A/V The Freemaker Adventures - Season 2

Thanks guys, that's pretty much what I was thinking. I'd like to think that some less-silly version of these events from the show may have actually happened in the canon timeline.

 

any news on there being more of them?

 

LOL. Isn't SWTOR just the last remnant of Legends canon? It'll be swept away in a decade or two, I'm sure.

Been obsessively pulling together a LEGO Star Wars timeline together. Oddly consistent things in the LEGO canon:

-Resurrected Maul seems to have been affiliated with Dooku and Sidious from at least the beginning of the Clone Wars. His takeover of Mandalore occurred before Anakin was knighted.

-Nahdar Vebb shows up to be openly mocked several times in different sources before dying a horribly graphic cartoon death in the Clone Wars video game.

-There would be weirdly intricate tie-ins between the cartoons, the LEGO Magazine comics, and a series of online animated comics that basically consisted of them doing the same sequence of events in each medium but referencing each other in such a way that it actually occurred two or three times as different stories. Bizarre. This happened in Legends a lot, but never intentionally.

-Nevertheless, Season Two of the animated comic is hilarious and everyone should read it. It's Red vs Blue in the LEGO Star Wars universe.

-Holocron-based time travel is a thing.

-Surprising references in various sources: Tag and Bink, Mongo Beefhead, Tython, Gormaanda.

-There's a lot more Jek-14 than I thought.

-The Millennium Falcon is a mobile nightclub owned by Lando's father Lindo.

-The near-constant prequel snark is tiring but occasionally funny.

-There seem to be two distinct continuities: the Quest for R2-D2/Kamino Code/Holocron storylines and the Padawan Menace/Yoda Chronicles/Freemaker Adventures one we're currently getting. I haven't been able to determine if there's a direct link between the two yet.

The mobile nightclub Falcon gag may be one of my favourites jokes in the entire SW-Lego-verse. "May the funk be with you!"

 

Season 2 trailer is here! Can't wait!

 

So, Hera survives until at least past the Battle of Hoth

 

Literally my first thought.

 

My immediate reaction was "is that a TIE Phantom?" Close enough.

 

Heh, turns out the "General Syndulla" line in Rogue One came about because she was already set to appear on this show.

The fact that there's an actual trailer is awesome.

Isn't that some sort of joke, though? I don't see what the fact Hera appears in a whimsical series in which characters frequently acknowledge they're Legos has to do with Rogue One.

 

So the arrowhead name is being reused, but in a different context. Neat.

 

Well, to quote yourself:

Leeland has refereed to the show as "canon-adjacent". And he specifically stated that Hondo's appearance in the first season did mean that Hondo was still canonically alive in that timeframe. This is all in the video of the panel posted earlier in the thread.

I don't know why the same logic wouldn't apply to Hera, and his tweet above seems to indicate that.

 

So should I look forward to Billy D making an appearance as Lando's dad Lindo in the Han Solo movie?

 

I'm hoping for Lingraando Calrissian, just to canonize all the previous names.

apparently shorts are starting in May so I would assume the show would start up proper in June. It's actually a great summer Star Wars show and kind of helps fill the (rather longish) gaps in between Rebels. I'm stoked it's getting a Season 2 although I do like how the Lego Star Wars series has jumped around the timeline in general.

 

Swooning over a Lego character... I don't know how to feel about this development. lol


Anyway, I love seeing all of the realistic concept art here.The arrowhead is a pretty sweet ship design. I'd be happy to see it in an Old Republic era comic or something. I hope we get to see more of these someday, like for Naare and the Rancor's Fist.
