So I know I said I was done, but I just found a video that picked up on yet MORE evidence that the mystery man in episode 5 is Boba Fett:
So we can hear both the "gabbled beeping" from Boba in the Special edition added scene in ANH, and when he walks we hear the same spurs chinking that we hear from Boba in ESB If it isn't Boba Fett, the show makers sure are trying to make us THINK it is.

Yeah, I honestly think that theory is more likely than it being Fett. Not that I would mind seeing Fett (I do not hate the idea of him returning as much as some of the others on this thread), but I think the lost daughter angle seems a better fit for the type of stories they are likely going to want to tell. Plus, that pose on the Funko model does seem to have a bit of a "gal with some gumption" look to it.

Does that Funko have a name? If not, I could see it being an older Sabine from Rebels. Or just some random female Mando. I don't think the color palete really has any indication to a relation to Boba. Afterall, there was a Mando in the culvert in one of the early episode on the Mando that also have a Boba-esk color scheme
If it's Sabine, I could see that jiving well with the rumour about Asoka being in season 2, since the ending of Rebels had Sabine and Asoka joining up for some new mission

Finally got around to finishing this.
What a terrific little show.
Heartfelt, melancholy, interesting and funny in places, lovely pace to it and definitely captured the "old feel" of SW.
Really enjoyed it.

Quote as I read it was more the suggestion they could seed new characters into The Mando, in prep for a spin off?
Bob Iger, via DenOfGeek wrote:Iger made the comment while speaking to investors at a quarterly earnings meeting (via Variety), saying the company is exploring "the possibility of infusing [The Mandalorian] with more characters and taking those characters in their own direction in terms of series.”
So not necessarily anyone we've seen so far.
And to be honest, adding in further Scum and Villainy types, and hoping for a wider view of the underbelly could well work.

Waiting for my shill money from Spiral Arm Studios
Fixed five seasons wouldn't make much sense. That is a lot of commitment for a show that could have flopped. I would find it unlikely that Disney would have gone much past 2-3 seasons up front.
Self-proclaimed evil Cat-person. Dues Ex Felines
Cato Sicarius, after force feeding Captain Ventris a copy of the Codex Astartes for having the audacity to play Deathwatch, chokes to death on his own D-baggery after finding Calgar assembling his new Eldar army.
It wouldn't surprise if there was a vague plan for 5 seasons along with a rough plot line (like Bablyon 5) and possibly contract option on the relevant actors
but just like Babylon 5 if the show does well they could be persuaded to extend it, and if it starts to fail a swift wrap up might happen

Maybe. I'm trying to parse Clone Wars, Rebels and the Mandalorian into the same time line in an attempt to figure out if she's roughly the right age or not. Still mostly think of Ashoka as a kid, to be honest.
Would she (and Sabine, presumably) be back from their search for wossname from Rebels at this point?
I think the biggest hurdle is making Togruta prosthetics that won't look absurd in live action.

Rosario Dawson is 40, Ahsoka is 45 at the time of The Mandalorian so it's a good age fit. The Mandalorian is set in 9 ABY. Ahsoka and Sabine go looking for Ezra shortly after RotJ in 4 ABY so there's a 5 year gap for them to fit in the Rebels sequel series.Sabine Wren was 16 at the start of Rebels in 4 BBY making her around 29 at the time of the Mandalorian.
