    So guys, looks like we are getting Dantooine on SW: Rebels! This is going to be the first planet also previously depicted in ORPA to get a canon equivalent. :D

    I'm seriously hoping the visuals will be just like in the comic or at least similar enough so that it doesn't feel jarring.

    How Old Republic Thematically Connects With the Canon or: Dantooine is the Key to All This

    The new lore clearly states that Mon Montha signed the Declaration of Rebellion against the Empire on the same year S3 of Rebels takes place. Because we are now at the end of S3 is it that much of a stretch to assume she is going to Dantooine to sign it there with Bail and the others?

    Now hear me out guys, but I think that it's awesome if we consider the state of Dantooine in the comics and the strong symbolism of signing the Declaration on that planet in the canon:

    What is the state of Dantooine right now in the ORPA era? It's f*cking occupied. For ten years straight. A big massive symbol of Imperial oppression (different Empire but you get the idea). I think that it is easy to assume that either we will get to see a Liberation of Dantooine at some point in the comic or we will 'see' it happen offscreen during the fall of the Sith and the creation of the modern Galactic Republic (obviously some hundred years from now or something).

    Consider the story of Dantooine now: we have this planet that endured occupation by tyrants for over a decade or more and then fought to win back its freedom! Isn't this the kind of planet a Rebellion (a big middle finger to the Emperor) should be made in? It's the perfect symbol of freedom if we take the actual events of ORPA to some degree as canon. It enhances the background of the formation of the Rebellion in a really beautiful way and gives that event more weight.

    Just wanted to get this off my chest. :D
    You can really see a lot of care was put in the comic's lore and how it is supposed to connect with the bigger picture and I am too hoping Disney gives us a visual continuity nod and makes Dantooine the golden (or green) grassed pasture planet like it was meant to be.

    The fact that Satan McMurderface isn't on the poll is a crime.

    I am literally PRAYING to CTHULHU for this to happen. I'll scream like a little girl on Saturday night if we get the Dantooine we need.

    It's the canon ORPA deserves...but not the one it needs.

    Stan is easily becoming my new favorite now that we have seen him in (dialogue) action.

    He's like a weird mix of Uncle Iroh and Tyrion Lannister. Imagine a CELIBATE TYRION LANNISTER! That's what STAN IS.
    First time I saw the level up screen I tried to click on one of those empty squares to assign points. Instinct is my enemy. :(

    Well, Iroh did also have a drinking problem! Granted, it was just tea, but who knows what else he was putting in that thing...

    I know, right? The kooky eastern wisdom and the drinking obsession and general casualness is what made me think Iroh. And since Tyrion is really the textbook definition of alcoholic... it all evens out in the end, you know?

    Going to take a stab and say this yellow patch is where the whole Khoonda/Battle of Dantooine stuff took place. It's like it was reserved in specific for the whole golden grasslands Jedi Enclave part. This also puts us that much closer to canonizing Revan. ^^

    Just one thing:

    'Your loss is our sauce.'

    In a more serious discussion... I'm wondering how big of a role is that amulet going to play in the plot. That's probably the most intriguing thing in the Chapter right now (that and that Ernesto letter).

    I am feeling it could be part of a big Sith infiltration plot.
