Scoop of ice cream… makers, that is.

The Mandalorian producer and writer Jon Favreau has taken to Instagram again to share a cool image from the live-action series which is now filming. The image Favreau shared looks a lot like the piece of equipment carried by none other than Willrow Hood, the man seen escaping Cloud City during The Empire Strikes Back with what turned out to be an ice cream maker.

What might also be likely is that the post by Favreau is a subtle way of showing solidarity with Star Wars writer Chuck Wendig who was fired today from Marvel Star Wars comics for his outspoken liberal views online. The character of Willrow Hood was set to appear in Wendig’s upcoming Marvel comic Star Wars: Shadow of Vader which Wendig is now no longer attached to. It’s difficult to say if the prop shared by Favreau will have any real significance to the series, but it definitely tells us that Favreau knows some very deep cut fan favorites.
