Chapter 1: The Mandalorian - S1-E1

Other mistake: Even if the structure of the door was damaged by the shots shown, Mando, who sprinted to it with remarkable celerity considering he just finished shooting, wouldn't have enough strength to just kick it open (it's visually implied that they took one door each). Needless to say also if the gun was able to punch holes into walls, it should have damaged the unarmored enemies maiming their bodies - obviously it's a limitation due to rating. (00:34:00)

Chapter 1: The Mandalorian - S1-E1

Other mistake: Mando and the droid have trouble dealing with enemies that pin them down into the doorway overwhelming them with firepower, even before the big machine-gun-like weapon is brought in. Then Mando hops on it, and suddenly all the firepower the enemies had and that had the heroes unable to move is gone, entirely, they can't shoot at him when he's a static target, and actually stick all out like perfect targets leaving their cover.

Show generally

Other mistake: The weaponsmith is smelting Beskar in a furnace in the first episode and the metal is liquid without any sort of incandescence. In the credits roll of episode 3, the artwork shows it red-hot, and in the season 2 finale we see it actually getting red-hot.

Chapter 1: The Mandalorian - S1-E1

Other mistake: Greef Karga is lying out the next possible assignments for Mando. He says that there's "a bail jumper, a bail jumper, another bail jumper, a wanted smuggler." Good, but there are 5 pucks on the table. Who's the extra guy? (00:12:00)

Chapter 15: The Believer - S2-E7

Other mistake: Before the tunnel the truck drivers communicated with the base, and the base itself is warning another vehicle about their speed. Despite this level of monitoring, the heroes board the truck taking their sweet time to change in suits and have friendly banter. Considering the convoys are attacked frequently by terrorists, it's hard to imagine that a large discrepancy of that kind would have stayed unchecked.

Chapter 16: The Rescue - S2-E8

Other mistake: Moff Gideon is holding the Child under the threat of the darksaber. He tells Mando "Drop the blaster." Mando killed the two last enemies with his spear (the second one even choking him with it) and went straight to open the door of the cell, no blaster in hand. (00:20:00)

Chapter 15: The Believer - S2-E7

Other mistake: Somehow during the episode Cara and Fennec, on foot, manage to get to the base at the same time as Mando, who is on a truck. Moreover, Cara is the one with Mando's armor in a sack, but when Mando emerges from Slave-1, he changed clothes, and he's back in full uniform.

Chapter 12: The Siege - S2-E4

Other mistake: "Blue" checks out Cara Dune's record and talks to her in stellar terms, obviously she's a great gal. When Mando and her met in episode 1-4, Cara said that if she even tried to board a vessel registered with the New Republic, she'd be captured and be put in jail for life.

The Mandalorian (2019)

Chapter 12: The Siege - S2-E4

Other mistake: Out of weaponry and with the enemy planes that got a hold of them, all hope is lost for the heroes, even if for some reason the fighters didn't stay behind them to aim but overpassed them. The first TIE fighter that is destroyed when they are saved is shot from the front, but Mando's ship arrives coming from behind them. (00:07:15)

Chapter 11: The Heiress - S2-E3

Other mistake: Mando takes off with his jetpack, and we see later that the shore is not too far away...as Mando watches the sunset while his saviours demolish the ship in an explosion. He took his sweet time to get back ashore, especially considering that the Mandalorians mysteriously appeared to save him in seconds and the ship was in the middle of the ocean. (00:13:40)

Chapter 10: The Passenger - S2-E2

Other mistake: Mando's ship is crawling with spiders, but the X-wing pilots (who are amazing marksmen, apparently) exterminate every single one of them with their blasters. The ship itself was full of those, a few dozen rifle shots couldn't possibly get rid of them.

The Mandalorian (2019)

Chapter 6: The Prisoner - S1-E6

Other mistake: Since they received a distress signal from a beacon, the X-wings...destroy the station the signal comes from, instantly. Maybe it's better not to ask for help (Notice the fact that they continue to attack it and in the concept art at the end of the episode the station is shown as exploding, not just the gunship they were launching).

The Mandalorian (2019)

Chapter 6: The Prisoner - S1-E6

Other mistake: Everyone Mando fought with at the ship turns up alive at the end of the episode, but it's shown in the fight with the devil dude that the doors closed all the way and there's no room between the two sets of doors. There's no space for his head not to be popped like a melon. (00:30:00)

The Mandalorian (2019)

Chapter 1: The Mandalorian - S1-E1

Other mistake: The laser cannon punches decent sized holes into the columns and even cuts through the thick metal of the door (and look with what ease), but it is shown hitting the droid at least 4 times never managing to do any visible damage to it. When at the end of the battle they talk about the 'wound', it's not in one of those spots. (00:33:30)
