The Mining Guild was first mentioned by Princess Leia to Lando Calrissian in Das Imperium schlägt zurück (1980).

The character design for Mining Guild Boss Yushin is based on a sketch by Ralph McQuarrie' of a bounty hunter created for Das Imperium schlägt zurück (1980).

Kanan's Stormtrooper helmet redecorated by Sabine has a stylized Loth-cat face on it.

WILHELM SCREAM: yelled by Rodian miner who is force pushed off the landing platform by Ezra.

The yellow Mining Guild Tie Fighters each have the front notch cut out of their stabilizer wings. This gives their pilot a better view but makes the fighter less suitable for combat.

The character of Ezra Bridger says "I've got a good feeling about this". This is a play on the frequently used sentence "I've got a bad feeling about this" which many Star Wars characters say in the various theatrical films and TV show productions.

I don't mind a good space whale story but I do mind the lack of realism. I suspend a fair amount of disbelief in star wars type shows but riding around in space without a pressure suit is a but much. They had open skin, neck and hands all unprotected as they road around the asteroid field surfing on ships and whales. They would have frozen and the lack of pressure would have killed them. Come on. You can do better than that. A simple pressure suit would have fixed this episode.

While I understand the others reviewers issues about being in space without a proper suit, this is one of the most thoughtful episodes so far in the series.

Ezra's understanding of the space orcas and how all creatures are connected, via the force, shows the growth of his character. While the ep is not critical to the story arc, it is an uplifting story showing the importance of the Jedi mindset.

I've been a late starter to Rebels, I've only just gotten in to it this last month (July 2017) by binge watching it, and until now I've really enjoyed it, but this episode really lets the side down. It's totally unrealistic and Bill Wolkoff (who wrote the episode) needs to hang up his sci fi writing boots and go and hang his head in shame somewhere.

Spoiler...

Space Whales who can jump in hyperspace, and Ezra can survive in space riding one of them without a space suit, really? Utterly shocking, avoid at all costs!!!

Plot; Desperate to acquire fuel for the rebel fleet, the crew of the Ghost attempt to infiltrate an Imperial mining operation while also trying to protect the lives of creatures who have a connection to the fuel they seek.

Two words; Space Whales. The uneven second season of Rebels continues with this weak shrug of an episode. I get that not every episode can focus on the big picture, larger story stuff, but these little sidetracks have become tiresome affairs with absolutely no consequence. It would be forgivable if they were more fun and slipped in a little character development for good measure, but these are flat, ham-fisted stories that just creep along with all of the excitement of waiting in line at the grocery store.

The IMDb summary is currently "the crew protects space creatures from the mining operation that threatens the creatures' lives." I love protection of nature and of endangered animals. The creatures here had features that I really like in Earth animals. Nevertheless, (1) this episode hammered the protection theme into dust, (2) they didn't even bother to file the serial numbers off Earth-animal features, and (3) the way the crew came around was cloying. This was an episode built not to entertain, not to interest, not to provoke thought, but to preach, and despite my agreeing with much of the message (or maybe because I agree with it), I found it annoying and low-quality.
