Star Wars with occasional sarcasm
Fulcrum was revealed in last night’s ‘Fire Across the Galaxy,’ and this is the last post where I’m going to dance around that. In ‘Rebels Recon’ they talk about the returning characters, and give us a peek at Rebels S2.
Meanwhile, at USA Today, Dave Filoni and the voice actor talk about the reveal, and of course there are going to be action figures, though both Vader and Fulcrum will be “used sparingly.”
If you want something NOW, of course there’s a t-shirt designed by Dave Filoni.
The Rebels season finale is tonight, and Lucasfilm has gifted us with a new clip… And the second part of their most recent Dave Filoni interview.
Meanwhile, Rebels is today’s theme at our Tumblr, so there’ll be new stuff at that link throughout the day.
Rebels heads into the finale with ‘Rebel Resolve,’ and Andi chats with Taylor Gray, Freddie Prinze Jr. and Vanessa Marshall about their characters, and Dave Filoni reveals the likely fate of the courier droid. And Pablo answers two questions, including Hera’s exact relation to Cham Syndulla of The Clone Wars.
The second part of the finale will air March 2 on Disney XD – remember it won’t be on the app early.

Some folks at Lucasfilm are raising funds for charity, and here’s your chance to help by bidding on some original art. The items include posters signed by George Lucas and Dave Filoni, plus art from Amy Beth Christensen and other Lucasfilm Animation folks. Proceeds will go to the Breast Cancer Emergency Fund and SF Aids Emergency Fund.
