Mandalore: come here boy Basilisk: starts fucking shit up

Mando's new spaceship in a way? Sweet...Hasbro Black Series? Lego set? I smell profit...

Thinking the same thing here I’d love to see one bond and become grogu’s best friend

Mando needs a new starship and a droid companion for sure. I hope the next seasons lead to that. How he slowly gains a crew, and ship. Season 1 was about his armament and armor

Agreed. It would also make for great development as he never trusted any droid until the IG unit, so using that trust he formed to give the basilisk a chance would be cool to see.

@@SandraOrtmann1976 who are you, Hondo?

Seeing Din, Bo and company riding a handful of them into battle in a new Siege of Mandalore would be amazing

I'd love to see him getting one via a reimagining of the old WEG scenario involving one with a less disappointing end. I believe it was named "Revenant" I believe the adventure was in one of the Star Wars: Adventures books from right around when the Tales of the Jedi sourcebook was released...stupid Imperial officer finds a Basilisk and rebuilds and rearm it to a "modern" standard. It a mandalorian historian infiltrates the SSD it was being rebuilt on...and the players get assigned by their superiors (assuming they're rebels) to find out what the hell the Imperials were doing. Things go rather predictably, and it ends with the droid active and tearing its way out through the ship as the players try to get the hell out of dodge ...the players escape and the droid either goes down to swarms of TIEs and other cap ships shooting at it or it escapes into hyperspace while the players escape the area. The basilisk coming online during that adventure is a definite "OH SHIT!" moment...especially with the timing of the adventure which was set right around the classic star wars comics involving Mandalore.

@@Equinox_NZ though unless Din gives those droids to every important Person, I wouldn't give one to Bo. She is just as likely to turn those weapons against you as against your enemies. And given the way how competent her unit is, she has to train 16 hours per day, eats 120 seconds and sleeps the rest. She has the skill Set required to Master any weapon in around half the time you do. So she will be better than you.

@@biggsdarklighter0473 Fair point 😄

Bonding 😂

They were as much father and son as brothers- Kal Skirata

Exactly!

*the party don't start fades in but it's violent*

@@geetslys could we see one in the mandalorian ylu think?

Love the Mandarinians and Mondolarians

Yep, I could imagine that happening as well 😂

@@geetslys wait, so you understand who I'm referencing?

@@Naofumi-Iwatani Did he stutter?

Indeed the redesign of the basilisk is just...sad. It completely misses the point of these neo-crusaders who lived like techno-vikings killing and taking because they could with the Basilisk exemplifying this brutality. Now they're just another clunky fightercraft you'd see on any world, hell you don't even ride on top of them anymore. If the Mandalorian ever does bring one in I really hope they reconsider that decision and retcon them to the original since technically right now in the Disney canon neither model is canon so they really need to go with the badass one.

@@Goldenkitten1 wait, they re-designed them?

​@@ArgentWolf95 Yeah, just look them up on wookiepedia, they could likely explain it better than I ever could. But the short version is they used to be terrifying and now they're really clunky looking (unless Boba Fett or the Mandalorian changed this as I've not caught up on them after Boba Fett turned into "The Mandalorian and Boba Fett is there occasionally").

I hope so too!

They kinda cant after Revan and the republic won he made the Mandalorians destroy them and their creators are long gone so unless they spirted a few away they are gone.

@@matthewchristian9591I like to think a shadow cabal of collectors took a few and keep them safe. It’s full on headcanon, verging on fanon.

@Spencer Holden they would have had to kill the Mandalorians to get them i like the idea a few Mandalorians refused the order and escaped with their droids

😢

Can’t they take snippets of audio from the original game and use it in the remake?

Same VO as Dash Rendar.

@@pieter-bashoogsteen2283 that's a bit morally questionable, not to mention that would require the whole game's voice acting to be handled that way, audio quality has only improved over the years and reusing old snippets of a voice actor from 2003 would definitely be jarring for a modern remake.

Anyone can tell me what is the name of the soundtrack of that part?

We should pray these droids get re-canonised. Maybe reappear in The Mandalorian

@@jamiewalsh3349 how about some mandalorian scientists somehow getting their fingers on an archeological find from Planet Taris?

I'm not sure if a Mandalorian from the time would agree or get ticked off from the comment...might depend upon the Mando and what Basilisks they're talking about.

why are you everywhere i go

less of a pet, more of a lifelong companion

I wouldn't say NoP canonized the events, it treats them like in-universe myths

@@goodmind4940 You do have a point there. Though since Exar Kun has certainly been recanonized thanks to Solo: A Star Wars Story and the sourcebook 'Gadgets and Gear' (crediting him as the inventor of the double-bladed Lightsaber), the possibility of it all being explicitly recanonized is certainly higher than in the case of most other Star Wars Legends-stuff.

Yup try blocking 8 plus laser, you filthy casual 😆

@@joeojeda4651 And Missiles😂

*INTERNALLY* screaming? 😂

"I thought we agreed to never use those weapons ever again!"- Master McBitch of the jedi council After his entire batallion of jedi Was obliterated by a Single BWD. "You forbade us from building New ones with Beskar Armour"- Mandalore the restitutor, formally known as as Sarah of Clan Chad, "This one carries Cortosis plate armor, and is as such not affected by such old treaties!"

Nah, sadly not. The gauntlet is way to slim

SWTOR does, technically.

@@minicle426 Never played SWTOR sadly.😢

when? i only remember the modified at-st. which planet?

It wasn’t in the later versions.

@@eren34558 it was on the ps2/wii Bespin level, which was different than the later gen console and pc versions, both in when it happened in the game, and the purpose of the level.

That was a fun bossfight. Won by pummeling him with boxes :)

I believe he referenced the Mythosaur, not the Basilisk. Mythosaurs were these gargantuan monsters similar to a Krayt Dragon the Mandalorians hunted to extinction on Mandalore when they conquered the planet and their skull became the overall symbol of the Mandalorian faction. Clans have their own unique symbol also.

@@Sorfex1 Ah so the Mandos pulled a Britain

I'm unsure how many mandos would have to Die in order to supply the jedi with the beskar required.

It's even more convenient they speak English!

Just speculation, but I don't doubt the Mandalorians with their fleet at the time had massive space superiority over Basilisk, probably due to sheer numbers alone. Combine that with a surprise attack and I can see how they could be forced into a surrender.

Additionally, the ones spoken of are the Mandalorian models, not the originals. The Mandalorians added Beskar armor and more weapons.

They were called war droids for a reason, and were used that way even before the mandos got their gloves on them.

Oddly one does appear in certain versions of the Force Unleashed.
