EE has a free shipping code for orders over $35, and you can find that right in the masthead. I ordered a couple Piett figures and used TVC Stormtroopers to get it over the line for free shipping. Win win.

I just see the FreeShip59 code on the masthead.  Weird.

It was interesting how things came together in the end, but I kind of wished a couple episodes were more coherent (The Convert and Guns for Hire)... more along the lines of Andor, where they can focus on different characters arcs within an episode (and how its spread out through the season) instead of bookending the episode with Djarin and Bo-Katan with the actual purpose of the episode.

Also, jet pack fuel limits were definitely a plot device this season.  In The Foundling, it was an issue to go find the bird, but in the finale, Axe Woves just flies off into space and to a ship in orbit with no issue.

That said, I still enjoyed things.

Did we get confirmation if this is a straight repack or something newish?

Pretty much straight repack, just new card.

Another weird thing is that Paz Viszla shoots the blast door to keep the Imps from going after the Mandos seemingly dooming himself to overwhelming odds.  After he defeats the commandos, and if the Praetorians hadn't shown up to finish the job, he would have been standing there foolishly trying to figure out how to reconnect with the others.

As for the cloning:
Gideon did mention that he was going to create a new generation of darktroopers using elements of Jedi, clones, and Mandalorians and that the army would restore order to the galaxy... perhaps they're making a new breed of clone trooper... or perhaps the Sith Troopers?  It will be interesting to see where that goes.

Good theories!  I was wondering about "The Spies" in the title as spying seemed to play a minor role in the episode.

I have a hard time thinking Axe or The Armorer are spies, but I'm not sure I've got a better idea.  Maybe the "sailing Mandalorians" are spies for Gideon having survived for so long on Mandalore and potentially walking the rest right in to a trap by the forge. 

Yeah, I kept thinking those wounded Mandalorians were spies.  But what Nick says about The Armorer makes sense, too, regarding the Purge on Navarro and she being the only survivor.  No one asked how she survived that.... Plus, I keep wondering about her reaction to Bo-Katan's revelation about the Mythosaur.  It was dismissive in a way.  But maybe The Armorer has some deal with Gideon to allow a small number of Mandos live in exchange for some useful commodity (like Beskar).

So they were going to rebuild their homeworld with like 30 people? There have to be way more Mandalorians out there somewhere, right? At least Boba and Sabine for starters.

The one thing is this part of the plot moved way too quickly.  They just defeated the pirates and Karga gifted them some land in Nevarro to settle but they are already set to go back Mandalore.  And they kept talking about taking Mandalore back.  From who?  It seemed like pretty much a "dead" world without much activity from their visits (yes, there were many species they saw, but it didn't look like the planet was occupied by any means).  Has Moff Gideon been using Mandalore as a base all this time?  Apparently so.

I guess that wasn’t the Mythosaur that erupted out of the ground but I sure thought it was going to be.

No, but it seemed weird that the creature destroys their skiff/hovercraft and the Mandalorians go to this cave that conveniently leads them to the Great Forge.  Like, "Oh yeah, we've arrived at the Great Forge.  Too bad the valet took out our means of transportation."

Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes.

I had flashbacks to when my children were infants playing with their electronic toys (I presume that was their intention).

Deluxe IG-12 with Anzellan droidsmith(s) just jumped to the top of my most wanted list.

Yes, but you'll get IG-12 with Grogu instead.

I'm sure we'll get both versions, probably not removeable driver though.

And they'll be deluxe now (even though we got IG-11 single carded and it's just a tweaked upper torso).

Wow!  That was an episode straight from the beginning.  Lots of potential figure material in this episode (whether Hasbro makes them is another thing).  Lots of connections being made.

I noticed Morgan Elsbeth in one of the shots.  Wonder what her role will be?

They look the same to me.

If Hasbro was smart they’d release the Massif separately and charge you $17-8 so you’re spending $35 instead of $28.
