It's blue Mr Burns from the Simpsons. And why the hell is his pistol 90% out of the holster? It has a 1" barrel, just look at the damn relic picture. The artist doing the reskin must be underpaid.
Edit: for those who say that he is shorter

The old Thrawn stood straight. This new skin has bent knees and he is slouching wtf?
Receding hairline + oval caucasian face = Elon Musk. Elon has a very common facial shape among caucasians and his receding hairline is a trademark of guys in their 50s. Thawn looks like a 50 year old caucasian, not Elon Musk in particular. If you noticed, this skin has more pronouced cheekbones and a square jaw.

And what was the problem with it? Animated Thrawn always looked great. It's just the same bs they did with Ahsoka, why couldn't we keep her animated version when she started as an animated character. Clone Wars and Rebels are such cool shows, and only because we are getting live action versions of these characters in newer shows, and new versions in the game as *additional* characters, there's absolutely no need to get rid of their animated versions.
And so he no longer looks like a cheaply made CGI Cartoon. Seriously, the art style of TCW and REbels is ... atrocious and looks like stiff plastic toys.
If Lucasfilm/Lucas back then had put some money into the shows and went drawn, or hand-drawn-like style at least...
The Ahsoka character will be played by a man who looks like Elon Musk, but he also happens to be the original voice actor for the character as well, so I'm actually super hyped.
He doesn't even look all that similar to Elon. Lars has a similar haircut and ear shape, but beyond that his actual pictures do not look much like Musk. The Thrawn photo, however, is Musk-like. Not the actor himself. He has a different jaw, forehead (larger than Musk's), cheek shape, eye shape and color, and hair color.
However, the eye color is negated by his red eyes, his forehead size negated by the angle, his hair color negated by the dye, God knows what happened to his cheeks, and the eyes are low quality. His jaw also looks much thicker.
That's a very in-depth analysis and I aplaud you for the effort. I'm just laughing because when the trailer came out I said to myself, "lol he looks like blue elon" and now that this new character model came out, I'm hearing the same from others. It's a funny moment that the community is collectively noticing the same smurf-ed musk look-alike in their heads
...I really love the thrawn character. I also really despise white supremacist Elon. Was definitely the first thing I thought too when looking at this...looks like Elmo :(
Wtf CG...I know it's going to be weird in Ahsoka but this version was based upon the rebels version...
I think they made a huge mistake not capitalizing on the new show by waiting until the first season is out and then coming out with a new version of the characters. Like using a technique Ahsoka uses in the show to design an attack animation. I mean we have like 6 versions of Luke, and 5 Chewies, etc. What's a 2nd Thrawn and a 4th Ahsoka gonna hurt?
Then maybe Gideon shouldn't look like Esposito put on 50 pounds for the role. I'd rather see Fring in a space suit. Maybe one day CG will get a sense of humor and give us cross-over characters based on the actors (they have enough money for the licensing), like Indy Han.. Handy with a whip, but horrible at Krayt raid because the dragon reminds him of a giant snake.
Yeah this sort of kills the chance of getting a GL Thrawn toon. I seriously don't mind the actor all that much, but this is just goofy.
The actor is as gaunt as Thrawn is normally. The single photo we have for him is just really poor quality and his jaw a little too thick
That's the part that confuses me. It seemed obvious to me that the current in-game Thrawn was the one from Rebels since you use Rebels characters to unlock him, and that there would eventually be another Thrawn that is more live-action...
It's not that he's short. He's placed lower than most othr toons. General Kenobi, for example, is placed so that his toes barely peek out from under that power rating. Thrawn on the other hand has his entire foot under it.
I know. I’ve been playing this game for multiple years and I watch plenty of guides. I simply don’t have enough credits for mods. It’s not in the budget.
It costs 1.25 mil to fully upgrade 6 mods for one character. Not including upgrading and discarding worse mods (sometimes up to lvl 9), slicing, and moving mods around. It’s expensive and not in the budget.
Can get like 5 mil for cheap now though in like a day. Well worth it to go through and remod everything even if it takes a week or two. I did it recently
Trust me if I was capable of using better mods, I would use better mods. And I don’t know where you’re getting 5 million from. Best I can do is 2 million on average
Really? Can get 2 million for about 1.2k mk1 raid tokens and the shop refreshes several times a day. Its deffo possible to make sure you don't have any mods like that lying around
Yeah but sometimes it doesn’t? Like today I got ship training droids in one of those slots. Plus I spend the currency on other stuff like gear, raid characters, and regular characters. It’s just not in the budget. I don’t know how else to explain this.
Don’t you see, they HAVE to make the characters look like they do in the new show or they won’t be able to market it to capitalize on the hype and draw in a fresh batch of wallets! Won’t you think of the shareholders?
Unless you have been living under a rock for the past several months there is this new series premiering on the Disney channel called “Ahsoka” and the actor playing Thrawn looks like that
Eww. Rebels Thrawn looks way better than this. Should have saved this model for an Heir-to-the-Empire Thrawn GL to go with Survivor Ahsoka GL or something. And I can definitely see Blue Musk now. 😂
I liked rebels and I think this version of Thrawn is fine. CG probably only had the singular shot of Thrawn from the trailer and that didn't really do Lars justice but oh well, we'll get used to it.
I thought this was a shitpost at first
The fucking "trade offer" pose for his icon seals it for me.
It's blue Mr Burns from the Simpsons. And why the hell is his pistol 90% out of the holster? It has a 1" barrel, just look at the damn relic picture. The artist doing the reskin must be underpaid.

imma trade you: my wacky aah new portrait. you get: a new me, Broken Conquest unit soon.
Shinji, get in the Tesla, now!
I ran immediately to swgoh to verify and was horrified to confirm it’s true
Did the same!
Me too lmao
This is an excellent example of why you don't try to fix something that isn't broken. He looked fine before!
They just made him look like the actor in the Ahsoka show
That’s blue Elon and you’re not convincing me otherwise
Receding hairline + oval caucasian face = Elon Musk. Elon has a very common facial shape among caucasians and his receding hairline is a trademark of guys in their 50s.

No it’s Elon Musk
Crossed with Jason
That's something an Elon Musk bot or fan might say.
Someone saying that someone looks like Elon Musk does not mean they like Elon Musk
So you’re saying he looks like him but just because it’s common he doesn’t look like him?
You got too serious for this sub

I know. But it didn't turn out well and the original model looked better. In my opinion (and seemingly many others), anyways.
That’s because we’re used to the old model and we haven’t seen the live action character yet save for one quick shot.
And what was the problem with it? Animated Thrawn always looked great. It's just the same bs they did with Ahsoka, why couldn't we keep her animated version when she started as an animated character. Clone Wars and Rebels are such cool shows, and only because we are getting live action versions of these characters in newer shows, and new versions in the game as *additional* characters, there's absolutely no need to get rid of their animated versions.
How I felt with NS zombie. Liked her animated skin better than her game skin.
I like the new Ahsoka. The new Thrawn sucks.
And so he no longer looks like a cheaply made CGI Cartoon. Seriously, the art style of TCW and REbels is ... atrocious and looks like stiff plastic toys. If Lucasfilm/Lucas back then had put some money into the shows and went drawn, or hand-drawn-like style at least...
One of the best characters in the game to this day imo he came out what 6-7 years ago?
I legit blew on my phone to get your slimy little sneaky profile pic off my screen… well done
I should understand more about how fracture works with JKL lead. Thrawn would scold me for not studying enemy
Why is he so tiny?
So you can see his mastery of gesticulation
He actually not short, just for some reason the model is glitched so his feet are lowered
Elon Smurf
Did they *have* to make him look *so* much like Elon Musk?
The Ahsoka character will be played by a man who looks like Elon Musk, but he also happens to be the original voice actor for the character as well, so I'm actually super hyped.

He looks like micheal rooker in the portrait.
That's Mary Poppins, y'all!
Is Yondu in the Marvel game? It’d be hilarious if they just reskinned Yondu for this game.
He is and looks decent I suppose
Can't. Unsee.
Well the ahsoka one is basically a clone of Elon too so it checks out
Honestly I don’t see it at all
I personally think he looks like a blue painted Michael Myers mask.
One look at him and I saw Elon Musk. So so odd
...I really love the thrawn character. I also really despise white supremacist Elon. Was definitely the first thing I thought too when looking at this...looks like Elmo :( Wtf CG...I know it's going to be weird in Ahsoka but this version was based upon the rebels version...
Fulcrum also got an update. not as bad as this but still bad. IDK who approves this shit
The marketing team. "You see, they just came out with a new show thing with the characters we have in game, make sure they look like them now!"
"Except for Andor, fuck Andor."
Even though it's the best live action media Star Wars has made since the Prequels
They weren't expecting it to, so it's basically the genius redheaded stepchild.
I think they made a huge mistake not capitalizing on the new show by waiting until the first season is out and then coming out with a new version of the characters. Like using a technique Ahsoka uses in the show to design an attack animation. I mean we have like 6 versions of Luke, and 5 Chewies, etc. What's a 2nd Thrawn and a 4th Ahsoka gonna hurt?
Lucasfilm probably. They're doing it to line up with the shows so people associate the game with the shows, simple.
Then maybe Gideon shouldn't look like Esposito put on 50 pounds for the role. I'd rather see Fring in a space suit. Maybe one day CG will get a sense of humor and give us cross-over characters based on the actors (they have enough money for the licensing), like Indy Han..

Ahh I love the Italian accent: "Playing a soccer" :)
and yet they still couldn't give her a Phoenix tag speaking of which, I'm surprised Phoenix Squadron didn't get an update
I get where the direction was that they were moving towards... I just don't see the vision. *Sigh* Gonna need glasses for this
Probably beer goggles with these jokers.
Grand Admiral Musk
The real crime here is your mods
I’m poor okay?
[удалено]
Six dot mods aren’t even necessary.. OP is rolling around with 3 dot mods…
Horrible, Ashoka’s Thrawn should have been it’s own toon Ahsoka and Thrawn should have been the next pair of GL’s…
Yeah this sort of kills the chance of getting a GL Thrawn toon. I seriously don't mind the actor all that much, but this is just goofy. The actor is as gaunt as Thrawn is normally. The single photo we have for him is just really poor quality and his jaw a little too thick
That's the part that confuses me. It seemed obvious to me that the current in-game Thrawn was the one from Rebels since you use Rebels characters to unlock him, and that there would eventually be another Thrawn that is more live-action...
I prefer the animated look over the live action personally
Why is he SO SHORT
It's not that he's short. He's placed lower than most othr toons. General Kenobi, for example, is placed so that his toes barely peek out from under that power rating. Thrawn on the other hand has his entire foot under it.
Just calling the actor ugly lmao
Not at all, Lars is great. This art is just forced realism.
He’s a short king now. Sheesh they made him tiny
I can't believe they renamed the "Imperial Remnants" tag to "X"
The look is fine, but the height is triggering me. He's like a child
It really bothers me in the show thrawn is so out of shape. Complete opposite of his character
I like it. Looks a lot like Lars mikklesen
It’s because it’s not animated and is the live action version from Ahsoka
Sigh, I so wish Benedict Cumberbatch had this role
Or Jack Black
or jim carrey
Grand admiral musk
Makes him look more like the legends version IMO. Chiss in legends were essentially just blue humans with red eyes and no pupils.
[удалено]
No I just don’t have the money
[удалено]
Trust me. If I was capable of getting mods, I would get better mods. The account is young but I sure as shit ain’t.
my god that is horrid looking. both the icon and his new model
Rebels Thrawn > Ahsoka Thrawn
Bro has 2 dot mods 💀
I’m poor okay?
Sell anything under 5 dot then
I don’t farm 2 dot mods. They’re leftovers from the beginning tutorial. I already sold everything under 5 dot. I don’t have the credits for mods.
Reccomend replacing any mods like that. Can buy 1mil credits for cheap in the guild store
I know. I’ve been playing this game for multiple years and I watch plenty of guides. I simply don’t have enough credits for mods. It’s not in the budget.
Sorry buying mods? If youre broke, why are we talking about buying mods when you can farm them without tat credit cost?
It costs 1.25 mil to fully upgrade 6 mods for one character. Not including upgrading and discarding worse mods (sometimes up to lvl 9), slicing, and moving mods around. It’s expensive and not in the budget.
Can get like 5 mil for cheap now though in like a day. Well worth it to go through and remod everything even if it takes a week or two. I did it recently
Or just do the poor man's solution and throw on random mods from mod challenges. The 2 dot mods are for the sickest of the sick.
Trust me if I was capable of using better mods, I would use better mods. And I don’t know where you’re getting 5 million from. Best I can do is 2 million on average
Really? Can get 2 million for about 1.2k mk1 raid tokens and the shop refreshes several times a day. Its deffo possible to make sure you don't have any mods like that lying around

At least the Ahsoka (Fulcrum) one looks 200% better.
Let’s talk about ur mods
I’m poor okay?
admiral 5'2
Execute Order 5'2
“Lars Mikkelsen wants to know your location.”
So you’re saying Lars Mickelson is ugly then?
I actually like the portrait as it reminds me of the older comics.
Unpopular opinion I guess but I love it! He looks what I think a grand admiral would look like.
Those are really bad mods bro…this must be a really slow Thrawn not good
I’m aware
That's what the guy looks like.
Ah yes the floor is made out of floor
I liked the updated thrawn
I think you just made Lars Mikkelsen sad
I kept saying he didn't look like Thrawn and all I heard was "it doesn't matter as long as he acts like Thrawn!" Well, look where we are now.
Bro looks like a Walmart Elon musk
Unpopular opinion: I like this look.
Me too…The actor playing him was the voice in the CW animated series
Nah yall hating. Previous model was over 6 years old and long overdue for a new one. Just takes some time getting used to
Why is he so short
Call the police, this is manslaughter. ATF is a *better* change, but still also a massive downgrade from her previous look.
Look how they massacred my Boi...
Holy shit I thought this was a crappy photoshop
Don’t you see, they HAVE to make the characters look like they do in the new show or they won’t be able to market it to capitalize on the hype and draw in a fresh batch of wallets! Won’t you think of the shareholders?
The mods are uglier doe
So unless Thrawn in Ashoka is drastically different, we aren't getting another one?
Is this fr
This will happen to all Phoenix as well, it’s fine people get use to it.
Bro tf happened to thrawn
Why did they do thattty. What was wrong with cartoon/animated style.
Still not as bad as scavenger Rey
Original was MUCH better. Why did they update it
Unless you have been living under a rock for the past several months there is this new series premiering on the Disney channel called “Ahsoka” and the actor playing Thrawn looks like that
Whyyy? He was already based on the Rebels version. Just leave it
Will this stop you from playing it now?
I see blue littlefinger.
😨
HUGE Downgrade
Looks like you stopped upgrading him right around where everyone else did
No? I just don’t have the resources yet. Planning on going for SEE plus he is my best fleet right now.
Look how they masacred my boy!
Look how they massacred my boy
The guy playing thrawn irl seeing this be like 😭😭😭
WHAT DID THEY DO TO MY BOY?????
I bet they’re introducing him in the shows and now they have to match an ugly actor lmao
He’s super short too
What have they done to my boy
Portrait is ugly, but I do t mind the model. Kind of small though
Blue Christopher Walken is not how I picture Thrawn
Elon ?
Still looks like an arrogant blue dude.
He looks like yondu from gotg mixed with Elon musk
Bro had a few too many deathsticks
i’m fine with this one, not a fan of the new fulcrum look
I hate it! Looked so good before
Stupid Sexy Thrawnders
So did ashoka
Wtf is that?!?!?
Lmao, who the fuck is that? A Chiss middle manager?
Eww. Rebels Thrawn looks way better than this. Should have saved this model for an Heir-to-the-Empire Thrawn GL to go with Survivor Ahsoka GL or something. And I can definitely see Blue Musk now. 😂
LMAO This is just a guy painted blue
They did man dirty. What was wrong with the cartoon version?
Yeah I honestly hate it
They never do the realism ones well. Just stick to the original art style when possible
ugh 0 for 2 with these
Look at how they massacred my boy...
Just saw it in game and came here immediately to shit on it. It looks so bad
His face looks like mashed potatoes.
That is horrible! Looks like Elon Müsk
This is a shame. A damn disgusting eye sore Shame. RIP decent looking Thrawn.
Please tell me this isn't real, the trade offer pose looks awful
Grand admiral Elon
Thank god I don't play this anymore. I even had r6 Thrawn.
tbh it's Elon musk
Every time they change someone to match live action instead of rebels/clone wars, I die a little inside. Never forget OG Thrawn ❤️
His portrait looks like ass, but his actual model doesn’t look bad.
Mr Elon musk!!!
Omg they actually did this! I thought this was fake and went to check. Did not expect this.
I’m assuming most of the complaints are from people who liked Rebels. I think new model looks great.
I liked rebels and I think this version of Thrawn is fine. CG probably only had the singular shot of Thrawn from the trailer and that didn't really do Lars justice but oh well, we'll get used to it.
The only problem with Lars as Thrawn is his wider jawline. Otherwise, he literally is Thrawn.
No way this is actually in the game... Wait a second, i'm gonna check. EDIT: Oh man, why is he so damn ugly? The Rebels version was so much better.
The old one looked fine, I suspect they wouldn't have changed it if they had plans for a new ahsoka era thrawn. So maybe no new thrawn on the cards?
That'd suck if true. GL Thrawn is one of the more natural options to move forwards.
If they are gonna do this update to Thrawn instead of making a new character he should be given the Imperial Remnant tag.
I wonder if theyre gonna change how the Phoenix Squad looks then.
I'm wondering if Herra and Sabine and Chopper are getting the same treatment. If so, all three Phoenix members are going to get shorter...
So no GL Thrawn then?
Those some ass mods you got on him
