Introduction

Star Wars Galaxy of Adventures is a micro-series that retells key moments from the Star Wars franchise in bite-sized, animated form.

The kid-oriented series debuted on the ‘Star Wars Kids’ YouTube Channel and website, StarWarsKids.com, on 03 November 2018.

Using stylised animation, the series of shorts re-imagine key scenes from the saga, initially leading up to the release of Episode IX – The Rise of Skywalker. The shorts feature audio from the original films (with narration by Dante Basco) and are animated by Titmouse, Inc.

Outline

The video opens with FN-2187 entering Poe Dameron’s cell aboard the Resurgent-class Star Destroyer Finaliser and telling him that he can help him to escape. Poe asks why he is helping him and FN-2187 replies that because it is the right thing to do.

The video then zooms to a shot of the Finaliser’s crowded hangar. Poe and FN-2187 climb into the cockpit of a two-seater TIE/sf space superiority fighter. Poe says that he has always wanted to fly one of these “things.” They fire up the TIE fighter but find that it is still attached to a wire. Following a gun battle with First Order stormtroopers, they blast their way out of the hangar. While taking out the Finaliser’s laser cannons, Poe asks FN-2187 what is his name. FN-2187 gives his trooper designation but Poe refuses to use that and calls him Finn, a name which Finn likes.

The video then shifts to Poe and Black Squadron blasting First Order forces during the Battle of Takodana. Finn joins the battle and shoots down a pair of stormtroopers. While Poe pursues and shoots down a TIE/fo space superiority fighter, Finn cheers as Poe races by.

Later, Finn meets with Poe and tells Finn that he completed his mission to deliver the Map to Skywalker to the Resistance. Finn wants to return Poe’s jacket but Poe tells him to keep the jacket because it suits him. The video ends with the two friends standing beside Poe’s T-70 X-wing starfighter Black One.
