When the Mandalorian first communicates with the Tusken Raiders, his sign language translates to: "We're hunting and ask permission to cross your land." It's a simple answer to their question "Why do you come here?"

Clear photo reference of the Perspex sign over the front entrance to the Mos Eisley cantina was provided to The Mandalorian crew by Star Wars: A New Hope set designer Roger Christian, via cantina experts Tom Spina Designs president Tom Spina and Lucasfilm creative executive Pablo Hidalgo. Star Wars illustrator Chris Reiff created the final cantina sign graphics utilized on the Los Angeles backlot set for The Mandalorian: Chapter 4.

The booth in the Mos Eisley cantina in which the Mandalorian and Toro Calican confer is the very same one where Jabba the Hutt’s lackey Greedo met his end in 1977’s Star Wars: A New Hope, Calican sitting where Solo did almost a decade earlier.

Concept artist Brian Matyas referenced medieval jousting helmets, but with feminine and aggressive curves, when designing the headwear for Fennec Shand for The Mandalorian Chapter 4: "The Gunslinger." For her costume, Matyas wanted to reflect her role as a high- class assassin with geometric shapes and fashionable colors and fabric textures. Part of the design brief Matyas received for Fennec was to explore the shape and opulence of Cloud City Baron Administrator Lando Calrissian’s costume from Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back.
