Artist Derek Thompson explored the warriors of the galaxy by illustrating familiar alien cultures during wartime. Here, the Ithorians -- or Hammerheads -- are ready to defend their homeworld and colonies.

cool, are they in the movie?

Thanks Mata

thanks man for the pic!!!

Sorta looks like the species in the Cantina on Tatooine from A New Hope

Thank you, Mata.

Any one with the full version?

Coulda been cool to see. Man, I can't wait to get the Art of Episode III book. It's gonna be cool to see these types of ideas that they didn't use.

thx Matafaka.
Hammerheads own!

Cool ; hopefully if illustrated in ROTS, another stitch to A New Hope

Cool. Thanks Matafaka.

Cool, thanx

LOL! Another one to upset EU fans - Aren't Ithorians pacifists?

yeah...BIG time....in KOTOR II you have to help them in their eternal quest for peace

Jkozzy: I think that it is supposed to be the same as the cantina species, cause the caption says that they wanted them to take "familiar" species and show them defending their homeworld, so I think thats what they're tryin to do!

It will be amusing to see their whole "herd" getting its ass kicked.

The Ithorians were always peaceful, but were sympathetic to the Rebels during the Galatic Civil War, maybe they seek peace but will defend themselves, unlike Alderaan which is a planet ot tree huggun hippies who get blown out of existence

I can see princess leia in her younger years; hair all out like at endor, making beads, doing drugs, and saying "fight the power of the empire dudes!"

Pacifism doesn't mean Ithorians would never fight what they believe in. Of course they would defend themselves against an invasion. Though they would work for peace and try their hardest to preserve it.

If Alderaan is like Switzerland, don't forget the chocolate.
