Has anyone else ever thought that Watto's accent sounds like a stereotypical Italian character? I wish, just once, that he'd say, "...that's a spicy meata ball...".

I thought he sounded italian also. But he did have a gravelly voice, like someone who would work in a place like that.

The Trade Federation accent is Thai, I believe.

Scottish but he uses an English accent I think.
The trade fedaration sound Asian because it was two Thai actors who originally did the voices. They just used there own accents.
