kallus acted as a double agent for much longer.

It might more revolve around the fact Lando is a big Gambler. Guy gets himself into trouble quite often. Gambled away the Falcon and somehow got the Falcon impounded.

I think I recall Lando being described as someone who can benefit you a lot or hamper you majorly.

“They told me they fixed it!!”

I’m so curious to see what Kallus does, really enjoyed his arc in Rebels and hoping he brings something new to the 80-100 point range of commanders that Veers/Krennic/Iden don’t already.
