So @code, while you are here I have something to show you....
At a friend of the family's house and saw this...
@Desmblake Oh - I got a new Star Wars display cabinet.
Well, it's an ex government server cabinet, but it's gonna look sick and it's already in Imperial grey.
@Desmblake Nothing of major note. Few larger bits that I found on sale. Trying to get it all sorted still lol. #ADHD
@code You see the new show yet?
@Desmblake NO! NO SPOILERS!
@code π€£π€£ I haven't seen it yet but heard from a couple of people it's good, like Rogue One good.
it's really good...definitely recommended
@Desmblake @opie Disney + in Australia. Because I need to pay for another streaming service.
ππ€£π
no
Mandalorians are a people, of which Boba Fett was one...they're basically the Spartans of the Star Wars universe
And this show takes place after Return of the Jedi (post fall of Empire), prior to The Force Awakens (rise of the New Order)
He's a Clone. Just natural born and raised, not a vat job.
@Desmblake @opie
Yes. His father Jango, the clone template, was a Mandalorian @Desmblake @opie
@Desmblake @code @opie mandalorian is a religion. Was a species but transformed. Also the canon is changing apparently from the books to the Disney owner star wars verse.
Hrmmm...
(That would make it in line with Tales from Jabba's Palace actually, weirdly enough.)
(More the counter-Alderaanian's (in a Ying/Yang/ or Triskele Dark/Grey/Light sense), or Switzerland in a late medieval Byzanztine Empire sense (professional soldiers), or in a modern context, WW2 Isreal or WW2 Russia (the entire population and economy is geared to Total War as a defence measure). IMO.
Spartans have the gender issues, and Mandy's are humanist (as long as you're a Mandalorian or their equal, like Obi.) @opie @Desmblake
I have always thought waaaaaay to much about Star Wars π @opie @Desmblake
No, but the ruler of the Mandalorians during the Clone Wars was boning him something hard. @Desmblake @opie
Well, I know it's not Yoda, and it's Yoda's species. And lets just now zip it.
@RandomUsr @opie @code what surprise? The image has been all over Twitter with the speculation that it's a baby Yoda.
Sorry if I might have spoiled it but I thought the image was everywhere.
@Desmblake you're all good.
I think maybe not everyone has seen it? Or maybe I live in another world lol
This all I hear star wars fans talking about right now. So far, it seems to be in the spirit and artistic impression of the originals. I hope they keep that
You're dead to me now π @Desmblake @opie
