Nope we just ended up with a Cabal of Great Value Tarkins instead.

Isn't a 'Great Value Tarkin' just a Trade Federation honcho with delusions of grandeur?
Yes yes indeed.
Kinda figured that was the case.
Anyway, am I the only one worried Wrecker's chip might activate or something after he hit his head in the crash in the last episode?
Because I'm getting Tup's-premature-Order 66 vibes from his complaints about his head, even though I doubt he's had anything screw with his chip like Tup's had happen.
I think Tech and Echo might find a solution to all of their chip problems and Wrecker will end up being the unintended field test for it. My hope is that eventually they make their way to the unknown regions or some place on a remote world to live out their days in peace.
Yeah, that's kinda my guess as well; they'll use the scanner Tech is assembling to deal with Wrecker's chip, if they have to.
As for heading off to hide in the Unknown Regions...maybe, but kinda doubt it.
The way things are looking, I expect they will likely be taken in by the Rebellion at some point, or they will die keeping Omega out of the Empire's hands, or both.
I am calling it now a grown up Omega is gonna show up either in the Mandelorian or the Ahsoka series.
Now that would be interesting.
I'd guess she's more likely to show up in the Ashoka series than the Mando, as she has no real connection (well, no more than any clone does) to Mandalore.
However we do know the Bad Batch will run into Rex at some point, so she will at least be in the periphery of Ashoka's world/connections.

I really think that Omega is either an anakin clone or a palpatine clone. At the very least she's not a Jango Fett clone.

Surprisingly the EU's original clone saga was even weirder.

The clone that Joruus C'baoth created to test me with was the fulfillment of my vision in the cave on Dagobah. The reality was no less horrifying than the illusion. Imagine looking at your reflection in the mirror and seeing only…an enemy.Luke Skywalker, in his personal datapad journal Luuke...

so I just realized somthing. I don't think Omega has the age modifing genes that the other clones have. Does this mean we are liklety to see her pop up in Civil war and and post endor era material?
Yes that is a definite possibility. Also Clones in Canon did live around 40 years. So a few made it past Endor.
Welp, we've met our mission broker. A-Team shenanigans may now commence!
Yep. And I think the inhibitor chips are affecting the Bad Batch in different ways from the Regular Clones and Crosshair. Wreckers Headaches. Hunter losing a step in agility. I think when they meet up with Rex they will find a way to remove the chips.

...not really? I mean, Luuke wasn't really so much a character as a pawn of Joruus C'baoth, who shows up for all of one fight in less than a chapter of the story. Furthermore, Zahn had originally intended that Luuke's role would be played by a clone of Vader, but this was vetoed by Lucasarts.Surprisingly the EU's original clone saga was even weirder.

I've watched a few episodes. Honestly I'm not particularly a fan of kid characters tagging along with a squad of soldiers. It always feels contrived as it's going to to be a given that they're going to repeatedly end up being the one who saves the day like when the squad gets stomped by a bunch of slavers because one of them happened to have a gliding monster. They're hyped up as one-squad army and they captured so easy? It's kind of jarring. The characters are interesting in their own ways though I haven't really watched enough to ssee anything but the basic aspects of their characters and the stereotypical garnishes to their characters like the nerdy clone having goggles etc. I hope Wrecker doesn't start to get Worf'd every other episode.
They are revealing that the Inhibiter Chips are affecting them in different ways. Wreckers Chip has literally sapped his strength. And Hunter is losing a step in agility. The Clues are all over the episodes.

The show could do without the kid tagalong but I guess this is how we make "family entertainment" Wrecker, man with massive head scarring, is constantly complaining about headaches. Who could possibly be concerned about that? Especially when you become aware of the chips and one of your own has been taken control of through the chip. It's either gross indifference to Wrecker or just plot stupidity.
I think they'll have the Chips removed when they meet up with Rex or Rex/Ahsoka.
