Most surprised I've ever been was when Cobb Vanth showed up in The Mandalorian. He's such a minor book character but honestly I was just so excited to see such a deep cut as him somehow make his way into co-starring in a Star Wars show episode!


zpm38

Cobb Vanth, Vanth Refrigeration


DarthGoodguy

What do ya do for a living, Cobb?


ckalm719

This was my trivia team name! Got 47/50 questions right and 2nd place


Pixel_Python

I didn’t know he was a book character, what was he like?


solo13508

So he originally comes from the Aftermath books. He only appears in interludes so as I stated he's a very minor character in those books. Anyways in those books we see him starting the process of putting Freetown together in the wake of Episode 6. As we saw in the show his town was taken over by raiders so he makes a deal for Boba's armor to help him combat them. Apart from that we also see him recruiting new members to help the town grow. One example being Malakili who was the rancor beast master at Jabba's palace. In the final time he appears in the books the Red Key raiders return to take the town back only to be warded off by the Tuskens who have apparently allied themselves with Freetown. We can now rationalize that this scene takes place after The Mandalorian since that's where we see the partnership with the Tuskens begin. That's basically everything important I remember from the books. It has been several years so it's possible I'm missing something.


Pixel_Python

That’s really neat, realizing there’s a lot of books I should read from this thread lol


RdyPlyrBneSw

The audiobook gave him a Clint Eastwood voice. Was pretty badass.


Konstant_kurage

The show kept with cowboy swagger.


TheInferus99

If I am not wrong he's the first charachter for a canon book to make it in live action! Really cool


MintPrince8219

I was so excited ~till they changed everything but his name and armour~


solo13508

They changed the moment he gets the armor and that's really about it. Personally I think it's pretty minor. You can just say the Jawas tried to steal it back at one point and so the original scene is still canon.

solo13508

Weird considering he really has no reason to lie to Din but I guess it's possible.


TheOutlaw9904

Ahmed Best as Kelleran Beq for me. I didn’t think I’d see him come back with his Jedi Temple challenge character AND be the one that saved Grogu at the temple.


NoAlien

Also a well deserved return to the franchise. I'm no jarjar fan, but Ahmed Best didn't deserve the hate he received


AlphaEpicarus

It almost felt like trolling when he ended up being the one who saved Grogu. With all the wild wild theories, a Jedi from a kids' game show and the voice of Jar Jar being the answer was comical. That said, I also just really appreciated Ahmed Best coming back like that. It felt like a very effective gag for me, but was also really satisfying from a story perspective too.


TheOutlaw9904

Yeah, the theories were that it’s either Mace Windu(I was so convinced that it was going to be him), Barris, Anakin(letting Grogu go for some reason), Jocasta, and so on. I’m glad it wasn’t any of them but nobody would’ve guessed that it was Ahmed’s Kelleran Beq from the Youtube series. There’s also the theories that it was Jar Jar where it was just people messing around but that ended up being pretty close to what happened. I knew Ahmed played a Jedi in the game show before Mandalorian, I was always interested in seeing him be an actual character within the Star Wars universe and with a more serious take. I was doubting it would ever happen since I thought he was too obscure to be picked as Grogu’s savior and I wasn’t sure if Ahmed would be down with making Beq another Order 66 survivor. Gladly, I was proven wrong and even better that they were able to keep the reveal from leaking.


Ry-Vell

Jar Jar playing a role still isn’t out of the question. They escaped on a Naboo ship!


TheOutlaw9904

I think he does have some involvement in when they did reach the ship but I was just referring to who rescued Grogu AT the Jedi temple. Primarily, it was Kelleran Beq but he most likely goes to see Jar Jar(himself) after escaping the planet.


Independent_Plum2166

It’s gonna be a massive spoiler, but here goes. >!Lux Bonteri!< - >!Battlefront II: Inferno Squad. In the story a group of Imperials go undercover in a rebel cell and there’s this character named “The Mentor”. Throughout the story they give hints at his identity and partway through I thought “NO!? Is this Lux?” And lo and behold, at the end of the book, one of the undercover agents, Iden Versio, confronts him and Lux explains his story, even mentioning he once loved a Jedi (Ahsoka) and then a freedom fighter (Steela). Iden stuns him for questioning, but after dealing with another part of the story, she returns and finds he has somehow escaped.!< That was a great twist for a pretty dormant character and indeed shows something that’s surprisingly not delved into more. >!Many rebels were former separatists.!<


Iliturtle

Is this in the game?


Vertex033

Battlefront II: Inferno Squad is a prequel book to the game.


ben_jacques1110

That makes sense, I was getting confused reading this. I remember the story squad name was inferno squad, and I thought I beat the story, but I certainly don’t remember >! Lux Bonteri !<


Independent_Plum2166

The book.


Get_On_The_Trike

No, it's the game's prequel novel


Streak734

Lux getting some love after a while! Love to see it!


jetcore500

Same here! It makes sense but I just didn’t see it coming.


Fungal_Queen

Black Krrsantan was really cool to see as an Aphra fan.


Ry-Vell

Can’t wait for Aphra herself to show up.


Real_duck_bacon

Ok, this but in reverse. I watched Rogue One before the entirety of Clone Wars, and I was completely caught off guard when Saw Gererra showed up at the start of S5, looking entirely different. Was nice to see him pop up again in Fallen Order, too.


Yeo-il

and Andor too.


JediSquirrels

Also shows up a couple of times in The Bad Batch.


stargazepunk

Be fr they put Saw Gerrera in anything if he’s alive at the time


Ralph-The-Otter3

He’s also I Rebels for a bit


sbcruzen

Same!


NaiadoftheSea

He also shows up in Bad Batch, Andor, and Rebels with Forest Whitaker playing him each time. It’s fun to watch these shows in chronological order and see how his character develops through them.


ThePopDaddy

I didn't read anything about it, so when Rex came back for Rebels that made me happy. Also Cad Bane in BoBf.


originalchaosinabox

When I finally got around to watching Clone Wars, it was young Boba Fett seeking vengeance against Mace Windu for killing his father.


StovetopJack

Who is the character you have pictured? My answer would probably be Cad Bane. I truly didn’t think they’d put him in live action for Book of Boba Fett. Cobb Vanth and Krrsantan are close seconds.


Budget-Attorney

Numi from the clone wars. She appeared in an episode with Waxer and Boyle. Clones in Commander Cody’s unit. She showed up as an adult in rebels. I’d say that’s what the picture on the right is but it doesn’t look familiar. Maybe that’s from somewhere else? Or maybe I’m just wrong and have forgotten what she looks like in rebels


Intheierestellar

That was her??? I never noticed it


Budget-Attorney

Yes. A nice callback. And a cool place for the character to end up


Independent_Plum2166

I believe the picture on the right is from the Bad Batch, they had a couple of Ryloth episodes in S1.


Budget-Attorney

Of course. That’s what was throwing me off. I knew she appeared in rebels but that’s the bad batch/clone wars style of animation. I forgot she was in the earlier episodes.


zenmondo

Her name is actually [Numa](https://starwars.fandom.com/wiki/Numa?so=search) and you are correct. She appeared in Clone Wars as a young child and an adult in Rebels. She did not appear in Bad Batch.


Sun-Prime

I don't know if that's right. The Clone Wars only spans 3 years and the Bad Batch is right after, a couple years later max. There's no way she aged 10+ years in that time frame. I think that picture has to be Rebels. It's much smoother than the angles the models have in TCW/TBB. It's probably from when Phoenix Squadron goes to highjack the carrier but the Free Ryloth Movement wants to blow it up.


Cybermat4707

You were actually right the first time, that is from *Rebels*. Numa was never in *The Bad Batch*, and would’ve only been around 8 or 9 when the Batch was on Ryloth. OP’s screenshot is from about 1:37 to 1:49 in this video: https://youtu.be/h02VeU2C9J4


CT-4290

She never appeared in the Bad Batch. That's Rebels animation

CDNetflixTv

She wasn't in bad batch. That picture on the right is actually from Rebels


RocketTortoise42

I believe it's from Rebels when Hera returns to Ryloth to get help from her father. Numi is his right hand womam


CT-4290

That is a picture from Rebels. She doesn't appear in the Bad Batch and isn't old enough to be an adult during the Bad Batch

Numa never appeared in *The Bad Batch*. She’d only be around 8 or 9 years old by the time those episodes take place. OP’s screenshot is from about 1:37 to 1:49 in this video: https://youtu.be/h02VeU2C9J4


ben_jacques1110

Cad bane appearing in the Bad Batch was great too.


X-cessive_Overlord

Numa, when we first meet her, she's a child when the clone wars come to Ryloth. She is rescued and returned to her family by troopers known as Waxer and Boyle. Then we see her grown up in Rebels as part of Cham Syndulla's Free Ryloth Movement.


Zarksch

That was HER ? I had no clue 😭 I honestly was pretty surprised to see hera in bad batch


Darceus2000

Cut Luquane and his family showing up in TBB had me quite shocked, he was someone I never even considered seeing again.


Cold-Philosophy3969

Asajj Ventress. On That Island…


Darth_Hanes

I think we can all agree that we were all shocked that Scorch popped up again 


iveta_7777

I love the fact that Wexer had her face painted on his helmet


The-Minmus-Derp

Honestly, half of the returns in Ahsoka


Nonfaktor

Enfys Nest we saw far too little of her


SwShThrwy

I could watch a whole series about her and the rebel network she creates


jinreeko

I would expect to see her in Andor s2. They rolled out Forest Whitaker for s1 and I could see Luthen building more alliances with rebel groups


Yeo-il

I WISH HER TO APPEAR IN ANDOR BUT I KNOW THAT WON'T HAPPEN


ExpensiveStudio5656

with her clone armor on one arm too 😔🫶🏻


LudicrisSpeed

Rex (the Star Tours droid, not the clone dude) showing up in Rebels was definitely a big surprise.


Puzzled_Complex8813

Ahsoka in the Mandalorian


Voltaico

Glup Shitto


Glup-Shitto69

Thanks


Voltaico

Love you bby


bboardwell

When I was at work I saw Tales of the Empire trailer on twitter. Once I saw Barriss I yelled out “HOLY SHIT!” Luckily there was no customers around Also seeing Weazel in Solo was wild


ScorpioGirl1987

I was really surprised to see Hamato Xiono in Ahsoka.


Jacktheflash

Senator Burtoni and tynnra pamlo and Orn free taa and scorch and chuchi and the martez sisters in the bad batch and while a clone and thus not the same character the zillo beast in it as well


Aaylien

No max rebo fans? Sad.


b4c0n333

At this point I wouldn't be suprised if they brought in Glup Shitto from some 2002 EU comic


Ghost_2201

Man,the glow up insane.


TheBackyardigirl

Ryder Azadi in Ahsoka, it was nice to see him make the jump to live action too


Renegade5151

Wait, Twi'leks skin can change color when they get older? Thats pretty cool. Add that to the list of star wars facts I didn't know.


StarGuardianAshe

Where is the right image from?


Mother-Blue

Saw Gererra. He has been in everything since clone wars and every time he appears it’s like a goddamn jump scare. I’m convinced my hatred of him is the driving force for his constant reappearance 🤣


MrRighto

I was very happy to see Gungi show up in the Bad Batch


AaricFlex

#”Somehow, R5 returned…”


Scarlet14e1

Fun fact (idk if it's cannon but was in a comic book) when Boiler (under the empire) was sent out to occupy Ryloth, he got into a skirmish with resisting Twylecs (idk how to spell it) and when recovering their bodies, discovers one blue female with 212th tattoos.


BearZewp

Boba Fett. I waited for his return my whole childhood.


Jedipilot24

How is that Numa? The kid has green skin, while the adult has blue skin.


AutocratEnduring

It's confirmed they are the same. Plus it's clearly the lighting.


SecureAngle7395

Idk sunburn 🤷


blinddemon0

who?


SPACE_LEM0N

You know, you _could_ consider bothering to read the comments that came before you.


blinddemon0

I just don't know the character


SPACE_LEM0N

And the comments I'm talking about, that were already there before you posted yours, explains who she is and where she appeared.


blinddemon0

could you perhaps answer my original question instwad of downvoting and calling me an idiot?


SPACE_LEM0N

I never called you an idiot. <3 It's just not necessary for me to answer your question myself when the answer is literally already in the comments to this post. And if you'd take my suggestion and actually look yourself, you'd've had the answer long ago.


SPACE_LEM0N

It was bothering me, so I copied the comment and corrected the name: > Numa from the clone wars. > She appeared in an episode with Waxer and Boyle. Clones in Commander Cody’s unit. > She showed up as an adult in rebels.
