Only the films and spin-off works produced after April 25, 2014, are part of the restructured canon, including television series such as The Clone Wars, Rebels, and The Mandalorian, the latter of which heavily focuses on the Mandalorian creed. Following the acquisition of Lucasfilm by Disney in 2014, most existing spin-off material was declared to be non canon. More spin-off material explored Mandalorian lore, including the violent Death Watch sect. Star Wars: Episode II вЂ“ Attack of the Clones (2002) introduces the bounty hunter Jango Fett, who also wore Mandalorian armor, and was the adoptive father of Boba, a clone of Jango. The backstory of the Mandalorians was first extensively explored in issues of Marvel Comics' original Star Wars series and various other Star Wars Legends media, including comics by Dark Horse and video games by LucasArts. In a 1979 issue of Bantha Tracks, the newsletter of the Official Star Wars Fan Club, Boba's armor was described as that of the 'Imperial Shocktroopers, warriors from the olden time' who 'came from the far side of the galaxy' and are few in number because they 'were wiped out by the Jedi Knights during the Clone Wars'. The group eventually developed into a single bounty hunter character, Boba Fett, and the costume was reworked, but it retained elements such as wrist lasers, rocket darts, jetpacks, and a rocket. Initially, the soldiers were called Super Troopers and were intended to look alike. In production for The Empire Strikes Back (1980), Ralph McQuarrie and Joe Johnston designed armor intended to be worn by soldiers described as super-commandos from the Mandalore system, armed with weapons built into white suits and known for battling the Jedi. The Star Wars Expanded Universe and the television series The Clone Wars, Rebels, and The Mandalorian expanded upon Mandalorian lore with the introduction of additional characters, and established the Mandalorians not as an 'alien race or species', but a distinct ideology of humans and various aliens from Mandalore and nearby worlds united by a common creed with a stoic, spartan warrior tradition. Although Fett was not explicitly identified as a Mandalorian in the film, his popularity inspired an extensive inquisition into Mandalorians in future Star Wars media, including novels, comics, television series, and video games. Their most distinct cultural feature is their battle helmet, chest armor, wrist gauntlets, and often jet packs, similar to those used by Boba Fett and his father/clone host, Jango Fett.ДЇirst conceptualized for The Empire Strikes Back as a group of white-armored ' supercommandos', the idea developed into a single bounty hunter character, Boba Fett. Mandalorians are fictional people associated with the planet Mandalore in the Star Wars universe and franchise created by George Lucas.
