I skipped last week’s episode “Flash Strike”, because it was just part one of the big finale of The Bad Batch and I wanted to talk about it all at the same time, so reviewing last week’s episode seemed a bit redundant. So today I will talk about the 70 minute finale which is mostly the 48 minute final episode The Cavalry Has Arrived (with last week’s 22 minute episode added you get the 70 minute finale)… and I will also look back and give my final verdict on The Bad Batch.
Also… in case you really need to know now before you click through… does the series have an actual conclusion? Is the finale a satisfying ending? I would say mostly “yes”, but you can tell the showrunners were probably caught on the wrong foot when they were told that season 3 is the final one. But they tried their best and I would say as far as endings for cancelled series go The Bad Batch absolutely has one of the better ones. But the tacked on epilogue reeks of last minute addition. So there is a lot to talk about, one last time, read my spoiler review for The Bad Batch series finale by clicking here or on the banner!

Hasbro thinks so little of their longtime collector base that they believe you are too dumb to notice that you can get 100% all-new tooling and seven accessories for $16.99 or an 80% reused-parts figure also with seven accessories but for $24.99 and label it a “Deluxe” figure. That said. The Vintage Collection Professor Huyang is a fantastic figure; you likely will want doubles of it. (more….)
