Anyone else hoping that this guys clan:

Show up at some point as Original Mandalorians who have been slowly building up and living on Dxun for 1000s of years, waiting for the right time to make a triumphant return to Mandalore?

Fun episode.

Given the state of Onderon I doubt anyone's hiding on Dxun. I'm not even sure Dxun exists in the new canon.

A good one this week. Very cool looking whilst having plenty to dig into.

Really can't see the Phantom II fitting in the Ghost. But we'll see. Next week looks very interesting!

So do we now have the 1st 3 faction ship??

Fenn Rau is now a Rebel, so they can have a Fang, and there are Imperial Mandalorians, so they can have a Fang.

Fang Fighters for everyone!

Like Oprah

Not totally convinced Fenn Rau is fully a Rebel... I don't think he'll betray the group(especially to the empire now that they've murdered his men), but I think his time as a rebel is limited. He considers himself first and foremost a Mandolorian, maybe they'll work together to rescue mandolore, and then simply part ways (Rau would probably supply the rebels as a thank you for helping rescue mandolore from the empires clutches). Also Fenn Rau leading mandolore would be pretty neat. Who knows, maybe he'll be the one to best Maul and restore any honor they've felt they lost when they were ruled by Maul. Speaking of which, I wonder if we'll get our offshoot story of Maul chasing down whatever he saw in the holocron. (Which honestly Rebels could use one or two episodes like that, I realize ghost crew is main, but so was Ashoka/Anakin, and it was nice to catch up with what was going on with Rex,Mace, or Fives, etc. every once and awhile.)

Ah, and the Phantom II is armed just like the old one, 2 front cannons and a turret, although the turret placememnt is much less optimal.

Well looks like the Phantom II has forward facing guns at the very least. I'd be very interested how they will get it to work with the existing Ghost, unless they decide to release it as an ace pack down the line the same way we have the Heroes of the Resistance.

Also, I truly hope "Phantom II" doesn't ever get plugged into the Ghost like the original did, it would look stupid.

I Can't wait to see rebel Fenn Rau. Also, I truly hope "Phantom II" doesn't ever get plugged into the Ghost like the original did, it would look stupid.

Check the preview for the next episode It gives the Ghost a dorsal airplane like fin.

Any chance of some screen grabs showing the weapons & docking, for us poor souls who won't get to see the episodes until 6+mths time at the DVD release (if we're lucky and Disney waits as long as usual ) ?

Cheers

I was wrong avout the turret placement, it's not optimal but there are two, so it doesn't matter that much:

Thanks for those...hmmm, so not so much turrets as 'swivel' cannons, which look like they might cover the rear and one side arc each...so yet another variation on arcs, or MFA, if they bring it to the game?

...and two forward firing - but would they have the same undocked-attack/docked-rear-firing value as the original Phantom ?

And these highlight how much they've changed the design from the original Sheathipede - that tail is much lower than the original, and the section above the hatch/below the tail looks to slope up at 45 degrees, rather than be at a right-angle to the door...going to have to make some major adjustments to my 3d model

So is that kid on the YT-2400 in the preview going to turn out to be Dash Rendar? It'd be cool if they bring him into the canon, and he's probably around the right age, since he was most likely a 20-something during the Shadows of the Empire storyline.

I'll give the new shuttle this: I don't have any real questions about where its power supplies and such are.

Filoni said it wasn't Dash, and it wasn't the Outrider. It would be someone else.

How about a "Rebels" pack, with alternate scheme YT-2400 & new pilots, and the new Phantom II shuttle ?

I haven't seen the preview yet. I hope it gives a nod to 90s shoulder pads.

Oh, and before anyone looks for a new episode next week, the next new episode is on the 19th.

Oh well. Wishful thinking I guess.

****, a week off again?

They also said Fulcrum wasn't Ahsoka. They could be lying to keep the suprise.

Given the state of Onderon I doubt anyone's hiding on Dxun. I'm not even sure Dxun exists in the new canon.

Actually, it would be the perfect place to hide. Onderon has a ton of terrorists led by Saw Gererra. The Empire will be focused on hunting down the terrorists. No one's going to be exploring a hostile jungle moon with no natural resources. We don't know if Dxun exists or not though. But it would still be cool.

Well you know they're going to be setting up the beginnings of what we see in Rogue One later on in this season. So far everything shown in the trailers for season three have been the first half. I imagine there is going to be a lot more to come.

We have yet to see the introduction of Nebulon B Frigates, X-Wings, U-Wings and others. I know Filoni has said X Wings are going be very special.

Yeah, but what they are showing looks pretty damned cool....first person view drone racing.

They did that for season 2 as well. The first trailer was for the first half of the season. They had a mid season trailer for the second half. I suspect the same will happen this season as well....and I'm REALLY looking forward for what's in store after what we've seen so far in this season.

There's no way Rebels was ever going to pass up the Fresia heist.

But still... I really wanted to watch it I don't like waiting a super long time before I see what happens next... That's why I don't play Armada.

I think Onderon and Dxun got rolled into Onderon. New Onderon has Dxun's jungle environment but with the Onderon cities.

When Ezra says "I know it was an accident!" ... Chopper told him catching him was an accident. Ha! Missed that the first time around. That plus his maniacal laughter while torturing Ezra to wake him up. This episode grew on me 3fold after second viewing.
