Check it out! Courtesy of Entertainment Weekly we have a new photo from the upcoming animated series Star Wars Rebels, featuring the already heavily teased Inquisitor along with two Stormtroopers:
The most notable part of this photo is not only the Stormtroopers, which are presented in different poses than previously seen, but also the Inquisitor's Lightsaber. The Saber was previously revealed to have a circular hand guard on either side of the hilt, which is said be based on the spinning General Grievous toy Lightsaber by Hasbro. But in this photo, one of the hand guards is missing, leading us to believe that it either folds back or detaches completely from the hilt. And from this view I think it's also safe to assume that it does not spin like the toy that inspired it.
Rebels is set 14 years after the events of Episode III: Revenge Of The Sith and will tell the definitive story of how the Rebel Alliance of the Original Trilogy came to be. The Inquisitor will be the primary antagonist of the show and is tasked by the Empire to hunt down and destroy the last of the Jedi.
I don't about you, but the more I see and learn about this show, the more anxious I am to see it. If you feel the same way, please come and geek out with us in Club SWU on Facebook!
