Storage for this thing sucks. I had to do something new just to store this cause its super bulky. I wish the wings folded just for storage purposes but I get it.
It's definitely pronounced "Zi" As in the greek letter Ξ, or ξ. Everyone else in comments is confusing it for the greek letter Chi which is just "X or χ".
It should be a ks sound for the initial consonant. Though the i vowel at least here in America tends to be pronounced like 'eye,' not like 'pea.' Just think about how you'd say phi φ and psi ψ.
Honestly, I feel like this could have just as easily been the Tie Echelon from Galaxy’s Edge, and now I’m sure they’re never going to release that model in-game due to the similarities. I am mainly a Tie collector, but I’m probably still going to pick this up so I can run FO swarms.
I'm think it's pronounced "kai", like the Greek letter. Mostly because of the lambda shuttle of the same series that is named after the Greek letter lambda.
Both "Ixy" and "Zhee" are incorrect, my friend...if it was a Chinese ship, it would be "Zhee," but because the shuttles use Greek letters (e.g. Lambda, Upsilon, etc.), it's clearly the Greek XI, which is pronounced "Ksee." Sorry to go all linguistics geek on you here, but them's the rules! ;)
This ones right up there with the IG-2000 for least appealing ship design. **Amazing job from FFG as usual, just lazy job from someone at Lucas film who designed this.
"Chi" class shuttle. Got to try out a list for it and it is a pretty decent carrier.
She as Xixor or Shee-Zor. And the back of the dorsal wing is clearly where you can plug more ram into it.
Xi Class Shuttle paper shredder! Another great product idea

From this point the Sensor Buoys will be known as Yeah and Babba.
Just wanted to say your videos have been really helpful for getting into the game! Thanks so much for all the info and recommendations!
Would love Carrion Spike as a Huge in X-Wing, but as a Small (assume CS is Arquitens size?) in Armada, too.
It's funny. Hairy Nick also called them "sensor bois". That is officially what they're called in my head now

Also Crabbok: *Tears box to shreds* 🤣
I need to start a first order list!
Where are you finding these? I still can't find any in the Tampa area

Now I’m pronouncing it Sigh-class.
Can't wait to get my hands on mine but our store isn't getting them in on time, so might not get mine until the 1st.
I like when it's pronounced Xi

XI=zye
Definitely this, not zee.
crabbok, do you need new xacto blades? It almost hurt to watch you cut so slowly
I've used this one ALOT - it's got bits of glue, paint, and probably more than a few skin cells bonded to it! ha ha
Great video! I love this ship very much 🤩 Hope to get mine soon))

Very nice model
Man this video is early how early do you film I woke up so I can help a friend by staying in line for PlayStation 5
I like this addition! I do wish the wings folded though

I wanted resistance to show more of the first order like different shuttles but it was pretty bland
Call it Eleven
These new boxes are ridiculous.
It’s from the Greek alphabet. It is pronounced “Zi” or “Zī”.
It hurt my soul to hear Xizor’s name mispronounced like that. 😉
It’s pronounced ‘Eleven’ (XI) - class. 🤣
