HEY HEY!BABU
Looks awesome and I'm super excited. Can't wait.
Hopefully the Lightsaber/Jedi stuff is just condensed in a flashback puzzle piece though.
Edit, direct links to a specific time in a YT video don't seem to work on here.

Can Mandalorians simply choose any helmet colors and helmet/visor shapes or does it signify some tribe/function?

Is this the X-Wing patrol fighter pilot from past episodes speaking to the Mandalorian?
58sec > 1min 05sec

That's the pilot who keeps being a jerk to Din. Really painting the New Republic in a beautiful light...
With overzealous and pushy employees like that no wonder the New Republic faltered and eventually fell into disarray.
I mean, Din is technically a criminal.That's the pilot who keeps being a jerk to Din. Really painting the New Republic in a beautiful light...
And I wouldn't really call him a jerk.
Sorry, that was more Trapper Wolf being a jerk.
The rest is just ineffectiveness on the New Republic part. It doesn't feel like there is any incentive for Din to cooperate with the New Republic. It's being demonstrated as understaffed, yet with pushy enforcers at times. It's frustrating.
Carson Teva wants to do good. You can tell with his conversation with Cara in Season 2 and the little bit we got with him in the Season 3 trailer here.
It's just the New Republic is stretched too thin. I think he's on the same side as Leia in wanting to rearm and hunt down the remaining Imperials.
That's the reason why during the sequels Leia is off with her own rebellion again.

Yeah that's established canon. Mon Mothma scaled down the New Republic Military after the Battle of Jakku during the De-imperialization efforts.

Agreed. His conversation with Cara was a nice step towards more positive portrayal. And then we got the Book of Boba Fett scene...
Which is something that I agree with in terms of moving us towards the ST. But, again it's frustrating because I want to cheer on the New Republic and not be like "Oh, Din, you're so right to be a criminal." Ugh. It's Captain Jack Sparrow all over again and I'm supposed to be happy he is a pirate. Spoiler alert: I'm not.
SPOILER: All of the Rebels were criminals. The Empire was the legal authority.
I believe originally the ideal for the colors and shapes was to help denote clans and houses among the Mandalorians. Though there is also an amount of customization for those that either earn it or are artistically inclined (Sabine). Post Purge? Unclear. They might all start out like Din's unpainted armor and add colors to them...he just seems...unimaginative in an artistic sense. Sabine would have spruced that and the Naboo Starfighter up. (Also his naming convention...if he ever got a pet dog he'd call it Dog.)
As for the X-wing pilot (Carson), the scene shift to Din is not the same place, so I doubt he is talking to Din. Most likely he's talking to a higher up in the New Republic. Maybe Hera (she was in charge of Starfighters near the end of the war), and she should be appearing in Ahsoka. Carson's trying to figure out what is going on with the Imperial activity out on the Rim, but I think because people out there still associate authority with how the Empire did things, they don't want to talk to the New Republic, thus the Republic doesn't get the information it should be getting about what Moff Gideon is up to, nor that Grand Admiral Thrawn might be active behind some of the Imperials. I wonder if Luke and Ahsoka even reported to the New Republic about stuff they found. Dark Troopers is a thing. The cloning attempts is something else, meaning they might miss the signs about Snoke and Palpatine because the Galaxy is tired of talking to the Galactic Authority.
Mon Mothma.
Yep. The Rebel Alliance are basically a World War II armed resistance group but with spaceships and advanced technology. The Rebels were always the criminals and lawbreakers under Palpatine's New Order and were always the bad guys in Imperial propaganda. Cassian Andor is basically on the Empire's version of the FBI Most Wanted List for a whole lot of killings and conspiracy to break Imperial law. The Empire calls it murder but the fledgling Rebellion calls them legitimate military targets.
If Thrawn shows up, he could be a sort of distraction propped up by Palpatine. I mean give the Republic a real threat, but one based on the remains of the Empire. With them focused on Thrawn, they could miss the cloning operations, the shifting of people and materials into the Unknown Regions, the reconstruction of Illum into Starkiller Base, and the industrial base for the First Order (and certainly the Sith Eternal...since even the First Order kind of missed that).
I feel like you're putting more thought into it than Lucasfilm is.
Carson Teva looks like he might be wearing the same kind of jacket Poe wore in.. I don't know what movie that publicity photo is from.

Everything in the Mando verse has probably been thought out. Filoni is known for thinking ahead, planning in advance.
