TK Rome[501st] Posted July 25, 2014 Report Share Posted July 25, 2014 Watching the new trailer for Star Wars Rebels and I realized that some of the characters look like they've been lifted directly out of Ralph McQuarrie's sketches. Chiefly the wookiee looking character is drawn from the chewie concept and the C-3PO concept is actually standing next to him. Not to mention those troopers with the open and closing helmets. Pretty exciting if you ask me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daetrin[Admin] Posted July 25, 2014 Report Share Posted July 25, 2014 IIRC those are intentional... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Locitus[Admin] Posted July 25, 2014 Report Share Posted July 25, 2014 The Clone Wars was full of McQuarrie references. So it's most definitely intentional. Dave Filoni has also already said so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dougal[501st] Posted July 25, 2014 Report Share Posted July 25, 2014 McQuarrie's drawings rock! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asmith2591[501st] Posted August 6, 2014 Report Share Posted August 6, 2014 Chopper the new droid from rebels looks extremely similar to the McQuarrie Drawings. They just put out a new drawing that shows originally he was going to have the hemispherical r2 dome. https://www.facebook.com/starwarsrebels/photos/a.230754950414469.1073741828.180356405454324/332421416914488/?type=1&theater Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
