I really do think bringing back Maul is a bit lame. How can they justify him surviving, really.
Savage is a cool character. He will be very versatile in the future to. He doesn't have allegiance with anyone, so he is a wild card.
One reason I think he was so powerful so quickly is the spell the witches used to transform him.
And I would defintely buy a 1/6 scale figure if SS does one.
Agreed on everything you just said.
Bringing back MAUL is lame. But yet I find myself excited about seeing him. Will he have a fight scene? How will his temperament be now that he, being a proud and honorable warrior, was bested by a padawan jedi that he should have never let live? Will he have legs (organic or inorganic)? But it is also Star Wars..so lame is not a strange thing here. I don't care how serious people take SW, EVERY incarnation (films, books, comics, games, cartoons) is full of many lame ideas. It isn't poetry, and most of the popular concepts of the original storylines were taken by Lucas by other classic films and media.
Savage is going to around for a long time in this cartoon I think. I mean I'm not even sure if he'll stay a villain, I think his only allegiance is to mother but I'm not sure if that will last if he finds out he was also used by her to kill his brother. I wouldn't be surprised if at one point, eventually, Savage kills mother and that whole witch tribe out of vengeance (I'm not sure if they are apart of any EU stories that are currently considered canon that take place after the clone wars).
I also do agree that his witchcraft may have amped up his force powers as well. He is a very rare creature, a fighter "born" from powerful witchcraft (that is a power that is highly respected by the jedi and Count Dooku) and trained to learn the force (and his powers are almost Starkiller-like). He's got to learn to block the lightning, and as he becomes more disciplined with his powers, I expect he'd be a powerful foe that several characters may have to team up to defend against or just run away from. I mean he's going to be antagonostic to the jedi as well as the sith, so his fighting capabilities need to go beyond what we have seen on the show so far, and I think it will because that seems to be the direction they are taking him in. He's already held his own against Skywalker, Obi Wan, Asaj and Dooku (sans the lightning).
And I never bought any SS piece ever yet. I'm a huge Kratos fan and didn't buy that, but I will buy this in the first second.
If you don't want to come off as a racist, don't say racist things. Care to qualify the statement?
