Maybe they got cyber bullied into editing the Grand Inquisitor and needed a couple more days? Like what happened with sonic?

I really don't get the hate over the inquisitor design. Unless I'm missing something he just looks a bit wider? I'm not expecting someone to look like they leapt out of the rebels character design.

I think it's because the Rebels design was based off of what the Pau'ans looked like in Revenge of the Sith, and this wider-faced look just doesn't really match the established design philosophy of the species.

I'm not expecting someone to look like they leapt out of the rebels character design. It's probably more that they already had someone of his species in the movies so the look is already established.  I don't care but I understand why people have commented on it.

To be fair that actor (Flying Man in Mad Max, Train Man in Matrix, Mouth of Sauron in LotR) famously has a long thin head and they can supplement that further with prosthetics, and I think limiting your actor choices to similarly long men might be more than they'd like.

It's kind of funny that they went the opposite direction and went for someone with a comparatively wide head and face, as they go. Again I've not seen rebels so I'm not too fussed and I'll judge the character and the acting on merit.

Our people have oval heads, that's the only rule. Any orientation in space is acceptable.

The collar design also helps exaggerate the shape of his face which is something they can't really do for the Grand Inquisitor.

You’ve also underestimated the Star Wars fan penchant for complaining about Disney-era things that are generally fine. See also; live-action Cad Bane

"How dare live-action not look 1:1 with either a completely different character or its animated appearance" is such a weird hill for people to die on

The biggest own if that complaint was when they 'shopped the original live action characters like Dooku to look like their animated versions.

It's still funny that the Inquisitor looks like someone's uncle though. edit: you know drat well that this Inquisitor's Twitter avatar is a photo of him wearing Oakleys while in his truck.

The others look fine IMO but I’m not sure why they made Dooku’s head look so squashed in the cartoon

They were using the Tartakovsky series as a jumping off point for the designs, so it's just the result of taking ideas that work in 2D, then trying to make them work in 3D.

To be fair, the only live-action character appearances people are complaining about are alien characters that were originally introduced in the animated series, AND ones that were based on alien designs that already appeared in the movies. So I see their point, but I'm not going to cry or die on a hill complaining about it.

It's probalby just the Live Action > Cartoon > Live Action (but different) thing, since I haven't seen too many people complaining about the Pykes looking significantly different from the cartoon, and they were never featured in live action before. Though maybe having them introduced with small helmeted heads first in Solo, and then unmasking them in BoBF helped to ease people into the new design.

Do the Dathomir sidequest first if it's your second playthrough. It's really fun to plow through the rest of the game with the two-bladed saber.

But they appear to have added a ton of features, changed up combat, added character classes, hub worlds, and just a ton of poo poo. It's an entirely different game. I may have to pick it up, it looks pretty sweet.

And yes, they did make a Lego The Force Awakens a while back (it was actually pretty good in my opinion)

Only one I didn't. I like most of the LEGO games. They're a fun mindless distraction. The LEGO Indiana Jones was the first game I ever got 100% of the achievements for on the XBox (because they're also pretty easy). The only one I ever got bored of and stopped playing was Harry Potter.
