RELATED: Star Wars: Andor - Questions The Show Should Answer

It could be said that for three episodes, Andor is an enthralling but slow burn. Not only that, but it remains distinct from flashy lightsabers, the Force, and blaster fights. Even easter eggs are hard to come by and remain for the most die-hard of Star Wars fans.

8 Bryar Pistol

It seems as if the Star Wars universe will never run out of ideas for weapons, as Andor brandishes yet another unique-looking blaster. However, this blaster doesn’t seem to be unique to Star Wars, just the live-action series, as Andor’s blaster in episode 3 seems to be a Bryar pistol.

The bulky appearance of a Bryar pistol was first seen in the 1995 game, Star Wars: Dark Forces, and was the blaster of choice for the fan-favorite Star Wars Legends Jedi, Kyle Katarn. When introduced to canon in Star WarsBattlefront (2016), it was named the “K-16 Bryar pistol”.

7 Gonk Droid

In one of the many “blink and miss it” easter eggs of Star Wars content, fans can spot a classic droid “gonking” about the place. The gonk droids are a staple of Star Wars, for their slow movements, and obnoxious sound effects, which just repeat a monotone “gonk”.

Audiences barely get a full shot of the gonk droid, but the noise and face are unmistakable. Fans will surely recognize one of the oldest and most famous droid types that exist in the Star Wars galaxy.

6 Wobani Run

When the character of Timm asks Cassian and Bix, “Are we bidding on the Wobani run tomorrow?”, fans of Rogue One might perk their ears at the mention of “Wobani”. This is the canon planet in Star Wars that was used by the Empire as a detention center and labor camp.

It’s also the planet where an adult Jyn Erso is introduced to both the audience and Cassian. It’s a fun reference to the film that started this adventure 6 years in the making, and hopefully not the last audiences hear from Rogue One.

5 Y-Wing Bomber

Cassian visits a shipyard filled with a variety of spacecraft. There’s a lot of metallic junk around, and scrap to try and avoid gazing at. However, keen-eyed fans will easily be able to spot the yellow cockpit of a Y-Wing bomber.

This ship may have been used since the Clone Wars, but it’s interesting to see one wrecked and scrapped here in Andor. It just goes to show that nobody knows what treasures lurk in a scrapyard, especially when Star Wars easter egg fanatics are about.

4 Bestoon Legacy

Perhaps one of the more eyebrow-raising easter eggs of Andor does not involve a named Jedi or a character, but that of a ship in the distance. Audiences can spot a spacecraft that is of similar, if not identical design to the Bestoon Legacy, a famous ship in the Star Wars sequel trilogy.

The Bestoon Legacy belonged to the Sith assassin, Ochi of Bestoon, but was also used to drop off a child Rey, as seen in the flashback in The Force Awakens. Perhaps this is another connective thread to the often divisive sequel trilogy.

3 Toy Bantha

In the residence of Maarva Andor, fans will be able to spot a toy next to a blaster rifle. This toy is peculiar, as it seems to have been made from sticks and fur, and has the identical shape and horns of a Bantha. Bantha’s are large, hairy mammals with spiraling horns, a distinct design that is definitely on this toy.

It’s a fun die-hard easter egg for Star Wars fans and one that not many would have noticed, due to the intensity increase in the scene. Banthas were used primarily as herd animals by Tusken raiders, so Maarva must have had quite the adventures if she has a toy of one.

2 The Clone Wars

As fans learned from Rogue One, Cassian Andor fought on the side of the Separatists from the Clone Wars. Star Wars fans hope that Andor answers many questions they have about the character and his past, and it will surely do just that. The three episodes so far have softly dipped into the childhood of Cassian, and will hopefully further explain how he came to fight for the Separatists.

When an unknown ship landed on the technology-lacking planet of Kenari, Cassian boarded it to find the crew dead. He was soon taken away by Maarva, and perhaps Cassian’s childhood will take us through his experiences during the Clone Wars.

1 BBY 5

At the beginning of Andor, some fans may raise their eyebrow in confusion at what exactly “BBY” means. This is a term that doesn’t appear in live-action much but has an integral meaning to Star Wars fans. BBY is the acronym for “Before the Battle of Yavin”, a significant Star Wars event in which Luke Skywalker blew up the first Death Star.

This point of reference allows fans to chronologize the timeline of Star Wars, as it ever expands its canon in movies, TV, comics, books, and games. The canon use of BBY is to the joy of many die-hard Star Wars fans, who can now understand when exactly Andor takes place.

Star Wars: Andor is out now on Disney Plus, with new episodes each Wednesday.
