Fan service in The Mandalorian

imperialtrooptransport-w-boxOne thing I’m loving about The Mandalorian (the new Star Wars spin-off series on Disney+); the fan service coupled with some extra touches to existing designs. The Imperial trooper transport – that was never in the films but existed as a toy in the 70s – makes an appearance in episode 7. Also the TIE fighter landing with foldable wings in the next scene was a nice touch.

P.S. – Yes I have seen The Rise of Skywalker and there’s a lot to say about it, some of which I will be attempting on the Big Mouth podcast in the second week of January 2020.
