I Found Star Wars's Most Obscure Alien

The production value is really high that I can tell this channel is going places. Good video, Dan! Also my Glup Shitto is Therm Scissorpunch, and I feel he was snubbed in this video. Couldn’t even be an honorable mention?!

[@StarWarsCentralized]

Thanks Sheev, I appreciate it greatly! But after Therm appeared so majorly in The High Republic Adventures (2022) he doesn’t come to mind as much for me when considering Glup Shittos. If you like him you should definitely read at least issue 5 & 6!

[@feragosmyxixarashtra7948]

@@StarWarsCentralized Personally My Glub Shitto is Wam Lufba, the Yuzzum from Endor which was tricked to become the Pest Exterminator at Jabba's Palace. He barely exists In-Universe, and I only found out about Him because of My Copy of Ultimate Star Wars and because of the Force Attax Card Game that had released a Card of Him back in the Day, since they seemed to release some Minor and Obscure Characters in those Packs. Also the Design of this Shaggy and Weirdly Lanky Furguy holding a Giant Blaster Rifle just never fails to kind of crack Me up. He looks very Goofy.

I myself think that most of the sequel stuff is bad, although there are some good parts of it and in all fairness it is nice that some people enjoy them.

[@kingwolf3044]

Just imagine if Disney (or who might buy Star Wars from them in the future) decided to get together a team of super dedicated fans turned staff and have them make a complete encyclopedia. Every single character. Every single species. Every single ship. Every single location. No matter how obscure or unimportant. That would be an instant fan favorite book among the fans. It’d be massive and expensive so I could understand maybe dividing it up into multiple books by topic.

[@ramsaysanders3986]

In 2008 they tried that with the Complete Star Wars Encyclopedia which had to be split into three volumes, having a modern one would be awesome

[@kingwolf3044]

Awesome.

how do i keep finding random people from the gcc server in the comments of almost every star wars related video i watch now lmao

[@chewy99.]

1:40 That guy in the middle of the shot in the darkness with the hood on is also in Maz’s castle in TFA. He’s a shapeshifter species, but he kinda looks similar in TFA. So that’s another pre-established species that was in the sequel trilogy.

[@StarWarsCentralized]

Yes he did! I love that detail and I did indeed forget to mention it!

[@chewy99.]

I like Kid Malmash, Oppo Rancisis, and Coleman Kcaj. Sad they killed off Kcaj to see his body in the Kenobi show, I was sure that was Pablo-Jill instead. I really hope Oppo survives into the sequel trilogy era and can return to help teach Rey. He’s like the last hope of the Jedi council.

[@StarWarsCentralized]

That would be so awesome!!

[@theszorm2653]

I am glad to see more people apreciating the sequels and the Last Jedi ❤

[@StarWarsCentralized]

I love them all!!!

[@Daniel-Strain]

Much of the sequels takes place in the Western reaches, which is on the fringe of settled space and near wild space, where the First Order emerged from. So it makes sense that a bunch of rare species would be in and around these events.

[@matheusalves5160]

You know some species that i love for absolutely no reason at all? Catumen and Draethos. I can't explain, i just like them.

Chiss are humans. They're basically star wars dark elves to the human high elfs. They're derived from humans evolved in a particular environment. From what I understand.

[@violetlight1548]

Chiss are "near-humans", like Zeltrons, Miraluka, Pantorans or other aliens who are basically just "humans with a paint job". There's been enough isolation/time so that near-human species are considered their own thing. (or, from the Chiss point of view, humans are 'near-Chiss')

[@violetlight1548]

I had the pleasure of meeting Timothy Zahn at a convention last summer, and one of my most pressing questions for him was what did three of the Unknown Regions aliens featured in his Ascendency Trilogy look like -- the Paccosh, Garwian and Vak, allies of Thrawn who came to help him (of their own accord) in the final battle of the trilogy. TZ's rather diplomatic answer was that he *didn't* have a clear mental picture of them, and that they looked like whatever we, the readers, envisioned them as. A little frustrating as a fan writer, but one of the others in my writing group came up with some beautiful concept art of the Paccosh, so I'm going with that. It would be nice to see them on-screen (or in a comic) at some point though. In my AU, all three stay allied with one another after Thrawn's exile, and become a new faction called the "Sunrise Alliance", after the planet over which the battle took place. This is highly unusual for the usually-isolationist Unknown Regions cultures. Then, shortly after 6 ABY, the Sunrise Alliance joins their old ally again, becoming proud members of the Empire of the Hand. TZ himself said he still considers all his "old" Legends stories canon, and writes his newer books with the idea in mind that Disney can "re-canonize" them at any time. Who am I to disagree with him? Anyway, it's nice to see I'm not the only one who cares about these little details! I feel vaildated! I've also added your friend's alien directory to my writing group's references, so thank you for that!

[@StarWarsCentralized]

Thanks so much for the thoughtful comment! I really really do care about the tiny details and appreciate finding others who do too.

[@wedgeodyssey3275]

It had been 40 years since he was last spotted online. To bring stability to this grim future we faced without him, many of his fans flocked to other youtubers, in hopes for finding the same joy he brought them. Occasionally, his name might have been brought up, in passing remark, or whilst honouring the legends that came before. However, these mentions, these "glitches" almost, became less frequent, and we began to loss hope of a future when he would return. I however, I remained hopeful, hopeful of this future, for many years. Until now, this evening, when I heard a familiar voice. It was then I released. That future I hoped for, that future that saw his return. It was now. The Future is Now. Welcome back DT.

[@Dimply_Does_Stuff]

I appreciate the inclusion of the ugor. Once I've seen the ugor in solo, I've been very interested in their species,which brings me to encouraging the production of a part 2! I would like to see how many aliens you can find like one of my favorites, the gand or maybe that worm species (TFA SP. #13) that is subtly seen in the background of maz's castle who would (I think) make an appearance in obi wan kenobi at episode 2 at the time 2:26 minutes into the episode where one and what seems to be its offspring walking on the left of the screen. (Side note the bufopel species makes an appearance in the mandalorian season 3 episode 3 chapter 19 "the convert" at 32:08 minutes into the episode and an appearance as "Bufopel Protector" in star wars commander rebels mobile game, a game that would be taken down.)

[@StarWarsCentralized]

I love the Bufopel! I noticed that one too!!! Thanks for your great comment. What would this “part 2” ideally explore?

[@Dimply_Does_Stuff]

I would like to see the inclusion of more glup shitto's, and weird and unique species that are limitedly used like the xexto, ortolan, trodatome, and parwans.

An alien I'd love to see in love action or animation is an ortolan who isn't Max rebo walking around in their Canon form where they don't have arms and play instruments with their feet. As for why there were all new aliens for the sequels, they probably wanted to give the designers a chance to create their own aliens to mirror the magic of the original trilogy where most aliens were new designs in each film

[@TheMimiSard]

I don't mind how common humans and Twi'Lek are. We know what our RL world population is like, and I think Twi'Lek are used as the other "Breeds pretty fast Humanoid" and is also spread for an alternate reason to human colonial spread (i.e. Twi'Leks got spread by slavery). But on one detail in this video, I really appreciate how the new TV shows are using creatures from previously made pieces of canon. Similar to the Dor Namethian, I appreciate how the Anzellans were used again in "The Mandalorian". I love how Mother Talzin was based on a piece of concept art from when they were trying to invent Maul, and then she was made Maul's mother (or at least the Great Mother of his birth community, because I know Legends has a different Nightsister as his mother), and the whole idea that Maul is Dathomiri, bringing back a culture first introduced in a novel as well (and went on to a major second-gen character who was half-Dathomiri - yes I am talking about Tenel Ka). I appreciate how Clone Wars highlighted as many Jedi as they could. Rebels gave us a major character who was a Twi'Lek who was not playing the "Sexy Alien Woman" role, the live action shows brought animated characters to life, while also really adhering to the OT aesthetic (the OT tried not to be Late 70s, but Late 70s slipped through, and the shows replicated it).

The problem with the sequels is that a lot of the aliens they made for the sequals, is thay they made them because most of the aliens thay didnt feature in the OG trilogoy are actually licensed. IE disney would have to pay someone for their intellectual property, which based on how much fan art they have stolen for their comics line and the last god awful movie, is quite unlikely. Its why i dont watch any of the disney shit is because they did what lucas never did, they fucked people over

[@StarWarsCentralized]

What do you mean they license aliens?

[@abadalfa]

I'm sorry to tell you, this was not someone caring about detail. They have a list already, created many years ago with all the alien species, planets, characters, named and unnamed from all of the sources. They can simply choose randomly from the list of stuff that hasn't been used in movies. This was clearly an attempt to use that species, they made a new concept art and someone else made the animatronic in another department, which resulted in that bad adaptation you see. The sequels are not as romantic and artistic as one might think.

[@StarWarsCentralized]

I disagree. Yes it was intended to be a new species, but still- SOMEBODY noticed that and cared enough to make a new species name that referenced the original description.

[@StarWarsCentralized]

The sequels have some amazing love and care put into them

[@abadalfa]

@@StarWarsCentralized No one noticed that from a rare card my man. They just have list excell command "stuff we haven't used". Look into interviews from the people at Disney's Lucasfilm about how they don't have time or resources to invest artistically the way they want and how disconnected everyone is from each other. Just look at the Pykes, Ahsoka, Cad Bane, Chewbacca, Luke, the Inquisitors. They can't even make them cohesive to the original version or any version. It's like a different universe now.
