You know what would be really cool is if a jedi gets a TEF in space, don't know how, but if they are capable of getting one, when they do, all the sudden out of the blue comes slave 1 with a fleets of ties behind it. Oh yeah that would be sooo cool.

Hey buddy, after Return of the Jedi a bounty hunter helps out boba fett from the sarlac pit... Then he gets the old Slave I modified so its faster, stronger, better paint job and its called Slave IV
the Fetts ship the Slave I is too unique to be manufacured, the YT-1300 WAS manufacured by a company Han Solo just modified his, added the killer fast hyperdrive, he was the one that ADDED the TURRETS, so when you first buy aYT-1300 it shouldent auto-maticly get the gunner turrets because that is an addon.
When I played TIE Fighter I had to stop a few YT-1300 from escaping, well they had no weapons, they were just really fast transport ships

lol, I thought it was funny when the BH's cried for Firespray to be a BH only ship.... just because one BH has it, dont make it a BH ship... whatever ship you own is a BH ship (if your BH) whatever weapon your carrying is a BH Weapon...
BH's kill for money, thats what they are, you could be a Master Pistoleer and do that. lol 
I have a bad feeling that there gonna add Firespray over the Skipray Blastboat anyhow, but everyone knows they'll get pwned by the blastboats (and it's in a few screenies)
(and it's in a few screenies)and the last rebel ship will most likely be the B-Wing.. even though it's breaking continuity.

The life of a bounty hunter requires constant travel. Wanted criminals hide in every corner of the galaxy and searching for such quary necessitates a powerful and well equipped starship. The notorious bounty hunter Jango Fett, who became the template for the clone soldiers used by the Confederacy of Independent Systems, pursued his prey in a modified starship called Slave I. After Jango's death at the battle of Geonosis, Boba Fett used the starship to follow in his father's footsteps. Jango Fett first acquired Slave I during a dramatic escape from the prison planet Ocvo IV, while on a hunt related to the deadly criminal cult known as the Bando Gora. As he fled authorities 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. After stealing Slave I, Jango subjected the vehicle to a long series of modifications, most focusing on the weapons systems. The vehicle's standard twin blaster cannons received an enhanced targeting computer and variable power regulator. Jango added concealed laser cannons; these weapons were less accurate than the blaster cannons, but they had a rapid recharge rate that allowed Jango to evelop his enemies in a hailstorm of energy blasts. A naval minelaywer and retractable torpedo launcher armed with guided projectiles completed the early Slave I's arsenal. Four Kuat X-F-16 power generators and F-31 drive engines consume much of the Slave's interior. Jango completely remodeled the interior, adding small crew quarters for long journeys and installing additional navigational equipment in the cockpit. The patrol craft was originally equipped with standard prisoner cages, but Jango replaced these with narrow wall cabinets for up to six prisoners. While in Boba Fett's care, Slave I evolved still further. Boba replaced the concealed laser cannons with ion cannons for disabling valuable starships. Proton torpedoes or tracking devices frequently supplanted the guided missiles used by Jango. Boba also integrated a turret mounted tractor beam projector and an illegal sensor jamming system. Boba even redesigned one of the coffinlike cells to hold Force-Users (Whom he had an understandable hatred for).
From The NEW Essential Guide to Vehicles and Vessels (typed without looking. Forgive typos.)
Thats the deal, boys and girls, thats theme. That book was written by Hayden Blackman, yeah, Shug Ninx as he's known around here. Thats the Firesprays's OFFICIAL story from LucasFilms, post EpII. All that predates EpII about the Slave I's history is defunct and garbage now.
The Firespray is in existance, in small quantity. It -could- pop up in the galaxy but SHOULD be limited to 2 at the most.

We better not see it, in Star Wars:Bounty Hunter Jango destroys most of the other Firespray Ships. They were Old, SLow and Outdated, I seriously doubt they'll be in the game. Unless a DEV takes control of Boba again.

Obviously, Han Solo's YT-1300 and Jango/Boba Fett's Firespray were both highly modified by their owners. The stock ships we get in JTL should not come with all of that. Every YT-1300 in the game should not be as fast as the Millenium Falcon. If there are Firesprays in JTL, they should be "stock", with just the twin cannons and light armor. Does anyone know if shipwrights will be able to modify existing ships, or add extra components during creation? If so, it would not be beyond reason to have players acquire a basic Firespray (as they are currently in production at this point in the timeline) and modify it, or have a shipwright be able to build a YT-1300 with laser cannon turrets, if the components are added during creation. Such things may be costly, the components being rare drops or expensive faction perks, therfore making ships that even come close to being a Millenium Falcon or Slave I will still be rare. But, the basic chassis will be readily available. The only ships that should come fully loaded are the warships - the faction-based fighters. You want a Firespray? You should be able to get a Firespray, but its gonna take a Master Shipwright, and alot of adventuring and looting for components before you can modify it to be like the Slave I. Jango didnt modify his while healing BF in the cantina.
