REBEL GENESIS: A CRITICAL VICTORY...


As a lead-in to STAR WARS REBELS, AFICIONADO presents a series of images featuring characters, events and history linked to the ultimate creation of the Rebel Alliance against the Empire.

Overcoming both incredible odds and at first thought superior enemy firepower, the brave pilots of the Rebel Alliance's fledgling X and Y-wing fighter squadrons make a breakthrough stand against the Galactic Empire, winning their first major victory against evil. And they'd truly been underestimated by their opponents- their ships and weaponry ultimately proving well-equipped, their heroic pilots, many having defected from the esteemed Imperial Space Academy, taking bigger risks and proving better skilled in operating battered ships that might be old but prove far more manoeuvrable in space combat than the technologically advanced TIE fighters.

Adding to this immense Rebel victory, the Empire would incredulously, shockingly, lose their schematic plans to the years in construction top-secret weapon project Death Star, an immense planet-killing battle station, of which the Alliance's pluckiest leader, Princess Leia Organa, is now on her way to intercept them. Bitten once, however, the Empire will not forget its first major encounter with their new enemy, of which Grand Moff Tarkin and the Emperor's evil servant, Darth Vader, intent on recovering the plans, are more determined and ruthless than ever in their quest to crush this Rebellion before it can gather any further momentum...
