Of more interest is that this is the first real glimpse fans are getting of the new voices the ’bots will have in the new Kickstarted version of the show. As previously announced, comedians Hampton Yount and Baron Vaughn are handling Crow and Tom duties, respectively, and will be joining Jonah Ray, Felicia Day, and Patton Oswalt in the revamped show. So enjoy watching the new ’bots navigate the intricacies of the casting process while attempting to join the illustrious pantheon of other Star Wars robotic actors like C-3PO, IG-88, and whatever that weird interrogation sphere thing was in A New Hope.
