They literally told you 2 hours after the kit reveal :/

My point is they've known jango was a toon that alot of people wanted. They've also acknowledged that some of the player base is upset with marquees. They could have got out in front of this and told everybody when they posted the teaser that the new toon would be marquee.

They should have delayed someone like Jango (and when i say someone like Jango, I mean fan favourite) for a 2 or 3 weeks and release him as legendary.

Maybe you dont think he should be legendary because he is not your type of character but imagine if they released jedi luke as marquee because it was allready on schedule as a marquee. Would that be good enough explaination for you

There isn't any character that I feel too strongly about that should require a certain release structure. As long as the kit is good and true to the character (and fun!). I love Darth Nihilus, and he was a marquee. I love Darth Sion and he was a marquee. KOTOR II's protagonist can be a marquee or a raid toon and I wouldn't complain either way as long as its Free-to-play at the end of the day. Mother Talzin and Wicket had a special release structure that was more premium and it was awful. Imagine if that's how they released Jango just so he isn't marquee. Darth Vader had a very premium unlocking feature (Achievements) and, so did Baze Malbus, Chirrut Imwe and ShoreTrooper (SQUAD TOURNAMENTS) -- Two no name toons that were given premium unlocking conditions. I think highly popular characters deserve a premium unlock but its fine if they don't (Sion, Nihilus, Jango). Its the reverse that I would complain about (Droideka's getting legendary release for example). Shoretrooper and Baze, and chirrut being premium unlocks is very weird given how highly competitive it was to unlock them.

I think when they introduced quests, they missed an opportunity for a unique character unlock similar to Darth Vader

People are complaining that Jango is marquee but were open to the idea of Jango Fett being a new Territory Battle reward similar to ROLO.

Lets take a minute and consider that option,

New TB = high difficulty for special mission (G12+ and 6 dot mods would be recommended for that new TB.)
Most guilds won't be able to do 100/100 shards. You get 2 TBs per month. A third TB would be rotating every 1.5 months. Even if you do a perfect score, you would need to do 4 TBs of Jango to get 330 shards to boost him to 7 stars. Then there are bugs, and other issues of a new TB. That is at least 4 months of TB on the bare minimum. Not that different from marquees.

I will admit I do think no name characters like Shore or Baze shouldn't have a premium status for unlocking but the reverse is fine. Premium characters like Nihilus, Sion and the likes being marquee or not doesn't matter. To me, the kit is more important.

I don't have an issue if Jango was legendary. Do I think he's the hype people make him out to be? No but I do see the love that the community has for him and wouldn't be strongly opposed to it or complain about him being legendary.

His kit is spot-on
