This lightsaber was stolen from your Jedi Temple by my ancestors during the fall of the Old Republic. Since then, many Jedi have died upon its blade. Prepare yourself to join them!" ―Pre Vizsla shows Obi-Wan Kenobi the Darksaber — Listen ( file info) [7] After escaping Concordia, Obi-Wan and Kryze returned to Mandalore where they boarded Kryze's personal starship, called the Coronet and headed for Coruscant so Kryze could plead her case to the Galactic Senate directly. Vizsla's weapons and armour were standard Death Watch issue, apart from a Darksaber stolen from the Jedi during the fall of the Old Republic. Vizsla was, for one without proper training, extremely skilled in combat with this lightsaber variant. He was able to hold off and even gain the advantage for a short time in a duel with Jedi padawan Ahsoka Tano. Despite his prowess with the blade, however, he could not match Jedi like Obi-Wan Kenobi in combat.

To cover his involvement with the Death Watch, [11] Vizsla, already a gifted statesman, publicly proclaimed loyalty to Kryze and was appointed the Governorship of Concordia, [19] which was legally considered a semi-autonomous province. [7] As the Governor of Concordia, Vizsla became a trusted ally of Duchess Satine. [21] Despite his deep hatred of the woman, Vizsla was able to be outwardly loyal and maintained appearances whenever with her as part of his official duties. [7] In his secret life, however, he slowly made moves to undermine her rule. Though Kryze's reforms had been popular and generally supported, some Mandalorians continued to hold onto their traditions in thought if not in deed, and the Death Watch sought to gather support from these individuals across the Mandalore sector. Using fear propaganda to recruit more to their cause [11] and vandalizing public spaces in the New Mandalorian capital Sundari, Vizsla was able to make Death Watch's presence known, [7] but these tactics had limited success in swaying public opinion against the duchess. [11] Pre Vizsla's Mandalorian Fighter became available during 2012 and 75316 Mandalorian Starfighter shares numerous similarities with its predecessor, especially concerning their sizes. However, this design actually represents a different variant of the Kom'rk-class Starfighter, with an alternative fuselage and laser cannon arrangement. Additionally, the distinct blue, dark blue and light bluish grey colour scheme looks fantastic.Beaten down by Maul and Opress, Embo and Sugi fled with Dengar and Razzi. When Vizsla moved to go after them, Maul stopped him and reasoned that, as bounty hunters, they had no allegiance to the Hutts. Returning to the council chamber, Vizsla was told by one of his soldiers that all but one of the Hutt leaders had escaped, Oruba. When threatened by Maul and Savage, Oruba frightenedly informed them that the Hutt leadership was also on Tatooine, which Vizsla recognized as the location of Jabba Desilijic Tiure's palace and center of influence. After Opress killed Oruba, the Shadow Collective left Nal Hutta for Tatooine, where Vizsla's warriors led an assault on Jabba's palace. Vizsla helped Maul and Savage force their way into the palace, where they were met by Jabba and Gorga Desilijic Aarrpo. Vizsla told Jabba and Gorga to give up and join the Collective, and after another threat from Maul, the two relented and decided to join the Hutt families with the new criminal enterprise. [6] Bo-Katan Kryze raises the Darksaber to unite the Mandalorians against the Galactic Empire, becoming the first Mand'alor since Pre Vizsla's death. Kryze joined Vizsla in the dining room and explained Kenobi's absence by lying that he had gone to meditate. As Satine explained the situation she was in, Vizsla prepared drinks for themselves. She told him that she suspected someone was feeding misinformation directly to the Republic Senate, and asked who would gain anything from such lies. Vizsla replied that it had to be the Death Watch, but Kryze refuted him and stated that the Death Watch was incapable of engineering such political intrigue without help from an external force. Recognizing that her suspicions were correct, Vizsla commented that it was hard to believe, given that it could only have been someone among the highest influence in the Separatists. Satine asked why they would target her, and Vizsla explained that she threatened the Separatists' goals as the leader of the Council of Neutral Systems. He joked that she should take the campaigns against her as a compliment since it meant someone powerful was seeking her downfall. [7]

However, the absence of landing gear to support the nose is absolutely inexplicable. The craft looks dreadful without any support, leaving the fuselage to tilt downwards. Retractable landing gear could easily have been included and was present on the rendition from 2012 so I am very disappointed by its omission. Instead, the vessel rests on 1x3 double-inverted slopes which are completely inadequate. Following her introduction during Star Wars: The Clone Wars, Bo-Katan Kryze has appeared prominently during Star Wars Rebels and The Mandalorian too. This character's bright armour has remained reasonably consistent between distinct television series and her helmet displays particularly intricate detail, corresponding precisely with the source material.Boil \ CC-5052 "Bly" \ Clone Flametrooper \ Commander Fil \ Commander Stone \ CT-411 "Ponds" \ Galactic Marine \ CT-782 "Hevy" \ CT-5555 "Fives" \ Disguised Clone \ Lieutenant Thire \ Stealth Trooper \ Waxer Vizsla had the brothers transported to the Death Watch's encampment on Zanbar, where Maul was outfitted with new cybernetic legs to replace the crude, makeshift prosthesis crafted for him by the Nightsister matriarch Mother Talzin, and Savage provided with an artificial substitute for the arm severed by Obi-Wan Kenobi's blade. Maul and Vizsla found a common enemy in Obi-Wan Kenobi and formed an unstable alliance. On Zanbar, Vizsla and Maul made plans to travel to Nal Hutta to force the powerful Hutt Clans to join the Shadow Collective. As the two and Bo-Katan spoke over a map of the galaxy, three ships belonging to the Pyke Syndicate landed near the camp. Though Bo-Katan was displeased with another criminal element involved, Vizsla and Maul anticipated the Pykes and accepted an offer from their leader, Lom Pyke, who had heard through his connections of their plan, to join the Shadow Collective's army. After shaking hands with Lom, Vizsla told him to ready his troops so they could leave for Nal Hutta immediately. Vizsla, Maul, Opress, and Bo-Katan led three Kom'rk transports and two of the Pyke ships to Gardulla Besadii the Elder's palace on Nal Hutta, where they were allowed to speak before the Grand Hutt Council. When the Hutts asked Maul what they would get in exchange for joining the Shadow Collective and giving him access to Hutt Space, Maul threatened that he would only grant them their lives if they accepted his offer. [6] Pre Vizsla was the leader of the Mandalorian Death Watch faction during the Clone Wars. He hatched several plots with Count Dooku to take over the planet Mandalore, as he believed that its current leaders, lead by Duchess Satine Kryze, were weak and had followed the wrong course of action. He was a strong believer in the warlike culture that Mandalore had always been and wished to reinstate those nearly forgotten ways. When his plans failed, Vizsla turned on Dooku, who gave him a lightsaber scar across his face. The Death Watch leader, with but a fraction of his previous fighting force, went into seclusion, vowing revenge on the Count and on the new Mandalorian government that he had failed to conquer. He later received the coordinates of Dooku's location from Separatist deserter Lux Bonteri so he could kill Dooku. After Lux escaped Death Watch, disillusioned with their beliefs, it is unknown what happened to the coordinates of Dooku's location. The fuselage should house Mandalorians for deployment and that could perhaps have been achieved if the model was larger, as mentioned in the review.

For generations, my ancestors fought proudly as warriors against the Jedi. Now, that woman tarnishes the very name Mandalorian. Defend her, if you will." ―Pre Vizsla, on Satine Kryze, to Obi-Wan Kenobi — Listen ( file info) [7] Pre Vizsla's Darksaber also appears in set 75022 Mandalorian Speeder as Darth Maul killed him and took his Darksaber; it would later pass into the possession of Sabine Wren in Star Wars Rebels.Listen, Duchess. Do you hear the people? They cry out for change. Your weak-minded rule of Mandalore is at an end. The resurrection of our warrior past is about to begin!" ―Pre Vizsla, to Satine Kryze [8] If the Republic intervenes now, Death Watch will not be able to take over the planet. Consider: once the Senate sends peacekeeping troops to Mandalore, the people will be surrounded by a military presence. Most distasteful. They will rebel." Vizsla is voiced in The Clone Wars by American director Jon Favreau, who was cast when Filoni learned that he was a fan of Star Wars. The two met at Skywalker Ranch while Favreau was working on the 2008 film Iron Man. While showing Filoni some of his work on Iron Man, Favreau mentioned off-hand that he was interested in voicing a character in The Clone Wars, and it happened that the role of Vizsla had not been cast yet. The part marked Favreau's first contribution to the Star Wars franchise, [66] and he would later create the live-action television series The Mandalorian. [69] Favreau reprised the role of Vizsla in later seasons of The Clone Wars, voicing the character in three more episodes. [30] [6] [8] According to an interview with Filoni that was featured in Star Wars Insider 115, the name "Pre" is a title of stature, like "pre-eminent," while the "Vizsla" name came from Tor Vizsla, the original leader of Death Watch who was featured in the 2002 Jango Fett: Open Seasons comic book series. [66] Vizsla was given an entry in the The Clone Wars Character Encyclopedia book, released in June 2010. [70] He was also featured in Hasbro's 2010 toy figure line. [71] Our people were warriors. Strong. Feared! Now they're ruled by the New Mandalorians who think that being a pacifist is a good thing. They've given away our honor and tradition for peace. Duchess Satine and her corrupt leadership are crushing our souls, destroying our identity.

You are describing the Fang-class Starfighter, introduced during Star Wars Rebels, which is a significantly smaller and completely different vessel. That and the Kom'rk do share aesthetic similarities but this model is definitely intended to represent the Kom'rk." Star Wars: The Rebellion Will Be Televised by Breznican, Anthony on Vanity Fair ( May 17, 2022) (archived from the original on May 17, 2022) Pre Vizsla was originally the governor of the moon of planet Mandalore, Concordia, during the Clone Wars. However, he was also a descendant of the Mandalorian criminals who waged war on the Jedi years before the war and founded the terrorist organization called Death Watch and opposed Mandalore's new pacifist government, run by the New Mandalorians led by Duchess Satine Kryze. Pre Vizsla and his new allies set about building a criminal enterprise to fund and supply the ousting of the New Mandalorians.

Declaring himself Prime Minister, Vizsla looks upon the Mandalorians cheering their support for him. After imprisoning Maul and Oppress, he proceeded to claim the title of Prime Minister of Mandalore for himself. But to Vizsla's surprise, Maul and Opress, in addition to Almec, were able to escape from the prison. Once they entered the throne room, Maul challenged Vizsla to a duel in single combat, which he accepted when his subordinates look to him. He told Bo-Katan to give Maul his lightsaber.
