The Bad Batch Official "The Bad Batch" Series Discussion Thread (Spoilers Allowed)

Some pictures of him from the trailer.

It's a pity he didn't keep the handprint.

 

Looks like they modified Echo's look from the Kashyyyk arc then:


Loses the pauldrons and 'skirt', plus the colouring is different (though that could just be cause it's an animatic).

 

The helmet seems very similar though.

 

I wonder if they have replaced his robotic hand with something similar to Anakin has in the clone wars. And will it be like switch between hand and robotic key.

 

clones getting phased out for regular grunts seems like a pretty natural arc for this show to follow, especially if it turns out that Bad Batch is the last clone crew standing.

 

On a different topic concerning the Bad Batch, Hunter's helmet definitely looks like the missing link between Phase II Clone and Stormtrooper helmets.

 

There's also some stormtrooperesque details on crosshair's helmet.

 

Hunter's helmet always reminds me of Force Unleashed 'Phase III' troopers seen in the prologue:

 

I always found those helmets odd.

 

They look a little strange, but it is interesting.

 

Teah, they jut merged the eye holes and added the t-visor. There really doesn't seem to be a purpose.

 

I wonder if we get any reference to what happened to Jesse and the half of the 501st that went down during Order 66? Like "We lost contact. No idea what happened to them."

 

I imagine they'll eventually meet with rex, and he'll tell them.

 

I know we'll probably never see it in this show but it would be interesting to see how Anakin's half of the 501st reacted to order 66 during ROTS.

How were their chips activated. Why didn't they target Anakin during the attack on the temple? Were they brainwashed into thinking that 'Lord Vader' was a separate entity to General Skywalker?

 

It's already been established that Sid can amend Order 66 at his pleasure. He explicitly included Ahsoka despite her not being a Jedi. He can exclude Anakin the same way. I do not think futher on-screen elaboration is needed.

 

Dee bradley baker, promises clone wars action and go more into what clone wars did and being a series for all like clone wars.

 

I wonder if they are going to cover what happened on Kashyykk. I hope they do. Little by little Im kind of getting exctited for this. I just heard that the Annie Awards nominated Season 7 of the Clone Wars. Gosh I hope they win this time.

 

I wonder how much money DBB will make now that he is playing all the main characters

 

I cannot wait to see some Imperial era Clone Wars-style action. I especially wanna see the transition from Clones to Stormies.

 

Do we know if this is a mini-series, or is it going to have multiple seasons?

 

In nowhere in the marketing ddi it say limited or event series like it does for Ahsoka, Lando, Kenobi so I would assume no

 

Nah, i think it be between 4-5 seasons, give the first 5 years of the empire

 

I think we’ll have a show after bad batch that covers the middle of the dark times
