The Bad Batch - SPOILERS

[Nikosandros]

Nope.

Older canon that is now "legends" is quasi-canon . . . it sorta, maybe happened until something in the current canon supercedes it. "Legends" doesn't mean that the older canon doesn't exist at all in current Star Wars lore.

And Filoni and crew have done a lot of "legends" mining, bringing forth elements of that older canon into the newer tv shows. Sometimes in the same form, sometimes tweaked and reimagined a bit.

So, will Arla Fett be brought forward from legends into modern canon? Who knows? It's a possiblity.

Indeed. A certain Grand Admiral comes to mind...

And Revan. They're apparently redoing KoToR.

ok so the bounty hunter is the same from Mandalorian?

if so is the timeline a little off? Boba is a 50/60 year old in mandalorian?

enjoyed this episode a lot. liked the new design of the astomech droid (one with 2 legs) and all the classic races

I can now imagine how Rambo would survive in the star wars universe (I feel like 1 is modeled after him)

Ming-Na Wen who plays Fennec is 57 years old, so this is fairly consistent with the show ages. She looks amazing for her age, which might lead to some confusion.

Legends. No longer canon.

It's all canon, from a certain point of view. lol

Yes.

If we take Fennec to be 50-something in The Mandalorian, she would be 30-something in TBB.

Maybe i missed it but do we know who Fennec is working for? If its Tarkin wasnt he opposed to Vader using bounty hunters in Empire Strikes back?

Nobody knows but speculation is that the Kaminoans hired Boba Fett who hired her.

No, but so far as we know it's only the Kaminoans who consider Omega significant and might want her back alive. Tarkin seemed to take no interest in her. He just seemed to want the clones dead, and at a low priority at that.

It's possible there may be another interested party that has yet to be revealed.

Tarkin was pretty much spacedust by the time of The Empire Strikes Back, so I think he had no opinion on bounty hunters...
