What Do Tusken Raiders Really Look Like Under the Mask? - Star Wars Explained

With the Book of Boba Fett Episode 3 releasing we finally get to see the story of how Boba Fett became a member of a remote Tusken tribe and learned their ways and traditions. Boba became a very strong advocate for them and stood up for the tribe when the Pykes arrived on Tatooine after Jabba’s death… But what do the Tuskens Look like Under the mask? Well we’ve been shown only a few times so far, and I’m going to show you all of them.
So what do tuskens look like, tusken face and tusken under mask? Here it is! Tusken raider face and tusken raider unmasked will be shown in this video! #StarWars #TheBookOfBobaFett #TuskenRaider
So before we see what the Tuskens look like under the mask, it’s very important to understand how their species came to be and what shaped their very dark evolutionary path, to lead them where they are now.
The Tuskens are actually one of the most recent species to evolve in the Galaxy. Most species evolved many thousands of years before the formation of the Galactic Republic, but the Tuskens… and also the Jawas for that matter are new kids on the block… and you’re ab out to see the dark reason why that is in just a bit.
Tatooine began as a lush, tropical world where it’s Twin suns warmed a vast ocean and thick forests. The primary species who inhabited the planet were known as the Kumumgah and they were extremely advanced for the time, building large sprawling cities and even having the technology required to colonize the nearby planets. The elders of the Kumumgah however were deeply opposed to leaving their world and touching the rest of the galaxy, as they feared it would only bring pain and destruction upon them… Sadly, the elders were correct.
Their activities in the region attracted a horrifying amphibious species known as the Rakata to their world, who were touched by the dark side of the force. The Rakata managed to rise to be the apex predator species of the galaxy in these early times because of their ability to use the force in places were many others couldn’t. They had force powered hyperdrives and weapons, allowing them to expand their brutal empire to anywhere they deemed necessary… As was pretty typical for the Rakata, once they discovered Tatooine they immediately enslaved the population and killed many of its most skilled warriors. The Kumumgah were slaughtered at every turn and their cities were reduced to mere piles of scrap metal. On top of all of this, some of them were taken away by the Rakatans to be used as slave labor in the construction of the star Forge, which was a devastating automated shipyard intended to create the most monstrous fleet of all time.

I think it is better left to imagination. Showing what they look like while satisfying ruins the mystery.

[@LaraA55]

I so agree

[@MKZ3003]

Then why watch the video

[@hagram3653]

@@MKZ3003 Just because I don't like some information doesn't mean I want to be misinformed. I watched A. its not cannon and B. I still am interested.

[@MKZ3003]

@@hagram3653 So then if you watched it, you either knew you wouldn’t like the info, or you were informed, liked it, and complained?

[@hagram3653]

@@MKZ3003 I never complained...Star Force One himself liked my comment. He asked us if we would want an official Disney approved cannon view of the Tuskan Raiders faces. I said I wouldn't. I watched because I like star wars and I was interested. Despite the fact I would rather their faces remain head cannon, that doesn't mean I don't want to see what other people think and what has been shown in other star wars media.

The first costume I made was a Tusken Raider, so I got really into their lore back then. I didn't pay much attention to the Grave Tuskens before that, so was really surprised to notice they only wore a cap of sorts and a respirator. I went on to change the Wiki to actually mention that instead of "they were similar to the originals". I still remember screenshooting the game to make that image of both variants. Then I went on to probably being the first and only to make a Grave Tusken costume. I made a fiberglass "face" with the sort of dog-like appearance you can see between the cap and respirator, and still today this is what my head-canon shows them to look like, sort of like a less ugly Klatooinian.

[@WorgenGrrl]

I thought the only time a Tusken took off their mask and cloth is in the presence of family in their own dwelling. I think it was in a comic involving a Tusken Jedi

[@StarForceOne]

A'Sharad Hett wasn't a biological tusken, but I do love his story

[@arc6552]

He's a human but an honorary tusken I think

[@molvolgia]

Night of marriage, coming of age and at birth I believe are the times they can reveal their faces

[@paulydubbs2115]

It's crazy how much they evolved. They legit just split a single species into 2 which is insanely cool.

[@Notacriminal497]

Me who though those weren’t masks and just really really weird heads: 😶

My thoughts exactly for the longest time. As I got older, I figured they weren't entirely organic beings.

@StarForceOne Really enjoyed the in depth look into how the Tusken Raiders and Jawas came to be. It makes more sense to me why they are dressed the way they are. I am happy for them to stay as a mystery.

thanks ive been wondering, now ill watch :)

[@Stabby__]

Theory I've seen is "the armorer" is of tuskan decent, odd but a reasoning was the helmet she wears has the 4 nodes on top and adheres strictly to never removing her "helmet/mask" 🤷

[@StarWarsTonight]

The info in this video 🔥

[@3Rings4ElvenKings]

I always figured they looked more or less like a combination of a ghoul and a molerat (Fallout). Or that they were not entirely organic beings and the masks WERE their faces.

[@corradino7808]

Cooler than I expected

An idea! Add outfit to fallout 4. Face matches wasteland ghouls 😎

Can you put ultraskin Armisen weapons including all of the things that they use at according right everything Epson Montesano the weapons and the other stuff include armor in those who have one person can become a tusken Raider Commander or even a winter

Tuskens should one was a Jedi ?

[@philsagriff2304]

I would like to see them take off the face coverings somtimes. It would be kewl if the story makes them more like humans and how they feel about the world and give them more personalities we can get into. Boba was able to live with them and get to like them and respect them. I would like to understand what he seen in them more deeply. They are seen for the most part as savages with no feelings. I'm not saying to turn them into Saints, but to reveal more about them in the upcoming shows. 😊

Why do they scream like donkeys in the book of boba fett?
