"The Mandalorian" is fantastic space western, and worth watching for what it is, if you can ignore the Star Wars connection.

It might tempt you to also watch "Boba Fett", which does not stand in it's own at all, but does weirdly contain a couple of good enough bonus episode of "The Mandalorian" for marketing reasons.

Thanks for the heads up. I'll be buying one at the first opportunity.

My other action figures are going to have to stand in the shadow of the glory of "it's just Jack Black, I guess".

(No sarcasm. I'm really going to buy this. I love the idea of Jack Black just playing "Jack Black".)

Maybe because there are no "CEO"'s of the fediverse and so it doesn't fit the narrative.

John Mastodon would like a word with them.
