R2's like "Screw you! I was in space, repairing the Queen's ship under enemy fire while you were a little boy's hobby on Tattooine!"
4:07
B-Wing just casualy flying backwards.
80s animation errors just never cease to amaze.
If the studio is tight pressed to make so many episodes in such and such time dead line, mistakes happen.
Adventures of the Galaxy Rangers, the studio, TMS, who made Akira, had to make SIXTY FIVE episodes in under 11 months, and even with three animation teams, round the clock, some mistakes did happen.
That has got to be the best pilot I've ever seen.
@@AAhmou "That's one hell of a pilot!"
Thanks for putting these up man, I wasn't able to watch these when they first aired but I grew up on 80's cartoon reruns and it's funny seeing Star Wars in such a manner.
…no way, same here. I trying so so hard to spark my memory to this series… I’m starting to believe my ABC affiliate station did not air it…. Was that the same with you….???
@@damienmercer4731 All I know is hey certainly didn't air them here in Australia
@@Freshie207 🤣🤣
God bless you for restoring this.
Enjoy it while you can Disney is on to this.
It's still up, so...
Some great art design in this episode. Nice music too.
I remember watching this tv series in the year 1988 here in my country Costa Rica
I love Star Wars
👍👍👍
"Don't worry, Threepio. We can pick up a new unit on Annoo."
*Sometime later on Annoo*
"A new hyperdrive, eh? Might as well buy a new ship. Cheaper that way, heheh."
Bad boy no catnip for you
@@yourmom-qf4oe Your channel is younger than my comment.

I wonder if George Lucas allways knew that these 2 was going to be in all of the films?
"It has the destructive power of anything a thousand times its size!"
Grand Moff Tarkin and Director Krennic would probably have a different opinion.
As it happens, the Death Star was _exactly_ one thousand and one times larger.
@Aaron pfund What do you mean?
@@shryoder Krennic didn't exist until Rogue One. Rogue One didn't exist until after Disney shut down the Expanded Universe and declared it non-canon, including this show.
@@Bauglir100 Ah, I see... But, technically, anything after (before) this didn't exist, because George Lucas didn't have the prequel trilogy in his mind at all. What I'm trying to say is that technically nothing happened, except the basic stuff we knew at that point, like Darth being a Jedi before Luke and Leia being related, you know... If you get what I'm saying.
@@shryoder Oh, don't give me that "They didn't think of that stuff at the time" Doylist crap. It's not like that at all. Disney flat-out erased everything that wasn't Episodes I-VI and the 2008 Star Wars: The Clone Wars movie and TV series from existence so that the Sequel Trilogy, Rogue One, etc. could be made. The original Expanded Universe had its own version of how the Death Star plans were stolen, which Rogue One completely contradicts.
I live in india and the Star Wars Vintage Collection has not been released yet here and I was really excited and looking forward for it to come and I was really disappointed when it didn’t come
The amount of droids the gang has probably inspired the separatist Droid army
The Clone Wars were over by this point, if I recall correctly, but the CIS' advantages and disadvantages in relying on a mostly-mechanized armed force probably served as an inspiration to Tig Fromm. Just imagine if he'd been able to rig up some working droidekas....
Like how 3PO says that he's secure and he would have to rescue R2 if he floats away, only for him and the hyperdrive to float away.
I know this was before the prequels, but 3PO did not know that R2 saved a Naboo ship by himself when his other droid buddies were being shot to hell.
The Fromm Gang is a powerful ally of the empire and controls the criminal underworld in the Annoo system
I swear these crew mates are the only ones to have any respect or trust in 3PO. It's refreshing...despite this show being 40 years old.
I love this show
I don't know why but the art work reminds me of early issues of the magazine heavy metal
Strange that R2 can scream, yet he cannot talk.
4:13 Muun in the background.
first few seconds and its already connotations
it was actually released on dvd in 2004 under the name Star Wars Animated Adventures: Droids
That DVD is also out of print, and contains only some episodes edited together.
He tried to blast a _sleeping_ Thall with knockout gas.
That theme is so epic. Nostalgia overload 😰
9.02 C3p0 "Im practising my Ranuk Nes? the ancient art of hand to hand combat" Anyone ever heard of that before?
According to Wookieepedia, this is it's only apprentice. I'm not so certain that C-3PO is really built for unarmed combat, but I suppose it makes some sense that he would have knowledge of it.
@@onenerd9573 Thanks for the info man, appreciate it.
But can Ranuk Nes beat Teras Kasi?
13:29 Gotta love R2 being a little shit talker even here.
This is a lot better than The Force Awakens and the two other sequels I can't remember the name put together.
For sure. Disney definitely ruined star wars
@Jay It's unexcusable that they couldn't think of any other story idea besides "Okay, the Empire rebranded". Even if Lucas's ideas were crap (the characters shrinking down to microscopic size to investigate midichlorians 😂) they should have been able to come up with something.
I cant thank you enough for putting this up!
9:06 R2-D2: WAAAAAAOOOOOO!
That stupid overused sound. Why director types think that it endears him to the audience I'll never understand.
C-3PO: HIYAAAA! FREEDOM IS EVERYBODY'S FIGHT-- (servo disks lock up) Oh!
@@ilikethecokev2 Threepio: Oh my! I'm-I'm giving myself head!
13:01. Love those green droids.
Uh oh dude the first episode vanished.
4:42 was that hot oil laser?
This work is Fantastic. My Compliments. However, does anybody can write subtitles for all people who cannot understand correctly what they say?
They’re coming to Disney+ with subtitles.
Anyone else realize this is the same animation style like in the holiday special cartoon scene
Yes, it was the same studio (Nevlana). They brought them back for the series.
We don't speak of that abomination
What? The Holiday Special or Nelvana Studios?
The Boba Fett thing? That animation was "by Nelvana" of Canada according to the credits, which implies in-house work, and it looks closer to their film "Rock & Rule" than anything in this series, which was "produced" by Nelvana, but animated in South Korea by Hanho Heung-Up. It's one of their better works, at times similar to their work on the "Starchaser: the Legend of Orin" film.
All right that's a wrap 😄
if the satellite is a manned craft, then why wasn't there a crew aboard? if it wasn't deemed ready for activity, why weren't there technicians and security aboard ?
and seriously if it's too dangerous for either side to have then don't let them take it. get kia's mom's contacts in the rebel army to manage it.
8:46
Wait a Minute, the Rebel Alliance wasn't founded yet.
+Redeye Nope
I thought it could be just a rebel cell, but what I don´t get is what business a rebel cell has with that gang, are they related to the empire? English is not my first language, so maybe I missed something
I think Droids happens about 10 years before a new hope.
@@TheCastellan15, it's 4 years after Episode 3
I would have led an imperial navy black ops unit to occupy the rebel base after unleashing several tracker droids to knock out the anarchists with stun guns then deposit them in prison transports for a free ride to the Police station. We would then gather valuable data on the identities and location of numerous terror cells and transmit the priceless documents to Lord Vader and the local garrisons
It’s so Mœbiusy
That 80ties music though
+LokiFX The first song is still better than the second one.
+nevertrusasmurf Actually, the rock score is pretty good, even if it is a bit unusual for "Star Wars". Being by Stewart Copeland certainly helps.
+Scifimaster92 Correction - Copeland only did the theme song. The rock score is still pretty good, though.
It’s a good think they’re not stuck in deep space!
Aren't they suposed to be with Bail Organa though? What happened?
+ChampionRevilo They were separated from him during a pirate raid and wandered through several masters before returning to the _Tantive IV_ shortly before _Episode IV_ begins.
Immortal Cosmoterran this cartoon is non canon.
@@leo11lim In the reboot continuity, yeah. In the original continuity, though, Immortal Cosmoterran is right.
@@leo11lim no it was always canon lol. At least before 2014
Since when a "Thermal detonator" was in a shape of a yellow small cilinder? ;/
According to Star Wars Lore, it's a small metal ball with red button like in Ep Vl.
Sunrise Alex there was also the imperial thermal detonator that stormtroopers used that was a white cylinder so it could have been a miss colored version of that
I think it's also a 1x1 brick with four Cones and two fish pieces with a stud on either side 😂
did you do episode 1, its missing from the upload.
used to love watching this, big starwars fan and it was always nice to have something else to the starwars universe, great work. thanks for uploading.
The description of this video states that in the event of an official rerelease, the episode will be taken down. As the episode in question was S1E1, maybe that's what happened? Posting this more for future readers.
Is tigg a orc and does Darth Vader make an appearance?
No
Freedom fighting.
Where is Episode 1?
What channel was this on? Was it one of the main three networks like ABC, NBC, or CBS?
PlayBoy channel. (joke)
It was on ABC
ABC. Kind of interesting to think that was long before Disney bought it... And longer before they bought Star Wars.
@@crystanubis I never watched this cartoon. I know half the programs I watched in the 80's were on NBC.
@@yippeeyokai5750 …dude, sounds like me and are going through the same thing… I just can not remember this SMC!!!! Its like it did not air in my ABC affiliate station…
This animation type reminds me of 80s he-man and she-ra
Jee, it's almost like this came out in the 80's.
There's something on the ship at 0:36. It's looks like it says gay. But there's also an = B. Maybe G O · Y = B?
Mandela Effect
Which ones darth vader in
None, but he is in the Holiday Special.
And if he would be in it he's be younger since this takes place right after episode 3 he would have pretty much just been put in the suit
@@JonSnow-hm4ch well it doesn't take place after right after ep 3. About 3 years before ep 4
I love the show but I can't get into this overrated, half assed theme song. Sting can really do better.
