LEGO teases another LEGO Star Wars 25th anniversary set and minifigure!
Posted by CapnRex101,
LEGO.com has been updated with information about the 25th anniversary of LEGO Star Wars, featuring pages about the unique minifigures available with 75379 R2-D2 and 75387 Boarding the Tantive IV.
However, a third page alludes to another exclusive minifigure and displays a silhouette of their associated set, which appears to be a Sith Infiltrator, including Anakin Skywalker and Qui-Gon Jinn minifigures.
From the brief description of the character as a 'Rebel with a cause', as well as symbols used to highlight this character's specific qualities, I think we can make an educated guess about their identity...
Star Wars obviously has no shortage of rebels, but two of the symbols beside this character can be compared with those beside Darth Malak and Fives to reveal their meanings. From the below screenshots we can see that the lightning bolt represents a cybernetic character, while the heart indicates loyalty. The meaning of the star in the above screenshot is unknown.
I have some ideas about a rebel with cybernetic implants who would consider themselves loyal, but will leave it to the speculation of the comments!
Who do you think this mystery minifigure will be and are you looking forward to a new Sith Infiltrator? Let us know in the comments.

Finally a Saw Gerrera fig ;)
I heard that it is saw or late rebels ezra
Saw Or Ezra, I'll Take Either
Isn't the old Luke Skywalker Jedi knight minifigure with the yellow-tone skin?
A rebel with cybernetic implants? I first thought of Lobot. But A Saw Gerrera minifig would be nice given how predominant he is in Star Wars.
Hype for Rogue One Saw!
Saw would be interesting due to be one of the few characters that has appeared across different media: Clone Wars, Rogue One, Rebels, Bad Batch, Andor and Jedi Fallen Order.
i emailed them abt this and they said "we dont care" and proceeded to make an article abt it.
The silhouette unfortunately looks very squarish
SAW for sure
Finally a James Dean minifigure.
Biggs Darklighter exclusive minifig!
That silhouette - Serenity from Firefly? And a Jayne minifigure? Complete with cunning hat?!
Will he be Rogue One or Clone Wars Saw?
Is anybody exhausted about teasers, announcements, reveals...? Everyday Lego is announcing something, which becomes annoying, because they are more focused on marketing than on the quality of the sets
The two most likely guesses for the "rebel with a cause" figure are either Ezra Bridger from Rebels S3 or Saw Gerrera - either of which I'd be really excited for! The heart icon would suggest Ezra, but the lightning would suggest Saw, so not sure which it will be.
I don't think it's Saw Gerrera, Lego has an armor piece that would be perfect for it. Would be happy to be wrong, since this is about the only 25th-anniversary set I'm quasi-interested in, since the Sith Infiltrator is an awesome design.
The smaller figure is almost certainly either Harry Potter or Frodo Baggins.

No!
The quality of most sets is amazing. And the teasers, reveals, and announcements are quite exciting and fun!
In terms of the OT, Lobot isn’t technically a Rebel, as Bespin is an independent commercial mining operation…until Han leads the Empire to their doorstep. Luke is, however, a Rebel, has a cybernetic hand, and is loyal to a fault when he abandons his training to go give Leia, Lando, and Chewie someone to rescue.
Seeing as how they’re mixing completely random chase figures with sets this year, I’m voting for the crying Rancor keeper with the Sith Infiltrator..

I disagree, but I think LEGO could distribute announcements more evenly. Rather than having waves of sets from multiple themes revealed around the start and end of each month, as they are currently, announcements should be separated to some degree, so all themes receive the attention they deserve.
I’d laugh if it’s Finn… He is kinda a Rebel without a purpose though so probably not…

Looks like the silhouette of him but, he has been made into a figure before. And Saw is rumoured to be using Finn's hair piece.
@Trigger_
It would most likely not be clone wars Saw because he didn't have any cybernetic implants in the show.
Well obviously it's that lynchpin character Jedi Bob!
It does say in the blurb six limited edition minifigures…
“…we’re releasing a big batch of special sets in our 25th year, including SIX limited-edition LEGO Star Wars minifigures”
Ngl my first thought was Finn

The list of the six are:
Saw Gerrera
Darth Malak
Young Leia (Kenobi show)
Fives
Cal Kestis
Infinites Darth Vader
@Brickalili
Jedi Bob is rumoured to be getting his own set this year: 75388: Jedi bob's starfighter.

OMG! You're totally right, without him, the Republic would have lost the first battle of the Clone Wars! and wasn't he the one who turned Galen Erso against the Empire after escaping Order 66? He basically was the unseen catalyst for Rogue One and 4/5/6!
;-)
Saw Gerrera ??? !!! Yes please
It's obviously Geordi La Forge.
Dare we hope for the infamous Rebel Friend, the most important LEGO Star Wars character ever?
I'll use my vast Star Wars knowledge to guess that it's Lt. Commander Data.
@Murdoch17:
Surely you're confusing him with Tag and Bink.
@Maxbricks14
Hahahaha, really? I’m kinda torn over whether that’s funny, that Lego would play along with the joke like that, or not because they’ve based a whole set around it which makes it feel a bit…overdone
It's Wilrow Hood!
Yes! It's about time I've been wanting an updated Sith infiltrator for a long time..
Young Leia.

that was the first thing i thought of, but the cybernetic kind of gives away saw gerrara.

i actually predict that jedi bob is the final 25th anniversary character (leia, cal, fives, malak, saw, bob)
and that the jedi starfighter will be plo koon's or ahsoka's, and he will be thrown in as the bonus fig.
I know it's not him, but I would love a george lucas minifig

Rogue One Saw please
LIES! Deceptions! Bor Gullet will know the truth.
Of course, when one sees a Lego SW minifigure, one tends to lose one's mind.
NO WAY!!! I'M SO HYPED!
We're getting a James Dean minifig!!

Does it come with his Porsche 550 Spyder which he named a name I can't say here? I heard it's a killer car!
(...too soon?)

I heard that was also the nickname for James, himself.
In other depressing news, R.I.P. Carl Weathers. I hope heaven has all the free Burger King refills and Mandalorian protectors that you could want.
