    New Star Wars Rebels character and toy reveal.

    The figure is in the slideshow.

    You are a bold and courageous person, afraid of nothing. High on a hill top near your home, there stands a dilapidated old mansion. Some say the place is haunted, but you don't believe in such myths. One dark and stormy night, a light appears in the topmost window in the tower of the old house. You decide to investigate... and you never return...

    Kilian Plunket used to do comic work, I think.

    The character reminds me of the "Build-A-Droid" bins at Disney World.

      I like Chopper. I can totally see the original Ralph Mcquarrie R2 design influence.

            They wanted to make him look "retro" because this series takes place four years before Ep.IV?

            I guess they completely forgot Artoo was in Ep. I-III

                That's a good point. Very true.

                It's still pretty cool, though.

                News travels fast, I was just finding about this on Rebel Scum.

                  Retro meaning they went back to Ralph Mcquarrie's original Star Wars designs for inspiration. In the video they mention Chopper's look was based on Ralph Mcquarrie's early R2-D2 design sketches.
