Chapter 1: The Mandalorian - S1-E1

Continuity mistake: When IG-11 shoots the first batch of criminals, the natural light changes between shots. Look at the aerial view immediately before Mando's arrival; the robot is casting a distinct shadow at 7 o'clock and the corpses to the right are next to the shadow of the building. All different from the shot that follows. (00:29:30)

Chapter 1: The Mandalorian - S1-E1

Continuity mistake: Mando meets his contact at the guild to get paid. Watch as he gets seated; on the table, there's a pile of little tiles. And then, his guy puts down on the table...that same pile of colourful Imperial credits. The position of the beeping locating devices changes too. (00:11:05)

Chapter 1: The Mandalorian - S1-E1

Continuity mistake: "The blue guy" puts his credits down on the table hoping to buy his freedom from the hunters. Next time the Mythrol and his captors are in frame, gone are the credits from the table; actually you can see them again when the mug is knocked off the table, but in that case, they were in the wrong spot, for the mug to be blocking them from view.

Chapter 8: Redemption - S1-E8

Plot hole: The flamethrowing trooper enters, entirely on his own, walking slowly through the door, and neither Cara nor Greef, who are armed and not wounded, shoot at him, for no discernible reason other than giving the Child a little pyromancer moment. And of course, Gideon wants the baby ALIVE; burning the place to a crisp kinda goes against all of that, but he is the one who ordered that. (00:20:50)

Chapter 5: The Gunslinger - S1-E5

Plot hole: Something about the timing of the episode does not work. The two pursuers see in their first day of chase a dewback (animal mount). They storm Fennec's position when it gets dark. They quickly capture her, and then Mando wanders the desert to catch the dewback. It takes him the whole night to do so and get back to the encampment, which seems an absurdly long time considering he had it in his sight (and was even sending for it his partner who had no thermal vision). This also implies that Fennec was in the middle of the desert with no mean of transportation of her own.

Chapter 4: Sanctuary - S1-E4

Plot hole: Mando tells Cara that news will travel of what happened on the planet and it's unsafe to stay there. Then he says that he'll go and leave the kid to live there. He is a bounty hunter, a veteran at the profession. He can't have forgotten about fobs and how they work, and that the bounty is on the kid. Wherever Mando himself goes makes zero difference. (00:31:25)

Chapter 3: The Sin - S1-E3

Plot hole: It is a well-known fact that Mando is the one who got the bounty for the target, and the bounty has already been cashed in. Fobs are, as shown, specific for just one target and bounty hunters return them. Yet everyone hanging around at the cantina has still theirs. And again, the bounty was already cashed in, and surely the imperial guy does not have another bucket of incredibly rare and precious metal to give away.

Chapter 8: Redemption - S1-E8

Greef Karga: He missed!
The Mandalorian: He won't next time.
Cara Dune: Our blasters are useless against him.
Greef Karga: Hey, let's make the baby to the magic hand thing. Come on, baby! [Waving his fingers] Do the magic hand thing. [The Child coos.] I'm out of ideas.

Chapter 13: The Jedi - S2-E5

Question: Ahsoka's "head-tails" (called Lekku, technically) seem to have creases in them. Are these meant to be scars from battles, or are they just folds in whatever material was used to make the prosthetics? With all the high production values elsewhere, this would seem to be a fairly ropey oversight if so.

Jon Sandys

Chosen answer: They could be just like wrinkles from age, like the elderly Togruta in the Zygerrian slaver arc in The Clone Wars series, as Ahsoka is considerably older than her animated appearances. I think there is probably a character design/stylisation aspect to it as well - the other Togruta we've seen in live action, Shaak Ti, has four segments or folds in her lekku that were not visible in her Clone Wars appearances, so it would seem the character design in Clone Wars and Rebels reduces such features.
