Moff Gideon’s actions throughout The Mandalorian series might seem like those of a man obsessed with Mandalorians, but that’s not quite accurate. He wasn’t interested in their people, their honor, or their way of life, he was after what they had: beskar, power, and legacy. Everything he did was part of a calculated strategy. He …

When we think of someone challenging Vader and Palpatine, a short list of opponents comes to mind. Perhaps Obi-Wan and Luke head the list. But what about a non-Jedi or non-Force-sensitive character? We do have an instance when an Imperial officer stood up to Vader and the Emperor. This character is not widely known, and …

Kylo Ren’s lightsaber continues to elicit discussion. With its unique design and red, jagged blades, his crossguard lightsaber is a fascinating point of interest.

Jango and Boba Fett’s ship, Slave I, is equipped with powerful options. While the twin rotating blaster cannon could be its most distinguishing feature, the seismic charges could potentially destroy a capital ship. Yet, we can identify two main reasons why that’s not the case, both having to do with strength.  Capital Ship Shields Are …

I used to think those little colored tiles on Imperial uniforms were just cool costume details. But once I really looked into them, I realized they’re actually a full ranking system hiding in plain sight. The colors, the tile count, and even how they’re arranged all reveal someone’s branch, status, and authority. It’s way more …

I’ve always found it interesting that Jedi, in a galaxy full of high-tech gear and military hardware, never bothered with shields. No wrist-mounted deflectors, no energy barriers, no sci-fi riot shields – even though they were fighting in wars and getting shot at constantly. But once I sat down and looked deeper, the pieces actually …

After the Clone Wars ended, the Senate banned battle droids for good. No more armies of machines—just peace, at least on the surface. But Palpatine didn’t exactly follow that rule. He just changed the name and kept the program running under a new label: security droids. That’s where the KX-series comes in. I spent some …

I was rewatching Attack of the Clones the other day when something strange popped up during the Battle of Geonosis. For one quick shot, Ki-Adi-Mundi—who always fights with a blue lightsaber—suddenly has a green one. It’s just a blink-and-you’ll-miss-it moment, but once you notice it, it feels out of place.
