For sure, if somebody grabbed it, it'll be here...MF.com is still one of the very few SW sites that won't lick the balls of LFL just to get some low-level official site web employee to re-tweet them.

thanks, DS!

Here's a gif from the first part of the trailer:

Brilliant!
Seeing the trailer this morning, has really piqued my interest in this series!

It's good to see some shiny surface shaders. The all-matte look of the Clone Wars grew tiring for me.

The long neck of the Star Destroyer and the smushed wings of the TIE look fucking stupid though.

They look awesome to me, but probably because I was raised on.

Yeah that's what it reminds me of too. It was always my least favorite action figure ship because it looked so off!

For those interested, if you ever come across something, like this, that you think will be taken down quickly, or may want to be shared, please use the site below to download the mp4 so it can be re-upped.

If Keepvid won't rip it, then deturl will:

Both of these have come in handy before, and will no doubt be useful in the future.

Stay frosty, my friends.

There is a good chance the video is still cached!.... there are articles on the net about how-to

maybe this will help http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/video_cache_view.html .... I've had mixed results with this in the past...

I want to see this!

They're both based on McQuarrie art. Plus the TIE is also based on the Kenner toy, which might have used Ralph's version as a model, too.
I think Pablo said the TIE is meant to be an older model than the ones in the movies, though.

So I licked their nuts for nothing?

Full trailer:

Agreed. The lightsabers look better too, more like the OT style. It would be nice if they have the pulsating/flickering effect like in the films as well instead of the static glow in CW.

Look at my April 28th post above.

And yet, after countless editions and being the leaders in visual FX , Luke's Saber still looks like crap on board the Falcon.

I know. I just don't get that. It would be so easy to fix. I don't even care about the goddamn colors, just smooth out those jump cuts and it would be fine.

Rebels will begin airing in October 2014. After viewing X-men: DOFP, my anticipation level is even higher than before.

Got to meet Taylor Gray (Ezra) at SW Weekends today. He couldn't have been nicer to my wife and I. Chatted with us for 3-4 minutes.

He did tell me that characters from the OT and TCW would be appearing in Rebels. He says the quality of animation picks up right where TCW left off, which to me, was superb. They're still working on season 1 episodes right now. He flies back Wednesday for more work.

He's a very bright, engaging kid (born in 93). I hope he finds great success with the series.

Nice, thanks for the info!

So far, we've had Lando confirmed, and there's grafitti of Embo and Cad Bane. Wonder who else? Besides Ahsoka, ofc.

Saw some exclusive Rebels footage at Star Wars Weekends today.

The clip that was shown was Ezra witnessing the Ghost and a TIE Fighter in pursuit over a planet that resembled Dantooine from the Cllone Wars micro series.

The TIE crash lands on the planet and Ezra investigates the crash. At first he appears to want to help the pilot, but ends up stealing little bits of technology from the crashed ship, and says he wants to sell them on the open market. Ezra then fires that laser slingshot at the window of the ship. The slingshot appears to work sort of like a droid popper or an ion weapon in that it disables electronics. Ezra then steals the pilot's helmet and runs away.

Ezra is shown as a street-wise kid who hustles and steals things. This video clip served as a good introduction to his character.

A couple of other clips were shown, featuring Dave Filoni. He said all of the main rebel characters in Rebels were individually wronged by the Empire in some way. A female Mandalorian was also featured as one of the main characters.

No references to storm troopers or the Inquisitor. All the focus at this point appears to be on the group of heroes/rebels.
The animation quality in the clips was outstanding.

^That's great to hear. I'm almost as excited about Rebels as I am about Episode VII.
