Brickadeer Posted May 15, 2012 Posted May 15, 2012 In RotS they all have coloured armour. There's no reason they should look all-white ahead of time. Basically, clones are equal, that's why they strive for individuality, which is represented by their armors. The stormtroopers are not equal, but different. The identical uniforms have a different function here; different things (persons) are to be made the same. Quote
Mr Man Posted May 15, 2012 Posted May 15, 2012 (edited) In RotS they all have coloured armour. There's no reason they should look all-white ahead of time. In ROTS we see only the 501st, 212th and The Coruscant Guard (oh and Bly's lot) in Legion colours, there's nothing to say that other clones weren't going all white already. In CW there's plenty of all white clones. Oh Grees lot are in environmental cammo not legion colours so I didn't mention them. Edited May 15, 2012 by Mr Man Quote
Brickadeer Posted May 18, 2012 Posted May 18, 2012 Actually, I missed that: "Star Wars Day also lead to a small update of the official Star Wars website with some new graphics. More specifically, the Celebration VI page now includes an image of Boba Fett in his classic green Mandalorian armor, drawn for the first time in the Clone Wars series animation style. This character model's inclusion is probably a sneaky hint that young Fett will first don his armor during Star Wars The Clone Wars: Season 5 and an official confirmation with the first footage will be shown at the Celebration VI event in August."

Like with Dengar's armour, they'll have over 20 years to get it to ESB appearance (ANH for Boba). Quote
Mr Man Posted May 19, 2012 Posted May 19, 2012 The season 5 trailer! Was that a HMP in the trailer? Thanks commanderneyo . Quote

Hellfyre Posted May 19, 2012 Posted May 19, 2012 HMP? Heavy Missile Platform, aka Droid Gunship (TLG made a set of it back in 2008). It's also present during the Battle of Kashyyk during ROTS. Quote
Sir_Basil_Ashton Posted May 19, 2012 Posted May 19, 2012 The season 5 trailer! Thanks for the link. I am very pleased with this trailer. This really looks like it's going to be an amazing season. I can't wait to see the official release of this trailer so I can hear it better. Quote
LEGOman273 Posted May 25, 2012 Author Posted May 25, 2012 Did anyone else notice that Bo-Katan's helmet design resembles a Cylon's? It wouldn't be an accident, as Bo-Katan is voiced by Katee Sackhoff (who portrayed Kara "Starbuck" Thrace in Battlestar Galactica). Bo-Katan: Cylon: Quote

Bo-Katan: Cylon: Actually, apparently Filoni's wife just really likes owls. So, he designed Bo-Katan's helmet to resemble a barn owl's face. Pretty interesting that she also played Starbuck. Neat.

I see nothing owl-like about Bo-Katan's helmet design. Where did you hear that? Edit: Though that would explain why her squad is called the "Night Owls". Edit 2: Perhaps a bit owl-like around the eyes, but the "cheeks" and "chin" of the helmet look Cylon. Edited May 26, 2012 by LEGOman273 Quote
Sir_Basil_Ashton Posted May 26, 2012 Posted May 26, 2012 When I first saw Bo-Katan's helmet I thought owl. Specifically a barn owl. Thought it was just me thinking that though. Quote

I can't wait to see the official release of this trailer so I can hear it better. Thanks for the link. I couldn't understand/recognize everything; I hope there'll be an official release soon. However, it seems to be that Maul will remain a bit longer than just one arc. Edited May 26, 2012 by Brickadeer Quote
Oky Posted May 26, 2012 Posted May 26, 2012 The trailer looks promising. Lots of action, and Hondo is finally back. But this wouldn't be the first time a trailer was deceiving... We'll have to wait and see. I see nothing owl-like about Bo-Katan's helmet design. Where did you hear that? StarWars.com. Skip to slide 5. I'm sure the resemblance to cylons is just coincidental, although still pretty neat. Quote

We'll have to wait and see. I agree. I wonder if we'll see a season with 22 episodes featuring one main story and several subsequent sub-stories. The same trailer, although in a slightly better quality: trailer Quote

LEGOman273 Posted May 30, 2012 Author Posted May 30, 2012 EU planets and groups. My guess for the death is Hondo (Filoni said that Dooku would try to take revenge on Hondo.) I doubt that it will be Rex or Ahsoka. Embo is unlikely, as he is a very popular character/a badass. Same with Cad Bane. It likely won't be Savagé, as his and Maul's story seems to be just getting off the ground. Ventress will likely continue to be developed, thus, will live. I don't think that it will be Lux, as his relationship with Ahsoka can be developed more. The fack that the Black Sun pirates will appear adds to the case that Hondo will die, as they could serve as a replacement for Hondo's gang. Quote

After all, we see Savage knock him to the ground at one point in the trailer. And it seems like all Hondo is getting is a cameo, but we'll see... Quote

And it seems like all Hondo is getting is a cameo, but we'll see... And no one else has been knocked down? Filoni stated (and if I could find the link, I would provide it) that Dooku has not forgotten the threat he made to Hondo. Now that I think about it, it may be Savagé. Ventress took the bounty on him in "Brothers", and his death would give Maul someone else to want to take revenge on (Kenobi - for de-legging/almost killing him, Sidious - for deserting him). Quote
DarthR2-D2 Posted May 30, 2012 Posted May 30, 2012 The "format" of that trailer seemed very much like the Episode III trailer to me. I'm kinda glad this season will take a darker turn. I kinda hope its one of the "good guys" to get killed off though *cough* Ahsoka *cough* Quote
LEGOman273 Posted May 30, 2012 Author Posted May 30, 2012 The "format" of that trailer seemed very much like the Episode III trailer to me. I, also, thought this. Especially in the scene when Obi-Wan and the Clones were running through a hangar, and Grievous was slashing around. Quote
commanderneyo Posted May 31, 2012 Posted May 31, 2012 Confirmed through Insider that Padme Amidala will have a huge story-arc next season. If my hunch is correct, that arc will probably have something to do with the return of Clovis. Quote
