Death Star I technical readouts

Perhaps the Death Star plans are fragmented and each group is retrieving just a fragment. This already happened on the Legends EU, where we had different stories on how the Death Star plans were adquired (Kyle Katarn on the first level of Dark Forces, Rianna Saren on Lethal Alliance, etc...) and they were retconned to be just fragmented data

 

Dude... we see it in construction at the end of Episode III...

 

Please, tell me it wasn't only me who saw a death star shooting in one single frame of the video?!


These guys are good!

 

I suspect your right. With Rebels only going to last 3 to 4 seasons, I could see them being the ones who steals the Death Star plans and 'beamed' it to Leia's Tantive IV to start ANH. It would be a nice climax for the series. http://www.starwarsunderworld.com/2014/11/rumor-rebels-to-last-about-3-or-4.html

 

So the Rebels stole it prior to that scene in Episode III?

 

I think you can stole the plans for something both before, after, and during its construction...

 

If it was stolen prior to building it, it would not have been built. It's the whole plot for ANH. " What's so important, What's he carrying." " The technical readouts to that battle station. I only hope that when the data is analysed a weakness can be found."

Leia had contacts that beamed the transmission of the plans to her ship. It is highly likely that it was the crew from Rebels now that we've seen them have a relationship to the Tantive IV.

 

Maybe they got the "bounty hunters" part wrong and this spin-off turns out to be about the Ghost Crew stealing said plans. It would fall right into when a different rumor that said Rebels should air it's final season.

Still, Boba Fett should be the antagonist, hired by Jabba the Hutt to get the plans but he obviously fails and the Ghost crew gets them to Leia, while Boba is forced to be Jabba's bodyguard for screwing up.

 

So the bounty hunters that are to hunt down the Millenium Falcon in The Empire Strikes Back are supposed to be the ones that stole the death star plans in A New Hope. It would make more sense to put this before Return of the Jedi and have the Bounty Hunters take out the Bothans who Palpatine let get a hold of the death star plans.

Also there is a EU book called Darksaber about a Hutt built death star, but I never read it.

 

I don't think the rumor ever said it was the same bounty hunters, everyone just thought that. They said it would be MvS's TFA character but young leading the cast.

 

Makes me think about MvS character a little now. Is he a bounty hunter, rebel spy, or maybe he is Kanan, but then that movie would be a Rebels live action and I don't know if I'd like to see one. Maybe I'm just off on the whole Rebels crew being the ones stealing the plans, but it would be cool. Interesting rumors though.

 

I think MvS's "Montross" character is just a friend of Han from his old smuggling glory days.

 

Dude, when the rebels stole the plans to the death star they weren't trying to keep the empire from building one, the empire would still have copies of the plan laying around in backup devices and such.

and by theway, the person who marked my post as dumb, I was responding to this particular line "This would suggest that planning for Death Star construction is already underway contemporary with Rebels Season 1", we know the Death Star was being constructed by the end of Episode 3. Assumingthat its only in the planning stages 15 years later... that is dumb and a huge contradiction.

I am sorry, but you guys... its like you haven't watched the movies. Also one of those spinoff movies is almost certainly going to use the"death star plans" plot, so they wouldnt use it on a television show.
