Yes very interested to see where they go with the baby. At 50 yrs old doesn’t that put its birth shortly before Phantom Menace?
According to canon timeline Mandalorian takes place roughly 39-40 years after Phantom Menace so yeah a decade give or take..

There's a weird imagine I'm sure DeviantArt with assuredly bring us..

Yeah, that's the curious part considering how little we actually know about the species.

There is another one that sits up on the Council during the Prequel movies. Yaddle I believe.

Maybe Emperor hunted them all down after Revenge of the Sith looking for Yoda. This baby is probably the last of its kind in the galaxy, hence the enormous bounty on it.
Good possibility considering the only time the species is mentioned in canon and legends they are Jedi.. So they could have been a threat and being rare that where hunted like the surviving Jedi of order 66 were.

So my thoughts. This is after Jedi and before the new republic is really established. There are still remnants of the Empire around and the reason they wanted this baby killed is because it was a force sensitive.
The baby, (Yoda's species, not Yoda) was dressed in Jedi brown robes. If this was a stasis pod that was in this junk heap for 50 years, that would be a drop in the bucket for Yoda's species. This child could be from the time right after Revenge of the Sith.
Most likely, you are seeing the establishment of the First Order from the remnants of the Empire as an underground crime organization similar to Hydra in the Marvel stuff. Most likely the big bad in this series will be a younger Snoke trying to tear down what Luke is trying to build and gain power.

Might be a stupid question, but the "payment" by the client was seemingly turned into the armor piece, but I guess some of the payment went to "sponsor" other Mandalorian armor, probably inferring that the main character came from humble beginnings, correct?

It sort of felt like watching 39 minutes of Rogue One. Not sure if that's a good or a bad thing. Need more time to get a feel for the world and the characters.

They had a flashback of his family and tribe group getting wiped out by some enemy. I'm guessing that the Mandolorians regrouped after and started helping each other out.
In the first episode several individuals alluded to hearing stories about the Madalorian fighting/bounty capture prowess. Does anyone know what the history is? I think the only Mandalorian that has ever been involved in previous Star Wars films is Bobba Fete and even then not a whole lot was known about him besides the fact he was a renowned bounty hunter working sometimes for Jabba.

Maybe there will be vague hints of him but I don’t think his name will ever be mentioned nor will he show up. I don’t think there will ever be a true big bad villain. Just bumps in the road that The Mandalorian will have to blast out of his way. I imagine most of the villains will be crime bosses like Jabba, other bounty hunters/smugglers, and possibly generals or leftover lieutenants from the old Empire that are trying to form The First Order.

Well according to the prequels, Bobba is a clone. Was Jango a Mandalorean? They said Mandaloreans never take their helmets off.

The empire invaded mandalor and killed most of the population because of a revolt if I remember correctly. That is why Mandalorian warriors are rare like Jedi at this point in history.
I agree. But, how can you have Jedi in this time period without some connection to Skywalker. Might be like that Rebels. There where other force sensitives other than Luke, but the designation Jedi is more bestowed by an order or organization than a type of being.

I thought Darth Maul took over the planet after killing Satine Kryze in front of Obi-Wan. Her sister then led a decades-long resistance until the Wrens united the clans to retake Mandalore.
Edit: Is Bo Katan still the leader of Mandalore in this series? They'd have to make Katee Sackhoff look about 10-15 years older since the character would be pushing mid-50's. (She took the Darksaber in Season 4 of Rebels)

By the time of the Star Wars: Rebels animated series, Mandalore was being occupied by the Empire, leading to a planetary civil war that involves both the Empire and the Rebellion before resulting in a free Mandalore that is, once again, united under one leader — or, as they call them, Mand'alors.
The Mandalorian: What to know.

Except they did not want it killed but captured and remember that scientist was insisting on him being brought back alive.

There might be mention of force sensitives but I’d have to imagine this is around 5 years after ROTJ and 25 years before TFA.
25 years is a long period of time between now and TFA where Luke has been missing for a few years and I’m guessing that Luke’s Academy never really got off the ground and graduated full fledge Jedi, so the new Academy can’t have been around for what? 10-15 years?
That’s a whole decade or more of no Jedi, no Sith and the fledgling Republic. Plus, this takes place in the outer edges of the galaxy. So they probably hardly hear any news of what the Republic is doing, let alone what a new Jedi Order is doing. I think we’ll get little winks here and there of the old trilogy and the new like the baby being Yoda’s species, but I think they’ll go all out with references and character cameos once the Obi-Wan series is up and running. I think they’re going to let this almost be an entire series by itself

Interesting as I was just looking up the actors and noticed that Carl Weathers(Leader of the Bounty Guild) and Werner Herzog(his client for the bounty) are only listed for the 1st episode and no others. So if he is not returning the bounty he he just acquired or no longer working for the guild this could be a really interesting series.
Actually out of 32 people in the first episode listed in the credits only 9 are returning for another episode.

Usually their armor is passed down in each family because beskar armor is so rare/expensive. I think since he's an orphan he is slowly building up his armor set.

The armor pieces seem to be a type of payment for their loyalty.

Something else that is interesting if any of this relates to the EU is that this take place in the same regions as the remaining empire bases. This is also when Thrawn returned and the Solo twins were born.
These hidden bases are what many are speculated is behind the new threat in the upcoming movie.

Just watched...
I’m happy with it. Knew going in that it was going to have a spaghetti western vibe and they nailed that. Right down to the bronco busting scene.
Effects looked good, felt like the SW of old.
Should be a good story...

That’s what it seems like. Pretty cool.
