(❤️ this scene & dialogue)
Din Djarin: (Approaching Boba & Fennec) This is all that survived…(Shows them his Beskar spear) Boba Fett: (Instantly recognizing what the spear is made of) Beskar. Din Djarin: (Nods yes) Boba Fett: I want you to take a look at something….
Boba Fett: (Raises his left gauntlet & activates its holographic data read-out display. Looking at the holographic data, which is written in Mando'a….) Boba Fett: My chain code has been encoded in this armor for 25 years. (Indicating hologram) See, this is me…Boba Fett. Boba Fett: (Points at one holographic symbol) This is my father, Jango Fett. (Looks up from the display at Din Djarin)
Din Djarin: (Considering Boba's words, observing the display Boba has just shown him & hearing the name of Mandalorian Bounty Hunter Jango Fett….) Din Djarin: (Din immediately understands why this man has claimed the Mandalorian armor he is now wearing) Your father was a foundling.
Boba Fett: Yes. (Deactivates the display) He even fought in the Mandalorian Civil Wars. Din Djarin: Then that armor belongs to you. Boba Fett: (Nods yes) I appreciate it's return….
THIS scene confirmed SO much: *IS Jango a Mandalorian? YES! *DOES Boba read/understand Mando'a? Uh-huh! *DOES Boba Know his Mandalorian Heritage? Yup! *AFTER All of these years is Boba FINALLY shown on screen being a bad-a$$ with & without his Mandalorian Armor? HELL YES!!!
As a long-time fan of the Mando'ade/ Boba Fett/ Jango Fett/ Jaster Mereel/ True Mandalorians & a big fan of The Mandalorian, it was so satisfying to watch this episode & witness the above-referenced exchange between Din Djarin & Boba Fett.
Boba Fett IS canonically alive! It's official!
(AND this scene FINALLY shuts down all of the "Jango Fett really wasn't a Mandalorian" osik).
Just in time for those upcoming hot-ass, Triple-Digit Summertime days….
…The Multi-Purpose DraCoolah® Casket-Cooler…!
I've just come across this recently. This looks SO cool & incredibly detailed. If ANY OG Lucasarts Star Wars game deserves a remake, it's this gem of a video game, Star Wars Republic Commando (2005). Thank you so much Oleksandr Maziura for this Republic Commando Intro Remake.
In addition: Taun We's hand gesture was a really nice touch (showing her care & empathy towards Baby Boss). Also, after encountering that A-DSD Advanced Dwarf Spider Droid in the Training Simulator, I remember when playing the game I'd IMMEDIATELY toss a good ol' Detonator towards 'em, target 'em & then order ALL Squad Members to concentrate fire on THAT Target.
Back in the day I used to ❤️ using the Engage Target Command and see my Squad just unload their array of Blaster, Sniper & Anti-Armor rounds (in addition to their Thermal & EC (Electro-Static Charge) Detonators) while my Target's health just slowly drained away. Nothing beats Concentrated Firepower!
This is Concept Art for The Mandalorian (Din Djarin) Helmet's T-Visor HUD (Heads-Up Display). It was shown in The Art of Star Wars: The Mandalorian book. Unfortunately, Din's helmet Heads-Up Display wasn't showcased in the 1st episode of The Mandalorian. Instead, the show had Din use the scope of his Amban Phase-Pulse Blaster (AKA Amban Sniper Rifle) to scan the hideout of the Nikto mercs that were keeping Grogu.
The series has presented some very cool features of Din's Mandalorian helmet. Like when Din eavesdropped on Imperial Officer "The Client" & Clone Engineer Dr. Pershing by: A) Scomp-linking his helmet to his scope to enhance its vison mode, allowing Din to lock in on their position inside their Imperial safehouse and: B) Adjusting the scopes controls to listen in on the Client & the Doctor's conversation concerning Grogu's fate.
Since Mandalorian Helmet T-Visors are known to possess many features (Heads-Up Display, Macrobinocular Viewplate, Enhanced Vision) I hope we'll see something close or similar to the afore mentioned T-Visor concept art pic being utilized by Din Djarin & other Mandalorians. Because frankly, with all of the other Mandos that appeared in The Mandalorian, it was odd that, except for a few rare occasions, any of them ever used their T-Visor's Heads-Up Displays to target an enemy, scan an area for hostiles, etc. (And if someone did use their Helmet's HUD, it would just look like a plain video camera shot instead of a view similar to the T-Visor concept art pic shown below.)
Hopefully we'll get to see a Mando use their helmet HUD's featuring a T-Visor POV (with accompanying data read-out graphics) someday on-screen. Maybe even in the upcoming The Mandalorian & Grogu film.
Thank you to everyone who got me to 500 likes!

❤️ Star Wars Andor. Thee BEST Star Wars TV series. Hands.Down. But….
…Not to startle anyone or anything like that, but…WTF happened to Bee-Two (B2EMO)?
…WHERE the Hell is Bee-Two?!?! WHERE IS HE….?
WTF, Cassian! Lil' guy was always stressed out, worrying about you. Now you're a Captain in the Rebellion, safe on Yavin IV, chillin' in your plush spot. And NOW you're gonna leave dude hanging. B2 is with strangers, not knowing you're ok, & wondering where he'll get his next recharge from....
Stop playin' Cass! Reclaim your prototype TIE Avenger, go scoop-up B2 & bring him on back home to Yavin IV so K-2SO can tell him to stop being so emotional & worrying so much about you every time you leave & how he'll toss 'em around some if he doesn't cut that sh!t out...😝
Happy Fett Friday! SO glad the lore now allows Mandalorian Jetpacks to fly for longer periods of time.
Even though I ❤️ playing Star Wars Bounty Hunter way back in the day, I absolutely HATED how you were granted only mere seconds of flight time before your jetpack would shut off & force you to land so that it could re-charge/ cool-off from overheating.
In Attack of the Clones, after Jango Fett eliminated Zam Wesell with a Saber Dart, his Jetpack allowed a very quick escape from Obi-Wan & Anakin. And it was a QUICK escape. Unlike in Star Wars Bounty Hunter, Jango didn't fly for a few seconds, then land to let his Jetpack recharge, then fly for a few more seconds, then land again, then fly a little bit more, then once again land, and then….
Hell, he never would have made it out of there if he had to do keep doing that slow-ass shit…
This is what happened. Jango took off. The sound of his Jetpack igniting drew the attention of Obi-Wan & Anakin. They observed Jango flying up higher & higher, furthering the distance between them so rapidly the Jedi realized that a pursuit at that point would be futile.
That's why it felt good to finally see Mandos airborne for extended periods. Throughout The Mandalorian TV series Boba Fett, Din Djarin, Bo-Katan, The Armorer & many other Mandalorians propelled themselves through the air & kicked shebs. During the Battle of Mandalore, it was so awesome to witness waves of Mandos that flew high above Mandalore, engage the Empire in battle & take back their homeworld. Because Mandalorians are stronger together....
Boba Fett (To Jodo Kast): "You're NO one! Not Dala, not Shysa! NOBODY!" - Star Wars Twin Engines of Destruction
Always ❤️ this line. It showed that Boba knew of Tobbi Dala & Fenn Shysa AND he also knew what they looked like. Proving that Boba was well aware of not only his Mandalorian heritage but also well-known/ important Mandalorian figures….
And I ❤️ how Boba upheld the Mandalorian Tradition of reclaiming/ removing Mandalorian Armor from all encountered individuals that are Non-Mandalorian (Similar to how Din Djarin repossessed Boba Fett's Armor from Cobb Vanth).
And last but not least, I can't leave out the classic Boba Fett line: "This IS my face."
