Day 479, Quasi-Quarantine: Filling The Omega-Sized Hole In Bad Batch Missions

 

An enhanced human female clone from the Jango Fett template, Omega has unexpectedly appeared on the scene to become a central character and fan favorite on "The Bad Batch."

Originally serving as a medical assistant, she was forced to flee Kamino by attaching herself to Clone Force 99 -- the Bad Batch.

Credited with heightened awareness and the ability to pick up new things, Omega quickly became adept at using an energy bow. This new skill comes in handy, as she has become a sought-after commodity for mysterious parties -- even being pursued by notorious bounty hunters Cad Bane and Fennec Shand.


In the show, Omega serves to personalize the Bad Batch, forcing them to take on avuncular roles for a small girl who still has dolls. Boosted by a vaguely British accent, she has unassuming, endearing qualities that at least partially obscure her importance -- and power -- in the post-Order 66 landscape.

Unfortunately, Omega seems to have been overlooked in the summer wave of Star Wars Lego sets, so we did our best to represent her. Hers is an evolving appearance, so we'll be constantly looking to upgrade, but this is a solid start.
