Was anyone else expecting some big reveal with the Breen?

They were all clones of Carrie Fisher under those helmets.

 

Breen were too late in the game for a big reveal to really have impact.

 

I was hoping we would find out what a Breen looked liked too...

 

I always thought it would have been funny if they were revealed to look like mere humans, the helmets being just a way to scare others.

 

Did Weyoun even know what they looked like? That said there was a good video on YouTube about the Breen and speculating what they could've been like given it is specified they don't have blood.

 

Agreed, TPTB. Everyone knows that "they've Breen there, done that" with other enemy species and with all the shows in development or on air, they didn't want to overload things or keep them as a standby in the event the Dominion or 8472 or the giant mutant strawberry monsters didn't enthrall the viewers. Oh wait, that last one didn't make it to Trek either. Pity... CKandyman would make a fun crossover...

 

They were hinting toward a reveal, but never got around to it. The Breen were kind of disappointing, a stock villain who we couldn't see or understand. I wonder if they had something in mind, but the end of Season 7 was just too busy to put it on the screen, or if they really had nothing in mind that would have been interesting enough to be worth the screen time.

 

Yeah I really wished they had shown a Breen! Especially considering the easy opportunity even early on when Dukat and Kira save his daughter from the prison camp. Both are wearing Breen uniforms but they skipped over the part where they clocked them over the head and took of the mask this was a big let down

 

I was really disappointed by the Breen overall in the D.S.9.. They might as well been a species called the McGuffins.

Looking back now, it was nothing more than an attempt to throw kinks into the woodwork of the plot without having to do masterful writing to accomplish it, using a species we knew next to nothing about that looked "Cool".

 

Disappointed. I was expecting more in appearance than a Star Wars rip-off. My brothers would joke whether Carrie Fisher would appear to reveal she was part of the Breen race.

 

Personally I thought it was great that they remained enigmas throughout the series.

Though I also love the world-building the novels have done with them.

 

Yeah, I was kind of disappointed that there were never any universe-shaking revelations involving the Breen.
