[[Spoilers ahead] The Mandalorian Discussion]

I am loving this show with every episode that comes out. First episode was great and loved IG-11. I feel like he???ll definitely return or we might see another IG unit close in number to 11. As for episode 2 I gotta say Jawas have made a full comeback since there demise in A New Hope where they were all dead and burned lol. Now they take down Mandalorians! Who would have thought?! Lol the egg looked delicious as well lol and Baby not Yoda is so cool and a unique mix to the show. Can???t wait for episode 3 and on.??

What sort of paint was it? automotive? Looks cool flat black.

VOCs baby, that's where it's all at.??

It was just a paint primer i believe, definitely not a automotive. It has to be gloss black everywhere but the chin and teeth and i like things shiny so you will only see the matte in time.??

lol dont know what a VOC is but yes Jimbo, yes!??
