That vertical battle with the AT-TEs looks absolutely insane to say the least. Anybody know what planet that's on?

Tatooine I believe.

@Super_Battle_Droid

Really? I wonder what's on Tatooine that needs to be climbed up vertically like that. Weird for basically a barren wasteland...

Well, we've already seen some cliffs when Anakin goes to find his mother.

I wouldn't be shocked if the Confederacy had Jabba's son in some kind of strategic position, and the Republic had to attack up the side of a mountain. Or something.

I'm excited as hell. If this sells big, they should make a pre-Phantom Menace story-arc involving the young Qui-Gon, Mace, Dooku, Sifo-Dyas and Yoda, along with Palpatine and Plagueis plotting in the background. This could also involve Grievous and Fett. The sky's the limit with these characters. Lucas needs to showcase these guys more than they were exposed.

Or make a show based on Cloak of Deception and Shadow Hunter.

Pre-TPM Maul is a bad***

If that vertical battle is indeed Tatooine, it's got a distinct purple tinge to it. Tatooine has always had a bright and dusty yellow/orange feel to it in the movies.

I'm actually thinking it's a new planet.

Unless it's another planet with binary suns, if you look at the banner, it looks like Tatooine with a purple hue. And there were some colorful sunsets on Tatooine in the prequels. Also, Jabba's Palace is on the edge of a cliff.... thinking

I'm thinking it's Tatooine aswell. The banner proves that Tatooine has some purple things going on, and Anakin and Ahsoka are stationed there [The scene with the Krayt dragon bones]. Also, Jabba's palace is on a HUGE cliff.

But, I'd always welcome a new planet. The more, the merrier.

I just rewatched the video, and right when the clone tropers are about to make their ascent, they are standing on the ground in what seems to be grass. Now, I'm no expert on Tatooine, but I don't remember seeing any grass in that desert.

I still have a feeling that it's a new planet, or at least not Tatooine.

It's very hard to tell what's done just for artistic effect for images (twin suns banner image) and what is actually the go in the series. I believe the shot in the banner in here is seen during another video ... is there a purple hue there as well?

I just have this gut feeling of a new planet. Not that it really matters at this stage. tongue


A point to make about Jabba's cliff face would be; why are clones assaulting Jabba's palace with battle droids defending it? Isn't Obi-Wan (so in essence, clones too) sent to help Jabba?

thinking

Based on the minifigs that come with the Lego AT-TE, the "vertical battle" is probably the rescue of Jabba's son. I think Anakin & Ahsoka have to visit Jabba on Tatooine for the lowdown on the kidnapping, but I'd be surprised if Rotta is being imprisoned right next door, so I'm guessing different planet, too. But who knows...

It's possible that control of the palace changes hands- either the clones defend it ("Here they commmmmmme!") and are overrun, and later have to retake it using the cliffside instead of the main path, or the droids have already taken control of the palace at the start, and the clones come in via the cliffside to take the palace, and then must defend it from a subsequent effort by the CIS to retake the palace/Jabba's son.

It's just ... imagine battle droids walking around inside the palace alongside B'omarr monks and the like. tongue
