From the New Essential Guide to Vehiclas & Vessels
"Jango Fett first acquired Slave I during a dramatic escape from the prison planet Oovo IV. As he fledauthorities, Fett stumbled across a hangar full of prototype Firespray-class attack ships on loan to the prison for testing. Without hesitation, the bounty hunter stole one of the starships and turned her weapons on the remaining Firesprays before they could leave the hangar. For many years Slave I was the only surviving Firespray, although KSE [Kuat Systems Engineering] eventually revived the line around the time of the battle of Yavin."
So as far as continuity, the ship could theoretically be available since Kuat has put it into production.
Worth noting is also that in its basic setup the Firespray only had a pair of twin blaster cannons, so even if it is in JTL you are going to spend a lot of work modding it to have any firepower.

Since the rebel base on Yavin IV is empty (except for some imperials), and you can get death star fragments.
Then, yes, the battle of Yavin has happened already (but the Empire has not yet struck back by attacking Hoth)

Why do people act like boba/jango were the only people in the galaxy to own a firespray? They didn't design the ship, there fore it stands to reason that whatever company did design it, they likely did so with the intention of building more than one. So it stands to reason that the firespray model can be in JtL and not break any continuity or SW lore.
I don't recall ever reading anywhere that the slave 1 was some ultra secret prototype that Jango or whoever stole and subsequently destroyed the plans for it so there could never be another; I mean honestly.

I see no reason why Slave 1 should not be in the game. Whats strange is the people who get foaming at the mouth angry whenever this ship is mentioned.

the firespray was a limited edition ship not mass produced. Someone said that Kuat started production on it again. I dont know about it, but i know that originally there was only a few of them made.
