In Star Wars: The Force Awakens, Kylo Ren had his own command shuttle that kind of took inspiration from the Emperor's spaceship.

Well according to a new leak, his spaceship in Star Wars: The Last Jedi is going to look very different. This new ship takes inspiration from Darth Vader's own TIE Fighter.

As spotted by Making Star Wars, a German hobby website prematurely posted an image/listing for a toy version of Kylo Ren's spaceship. The action figure is a part of the Hot Wheels range of vehicles.

You can look at the image in the link I provided above. Disney usually doesn't like when leaked images get posted online...

Anyway, Kylo Ren's ship in Star Wars: The Last Jedi looks like a cross between Darth Vader's TIE Fighter and a TIE Interceptor. I must say, this ship looks far better than the command shuttle he had in Star Wars: The Force Awakens.

It is also an indication that Kylo Ren will actually use this ship in a space battle. The character didn't use his command shuttle for combat in the previous movie.

Elsewhere in the article, it says that Kylo Ren may not wear his iconic mask as often in the new movie. Adam Driver gets to show his face more often in The Last Jedi.

This makes sense since the heroes already know his identity.

He was previously known as Ben Solo who's the son of both Han Solo and Leia Organa. With Han Solo now gone, it's up to Leia and Luke Skywalker to try and get Ben Solo away from the dark side.

Star Wars: The Last Jedi releases in North America on December 15th, 2017. It serves as a direct sequel to Star Wars: The Force Awakens. It could be the highest grossing movie of 2017 judging by fan anticipation.
