The full trailer is out:
Starring a small band of heroes -- Sabine, Kanan, Hera, Ezra, Zeb, and Chopper -- Star Wars Rebels is set in a time where the Empire rules through fear and shrouds the galaxy in darkness. This trailer offers many new glimpses at sequences from the show, including the starship Ghost chased by TIE Fighters; young Ezra watching as a Star Destroyer looms overhead; Stormtroopers marching; a zero-g fight between our heroes and Imperials; and Kanan, a secret Jedi, assembling his lightsaber and preparing for battle. It ends, however, with an Imperial officer reporting to the Inquisitor -- the Empire's Jedi hunter, seen and heard here for the first time.
Star Wars Rebels takes place between Star Wars: Episode III and IV as the Empire tightens its grip on the galaxy and a rebellion begins to form. The series, executive produced by Dave Filoni, Simon Kinberg, and Greg Weisman, is scheduled to premiere in fall 2014 as a one-hour special telecast on Disney Channel and will be followed by a series on Disney XD.

I'm liking everything so far (Stormies look great), except Ezra and Kanan's faces, which somehow seem unfinished and bland. I guess we've been spoiled by the higher production value of The Clone Wars when it comes to facial animation? Maybe they'll look better once the show gets going just lik the CW improved over its run, but so far that's the place I feel like we're seeing the tighter budget on this show, erm, showing.

Together with the preview of upcoming Rebels action figures possibly revealing an OT character showing up, there will be another familiar face. Collider.com's video interview with Writer-Producer Simon Kinberg about Rebels has more - check out the link if you don't mind being spoiled on which character is confirmed as making an appearance

There will almost certainly be an "Updated and Revised" edition release after later seasons, so yet another duplicate sitting on the shelf ... of course, if we don't buy it, then they complain about "low sales" and not bother with any more ... Lose - Lose.
