Obi-Wan Kenobi took us back to the night of Order 66 on a number of occasions. As you'll recall, with Chancellor Palpatine's true nature finally revealed, the villain turned Anakin Skywalker to the Dark Side and named him "Darth Vader." With that, Vader led a battalion of the brainwashed Clone Troopers into the Jedi Temple where they proceeded to slaughter the Jedi inside. 

Not even the Younglings escaped, and this Disney+ series revealed that Reva was among the children he targeted that fateful night. This wasn't confirmed until the penultimate chapter, but saw that Anakin killed the children with no remorse, leaving the future Sith Inquisitor for dead. 

During both that flashback and the opening few minutes of the premiere, the Clone Troopers could be seen in action taking aim at their former allies, and we now have a closer look at their armour courtesy of actor Ardeshir Radpour. 

In the behind the scenes photos below, we see him posing with Hayden Christensen, various Jedi extras, and his fellow Clone Troopers. There's also a very cool shot of the Purge Troopers who, sadly, only played a very minor role in Obi-Wan Kenobi by the time all was said and done. 

We're hoping that a "Disney Gallery" making-of special for the show will eventually be released on Disney+, as that will no doubt provide more awesome content like this. For now, though, these images give fans a fun glimpse at the making of the critically acclaimed series. 

Take a closer look at these new Obi-Wan Kenobi photos (via SFFGazette.com) below:

This has to be the most expensive fan fiction/fan film/series that I’ve ever seen.

Figures they would use Legion members as stunt doubles. I know they did so in the Mandalorian as well.

So cool to finally see actual Clone Troopers show up in live-action. Makes me realize how odd the CGI troopers were in the prequels.

@bkmeijer1 - That clone armor is not fun to wear either, I used to be a Stormtrooper in the 501st and it is a labor of love. Clone armor is basically a clamshell that is as tight as it can be. Not to mention it pinches at the elbows and back of the knees.

@CyberBishop - I was gonna comment it looked kinda uncomfortable, so I guess wasn't far off.

But still, being in the 501st sounds pretty cool. Got quite the admiration for them.
