A Stormtrooper variant, its weaponry and involvement during a big battle during Ahsoka Season 2 has been seemingly leaked. Following on from our reporting last week regarding an Ahsoka crew member, another detail from the upcoming season has come to light.
We previously shared how a content creator known as the Happy Healthy Human on social media had been wearing crew merchandise from a Ahsoka Season 2. Plus, they may have hinted at Ewan McGregor reprising his role as Obi-Wan Kenobi in the show.
In our previous article, we mentioned that an E-11 blaster can be seen in one of his YouTube Shorts/TikToks/Instagram Reels. This has now led to a new tidbit from the Happy Healthy Human himself as spotted by moraimessenger.
The crew member was asked by a viewer in a comment under the video if that was an E-11 in the background of the video. The Happy Healthy Human responded by confirming it is a 3D printed replica of the E-11 he used during the battle on Dathomir in Ahsoka Season 2. Furthermore the social media star said he was a Bazooka Trooper during one day on set. Therefore he retired his “old blaster and had it preserved”.
Video Game To Live Action
Imperial Rocket Launcher Stormtroopers exist already in canon from Star Wars Jedi Fallen Order and later in Jedi Survivor. In Star Wars Battlefront II, the Imperial Rocket Troopers also carry the same Smart Rocket launcher model. In Andor, a Ranger Trooper wields a Smart Rocket too. Prop maker Pete Fielding was asked to specifically create a larger version of the weapon for Season 2 of the show. You can see each version from the three games below.
It is unknown if we will get the Stormtroopers we’ve seen in the video games or an entirely new variant of Stormtrooper that ends up being called the Bazooka Trooper. It would be fantastic to see one of the game created units in the show. The Imperial Rocket Trooper more so given this battle is to take place on Dathomir. Reusing the larger version of the Smart Rocket from Andor seems like a fair bet.
Could there be more connections to Star Wars Jedi Fallen Order? We will just have to wait and see until later this year when Ahsoka Season 2 airs. We still don’t know when Ahsoka Season 2 will release but fans are under the assumption it will drop in Autumn much like Season 1 did.
