    Yeah, I have no desire to run to the store and buy a toy of that ship.

    Plummeting merchandise sales = bad for Star Wars was the point I was making. Designs like that one are the cause.

    Just out of curiosity, what are some decent ship designs in your opinion?

    Maybe it's just me, but I don't think the general target audience for SW merchandise (boys aged ~6~14) are going to be dissuaded from buying (or asking for) toys because of ship designs like that. The decline of Star Wars merchandise sales is due to a variety of factors (some internal to Lucasfilm, and others external, like market factors), and while I agree that many adult collectors and fans (such as myself) dedicate a good amount of their budgets to buying SW merchandise, the bulk of sales is comprised of either kids buying their own toys, or adults buying toys for their kids. I'd venture to say most kids don't necessarily get caught up on the aesthetics of space ship designs.

    If people really want to get into the ships, speeders, etc. of The Mandalorian, go ahead and make a thread. Obviously there's interest, as the past few pages of this thread have shown. Talk about what we've seen and what you would like to see.

    I think the artist that did the artwork above did it.

    I'm not sure of the timeline or if anybody else has suggested this.what if the rumor abouthis bounty being a baby is true? Could this baby be rey, cloned or otherwise? I saw the footage on YouTube where he meets Herzog's character and there was dr there.maybe they're trying to connect it to the movies like marvel?

    Rey isn't old enough. The series takes place 3 years after the Battle of Endor while Rey was born 11 years after.

    I shouldn’t do this, as I need more strikes against you after the February disaster, but I can’t help myself.

    To your credit, Favreau had initially said the Mandalorian was set 7 years after the Battle of Yavin, which is 3 years after ROTJ. But that changed when he announced at SWC that the show was set 5 years after Endor.

    So, you weren’t just misremembering.

    That said, you’re still wrong about everything else.

    TROS has my attention, but this is my most anticipated SW project. I love the vibe. It has that RO/Solo feeling, and plus I love Mandalorian bounty hunters and the underworld. This will get a Blu-Ray release as well, obviously?

    I imagine this will get a mega Blu-Ray release with Mando armor-packaging and all kinds of schwag.

    So given they're talking about a child that definitely means its not about Spar!

    So dating roughly around the same time Anakin was born, was there anything else going on at that time according to legends or is this going to be another rewrite thanks to Disney?

    Canon.
    On the plus side at least it should be a good explanation this time.
