Today's episode of The Book of Boba Fett, appropriately titled "The Return of The Mandalorian," (check out a recap here) took a break from the main storyline to focus on Din Djarin, but it also appeared to feature the live-action debut of a character Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order fans should be very familiar with.
When the bounty hunter returns to Tatooine to collect his new ship, we learn that Mos Eisley mechanic Peli Motto has a new droid working for her, and it looks a lot like BD-1!
This adorable droid was introduced in the Fallen Order video game, becoming a loyal companion to Cal Kestis and joining him on his adventures. The little fella who helps Djarin with his repairs in TBOBF is clearly the same model, but it may not actually be BD-1. The color design is different, for one, and since this show takes place quite a while after Fallen Order, it means BD would need to have been separated from Kestis and found his way to a completely new part of the galaxy.
We may get confirmation from Lucasfilm or director Bryce Dallas Howard at some point, but for now, you can check out an image of BD-1(?) below.
