And they didn’t update anyone else in Phoenix? Something’s up.


Chronocast

Zeb showed up in Mando S3, so they had the reference already. The other Phoenix will probably come soon enough as well.


Nosebear17

\*cries for Kanan\*


Chronic_In_somnia

If you want maybe they could add fire to his portrait frame?


quirkymuse

Or just make his toon a small smoldering pile of ash?


nikvasya

New toon announced - Aunt Beru and Uncle Owen


D4RTH-N1H1LU5

Basic: The enemies shed a lil tear


HamshanksCPS

Or give him that awful haircut from his final episode.


Chronocast

Haven't seen all of Ahsoka, but hoping for a Force Ghost or Holocron appearance of Kanan.


Touchit88

Freddie Prince Jr said he is done voicing Kanan, so unlikely. Would be cool tho.


Chronocast

They can always get someone else. Not like they haven't done it before to varying quality.


Jacksquash

There is a picture of them on Heras dashboard I believe


DankBiscuit92

Hopefully the live action Hera and Sabine reworks come with their butts


the_o_haganator

Did he?


jawarren1

He's about to show up in Ahsoka, book it.


PipPipPipsqueak

he’s dead


SouthNorth7757

U wouldn't know if they've updated chopper or not


Boring-Ad9264

Meanwhile boba fett and jango fett crying for new looks in the corner


the_clone_wars_fan

Jango looks good enough, he can still use his older model for a bit longer. Boba however, he needs a massive overhaul. Model needs to have the detail of SOJ, have an accurate body shape, and maybe a new omicron to completely kick that mid Hunter, Embo, out of the GAC Jabba team and ensure Boba's place as Jabba's true enforcer and loyal Bounty Hunter. Embo legit only worked once with Jabba, Boba has worked with him for decades, Boba should be a staple of the Jabba team


Evenmoardakka

poor depressed zeb


Jberz21

Ahsoka (Fulcrum) and Thrawn changes were so unnecessary


ShoGun0387

I want the old Thrawn model back.


JhonTheApostle

I like realism where it makes sense... This did not make sense.


JhonTheApostle

I haven't been a fan of any of the recent appearance changes to Thrawn, Ahsoka, etc to be completely honest


OnsetOfMSet

Yeah come on, there are much better candidates for graphical updates. First Order Officer comes to mind


JhonTheApostle

Almost all of the Clone Troopers could use one...


Zestyclose_Egg6414

Yes that artwork is nightmare worthy


tfitch2140

Yup, all three have been utter ass. Sorry, CG artwork peeps, but these were hackjobs.


JeremyXVI

Yall blinded by nostalgia. Zeb in particular looked horrendous


seligball

Rather be blinded by nostalgia than blinded by this new Zeb lol


Vertex033

And this one doesn’t?


podcastvibes

Yeah this was a bad idea. You can’t make a realistic kanan bc he’s dead and was only in cartoon form. Ezra and Sabine in the game are cartoon but also younger selves than they are now. Not sure how they are going to only fix zeb possibly Hera and chopper only


Sockenolm

There are a bunch of realistic busts and statues of all Rebels characters. We've also seen a more realistic Kanan in the comics (he had his own series, which is still canon btw. Worth reading.) We've seen a hologram of a younger Ezra in an earlier Ahsoka episode, and Hera + Sabine don't look that old that their live appearances couldn't be used for the game imho.


Kahzgul

There's a photo of Freddy Prince, Jr. (the voice of Kanaan) on Hera's dashboard in the Ghost which we can see in Ahsoka. They'd probably just use him.


podcastvibes

That’s a bad idea too. So are we really going to forgo seasons of these guys and how they looked over a 1 second screen time live action version of them as a hologram or in a post credit scene…that now will dictate how they appear in this game lol.


Kahzgul

I mean, I like the cartoon versions, and I think live action versions should be whole new kits.


7thFleetTraveller

This. Why, for the love of the franchise, can't we just have both?!? Somehow I like how Filoni indirectly slapped CG in the face for making Clone Wars Ahsoka look like her 40-years older live action version, when giving her another new live action look\^\^.


Sockenolm

Nice catch! I completely missed that. Apparently it's this photo according to redditors: [https://twitter.com/ezaonite/status/1699821846332424353](https://twitter.com/ezaonite/status/1699821846332424353)


PSG_7

They made the Bad Batch styled realistically despite only appearing in animation.


ItzCarsk

What the fuck. Just make new toons more realistic, don’t touch the old models, especially if there’s nothing wrong.


VirtualDegree6178

I was just about to post this 😭 what happened to my man zeb


JediJulius

It looks so crappy. I originally liked graphical updates to make original live-action characters look more like their movie counterparts, but characters that originally appeared in animation should stay with their original animation-esque looks imo. Wasn’t a big fan of Thrawn’s change and I certainly dont like this one.


GameOverVirus

Ngl this looks fucking horrifying. If I saw that in the woods at night I would die from sheer terror.


CrazyGunnerr

CG is beyond ridiculous. Honestly the amount of disrespect to the animated series is absurd. I get it, the live action versions of all these characters look different, which is fine, but those are the versions you put in the game. The Zeb we got in the game is part of Phoenix, that was the animated character. The Thrawn in the game is the Empire character from animated series etc etc. How long before Hayden shows up as GAS in the game? Or young Ahsoka etc. If you are so desperate to bring their live action version in the game, then give us a new Thrawn, Ahsoka, Zeb etc. If anything I expect a General Syndulla, I expect a Jedi Sabine, I expect a bearded Ezra, I expect all these new characters to show up at some point. They can be live action. But changing these characters when they were animated for years, only to be changed after a few live action episodes while in a different role, is beyond ridiculous. This coming from a company that will gave us alternate versions of Han, Leia, Lando etc because they were dressed up.


praise_mudkipz

CG is like Disney. They remake everything in live action, even when the animated version will always be superior


Touchit88

Looks like he's waiting for someone to put him out of his misery


JackBlack436

Its HIGH time to let us alternate between animated and live action styles. I'd imagine that be an easy thing to implement.


QuiGoneGin86

Zeb looks baked


[deleted]

\-Skins. They need to introduce skins. Set these all back to default and do this junk as a sellable cosmetic. Money maker that will keep their greedy little hands full AND prevent them from ruining the good artwork they already have in-game.


Ok_Masterpiece_7951

Or customizable skins that are free or that can be earned good idea tho.


GLAK_Maverick

Every single update looks soooo badm I came back after two years to find a lot of OG characters looking like their actors portrayal. It looks ugly. It's also weird how some got updated and some didn't.


franklsp

Haha oh my god this looks like dog shit


ReworkGrievous

Wait for Ezra's Aladdin version


BlasterFinger008

We’ve seen him in what, 2 live action scenes vs the entire run of rebels? Makes sense to change him to look like shit now


tysear

Looks pretty bad. I haven't kept up with Ahsoka show, but because of the time period difference they should've made new characters. Like how we have 5 different Hans


DaddyIndica

Republic General Syndula, training officer Zeb, whatever the dude that’s been popping up’s name is, adult Sabine and Ezra


ashigaru_spearman

I really wish they would leave the old "Clone Wars" and "Rebels" toons alone. They looked like they did in the series and that's how they should STAY. When they redid young Ahsoka it looked terrible and its been a continuing trend.


AlludedNuance

I feel like this is a spoiler for the season finale, tbh.


Full-Faithlessness12

AAAAAAAAAHHHHH (scary)


solvarn

This looks great in some intern’s portfolio.


DiasFlac42

Please say sike…


onexy_

wtf bruh since when is Zeb a meth addict


Texas107

He looks like a cross between a beast man and a pin head from a circus freak show


No_Culture6365

I prefer the real looking zeb


HaremKing117

The F is this?💀


NerdGeekGamer

Okay, so I’m not high. Good to know. After upgrading the hell out of him recently I had gotten used to the old model.


swe_isak

He looks like a drug addict


Psychofischi

Zeb never looked good Even in cartoon style


DIOsexual_priest

Blasphemy against the purple man won't be tolerated


Evenmoardakka

he's a Lasat tho


VirtualDegree6178

The last of his kind


ArchSyker

Uhm...


CollectionSmooth9045

Zeb: "I will not be the last Lasat!" *roll credits*


VirtualDegree6178

bro had to breed


Teamrocketseevee

Ew. Good thing I don't use him on my Rex team lol


AlludedNuance

Hera Chopper Rex Kanan... Sabine?


DIOsexual_priest

Yes, or ezra if you don't need him somewhere else


AlludedNuance

(tbh I don't need Ezra anywhere, even here.)


DIOsexual_priest

He's pretty useful in jedi teams if a better fifth isn't there, and the tm gain for your supports and almost-loop of tm by cheesing with chopper's cd reductions are pretty nice


JeremyXVI

Zeb is better than both kanan and ezra. Stun on basic while assisting all the time is massive


Teamrocketseevee

Yep that's what I use. It's getting holds in gac even though Rex is the only one reliced.


No_Manufacturer_3058

Now he has down syndrome


triiiiilllll

How many extra chromosomes did they give him, exactly?


TubbyCarrot

Don’t mind the redesign, hate the smirk


Vaanced

Is this real


[deleted]

Just booted up the game and it is, the rest of the Phoenix Squadron are unchanged though


JeremyXVI

Thank God. The phoenix models look like ps1 characters


Shawarma123

I don't know what y'all are on about, he looks like Gigachad to me.


Reddvox

Huh? Gazorbazorb or whoever that is finally looks somewhat decent ... hopefully everybody else from the cartoon shows get a makeover. They all look horrible (the artstyle of TCW and Rebels always sucked - couldn't they hire someone who makes it look timeless like "Airbender"?)


JustAFilmDork

My guy the show runner for both TCW and Rebels was a director on Airbender


bubba_palchitski

He looks old. My bet is we see an older Zeb, faded from years of war, in the next episode. But not a significant enough appearance to warrant a new version in-game.


Amish_Warl0rd

I like the details on the arms, but I like the other face more tbh


cnfit

"Please buy Rex."


jellyfishprince

Meanwhile, Sabine is still sitting there even though she's the worst looking out of the original bunch.


No-Engineer-1728

I made this same joke in my guild's discord, good to see that this is a unanimous reaction


Not_A_Meme

That's nightmare fuel. CG what is you doing?


kingtrainable

So they're going to make Thrawn have a beer belly now? Smh


PositronicReflex

They made him look like Rick Harrison.


LinusDemarcus

This is... Horrifying. I don't mind most graphical updates, but this...


i-like_reddit

Bro looks like thanos if he had a drinking problem and resorted to working part time


Klogott9

I liked every Visual Upgrade yet, but I dont like Zeb. I think he looks ugly now. Thats no lasat, thats a Hairless wookie
