If you look at the X-Wing and pilot from the Force for Change promo with JJ you’ll see that the engine housings are a lighter grey color and the pilot has a white helmet:Īll I’m getting at is I believe the scenes in the trailer that flip from Oscar’s character to the X-Wing formation skimming over the water aren’t directly connected, as I believe his character “Poe” is flying the black X-Wing.Įven though the sound connects in the trailer scene, I believe this was done through editing. If you watch the actual trailer you’ll see that the fog/moisture on the windows fades away and you can see that the engine housings are a dark color past the silver nacelle trim (just like in the spy shot above): which might be a hint that there is something unique about it) (It’s also interesting that it says “Poe Dameron in HIS X-wing”. If you look at the recently released trading cards from the teaser you’ll see that the X-Wing pilot “Poe” (Oscar Isaac) has a black and red helmet – but this particular shot for the card was taken with the windows fogged up on the side of the X-Wing. Most of us are aware that spy shots were taken of the black and orange/red X-Wing at the RAF base a few months ago: Nevertheless here’s a very good post from our Cantina boards with some impressive detective work…
