In the latest Force For Change video, Star Wars director JJ Abrams reveals what look a lot like the z-95T (picture above) from the Star Wars EU.
The video, which is to raise awareness and funds for the Star Wars Charity, is a great cause and a mouth-wateringly awesome look at the new rebel fighter, including the pilot… oh and check out the little droid at the end. Look familiar?
The Force is strong here…

Marc is a self-confessed nerd. Ever since seeing Star Wars for the first time around 1979 he’s been an unapologetic fan of the Wars and still believes, with Clone Wars and now Underworld, we are yet to see the best Star Wars. He’s a dad of two who now doesn’t have the time (or money) to collect the amount of toys, comics, movies and books he once did, much to the relief of his long-suffering wife. In the real world he’s a graphic designer. He started Following the Nerd because he was tired of searching a million sites every day for all the best news that he loves and decided to create one place where you can go to get the whole lot. Secretly he longs to be sitting in the cockpit of his YT-1300 Corellian Transport ship with his co-pilot Chewie, roaming the universe, waiting for his next big adventure, but feels just at home watching cartoons with his kids….
