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 15: The Believer - S2-E7

Continuity mistake: In a semi-comedic moment, Mando throws his blaster at one of the marauders, since it does not work. After the prolonged fight, he slips back into the truck, and when he comes out, he has a new blaster in his holster.

Chapter 16: The Rescue - S2-E8

Continuity mistake: In the scene with all the Mandalorians just hanging out at some bar, Boba Fett retorts at Sasha Banks' character; "if it isn't the quacta calling the stifling slimy." There's a cut and his rangefinder is inexplicably tilted forward. It is back to normal in the rest of the scene. (00:06:15)

Chapter 16: The Rescue - S2-E8

Other mistake: Shoulder to shoulder, Cara Dune and Fennec Shand advance shooting Stormtroopers on a bridge. But look where Ming-Na Wen is aiming; she's never gonna hit anything in front of her, and if there's any threat all the way to the left where she is pointing her blaster, it is never shown. (00:14:50)

Sammo

Chapter 16: The Rescue - S2-E8

Continuity mistake: When the two blue Mandalorians surprise-attack the stormtroopers that are behind Cara and Fennec, the troopers fall down like bowling pins; the ones in the front are falling off the bridge and the ones behind them fall prone against the edges of the bridge. Except in the following shot it is not the case, nobody seemingly fell off the bridge and the first people we see are belly up, not down. (00:15:05)

Chapter 16: The Rescue - S2-E8

Continuity mistake: After the sequence of the Dubstep Troopers charging with tubes bursting free, the all-female team is in a cargo holding. Fennec says "Cover me"; then she advances walking in two entirely different stances between shots. (00:16:00)

Sammo

Chapter 16: The Rescue - S2-E8

Continuity mistake: Fennec kills the stormtrooper that Cara was about to bludgeon with her jammed gun; her braid is behind her when the camera is behind her, in front of her shoulder when the camera is in front of her. (00:17:15)

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 16: The Rescue - S2-E8

Continuity mistake: At the end, when The Mandalorian takes his helmet off so Grogu can see his face, the helmet is placed on the floor facing backwards. When Grogu is placed on the floor, it is now facing forward. Then when Luke walks away, the final shot shows it facing backwards again. (00:36:50)

Chapter 16: The Rescue - S2-E8

Other mistake: The highly advanced and powerful Dark Troopers, when faced with a closed blast door, punch it repeatedly with their fists rather than simply prying the two doors apart. Even having dented it slightly, they don't wedge their hands into the cracks to open it, they just keep slowly denting it...more.

Suggested correction: The reason why the Dark Troopers didn't wedge their hands through the door was because during that time the door was already closed shut when they arrived at the bay door. If you watch at the beginning where Mando was trying to close the door before the Dark Troopers and exit their station but as Mando was closing the door the door wasn't fully closed but it was closing, so a Dark Trooper used its hand to open the door while the door was closing. If the door was closed then they would have punched their way through. And as you can see if you watch one dark trooper escaped but the others had to punch their way though.

Not my point. They manage to dent the door easily enough. So when faced with a closed door they could have made a dent, then put their hands into that crack to pull the sides apart. But they don't, they just keep slowly hammering it. They weren't punching through, just denting it, pointlessly.

Jon Sandys

The first Dark Trooper also punches the Mandalorian's helmet repeatedly instead of any other fighting move, and the Dark Troopers try to punch their way through the blast doors on the cruiser's bridge instead of cutting, tearing or shooting their way in. It seems their programming is limited in this way. This is still a mistake but it becomes a deliberate mistake or a character mistake.

Chapter 16: The Rescue - S2-E8

Continuity mistake: In the opening recap of the episode a scene is shown where the Mandalorian is sending a speech to Moff Gideon, which was originally from the end of episode 15. In episode 15, he says "He (Grogu) means more to me than you will ever know," but in the recap he says "It means more to me than you will ever know."

Chapter 16: The Rescue - S2-E8

Other mistake: The inexplicably omniscient Moff Gideon mentions that Mando fired his wrist launcher's "one and only salvo." This would confirm what could be assumed by the dialogue with the Armorer in episode 1.3: the Whistling Birds are rare, and made of Beskar. Mando uses them in 1.3 immediately, then he still has them in 1.6 to use them against Burg. He replenishes his ammo in the season finale so we can assume that includes the birds. In season 2 he uses them in 2.1 in the prologue and then in 2.6. Seems abnormal to say the least that he'd have still some to use in 2.8 with no more refills.

Sammo

Chapter 16: The Rescue - S2-E8

Plot hole: In the previous episode, Mando and the others got a hold of the coordinates of Moff Gideon's cruiser, but this episode begins with them capturing Dr. Pershing in a shuttle, and after that they locate Bo-Katan and Koska and get them on board for the mission. How they found these people is unknown, and cruisers are not planets, they tend not to be stationary. Hard to imagine Mando and the others get into weird and complex subquests to get some help while Gideon at one point, which could be in just moments, could hyperspace in some other sector and leave them with no clue where to find him.

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.

Answer: It's possible it's a different race of Jawas. The ones we saw before with red eyes were on Tatooine. These are a different group of Jawas on a different desert planet, thus probably have mutated or adapted different isolated from the other groups and have their own traits.
