Does anyone like them? I do. I think they rock! I think they make great Bounty Hunters. We only see one Trandoshan in KOTOR, in a hallway in Davik's palace. We have ALL defeated it, but why aren't there more in films or videogames such as KOTOR etc. Or in SWBF2? ( Star Wars Battlefront 2 )

Have you got any arguments? :O :)

If so, here's the place to report them..... :)

Thank you.

I used to play as a Trandoshan in Star Wars Galaxies. I thought it was cool because it was one of the lesser played races, and it was sweet to be a lizard man.
And I think you forgot to mention one of my favorite characters Bossk.

Good... Bad... I'm the one with the gun.

mods for SWBF2 have Trandoshans. those mods, however, only exist for the PC. and trandoshans, like Bossk, make bad bounty hunters. hell, 4-LOM and Zuckuss are better than him.

Seriously? How confusing.

j/k. It is not that confusing. ;) :P

I like Trandoshans; especially their voices!  The sounds Bossk makes at that Imperial officer in Ep. V are Scary!!!

You must not be thinking clearly as Bossk is one of the few people in the Star Wars Universe to ever have Boba Fett admit defeat to them.

Trandoshans are my favorite species :)

Trandoshans are ok, but as far as my favorite lizard man goes in SW, it's got to be the Barabel.  They're more of what I like in the Reptile-man creature: still has tail, and has a more reptilian head.  The only picture I have of one is in my New Essential Guid to Alien Species, so it may not be 100% accurate. 

Even if it is, I'm still waiting for the PERFECT lizard-man species.  The image in my mind is a humaniod form and legs, with a head much like a Komodo Dragon's, and alligator-like ridge line down the back, and alligator like tail, but narrower, and of course powerful talon'ed hands :D

Whay about the only Trandoshan in KOTOR? We only ever see one in that game, has he got a name? :O :)

You're foolish words can never hurt me

I'd say the perfect lizard man is the Lizard.  Spider-mans foe.

Trandoshans are much more plentiful in kotor 2. I like the ex bounty hunter Vossk

I was going to suggest a Falleen, but then I remembered they don't have tails, or reptilian heads. They have everything else though :P 

Anyway, Trandoshans are okay, not my favorite though. I tend to go more towards the Falleen when it comes to Reptoids. Although Trandoshans do make excellent Bounty Hunters.

The Falleen are really neat; I need to read some more of the EU with Prince Zixor and learn more about them.  Very Vampire'esk in their ways I think     *I'm a vampire fan on the side*

Lol. Lizard pictures are cool.

What about a Komodo Dragon?

Just joking! :D

Personally, I am not a big fan of reptile species. From what I hav eread of them they get a pretty bad rap.

I LOVE lizard people!  Always was a fun concept to me.  Trandoshian's looks were a bit of a let down to me, but othere's out there I love, especially some not on the SW univers, like the Argonians of The Elder Scrolls games.

Ah yes, Trandoshans..........I have been thinking of Bossk lately because of the series of the Bounty Hunter Wars I am currently reading. Personally, I think Bossk is the third most successful bounty hunter in the star wars galaxy....

1st: Boba Fett
2nd: Jango Fett
3rd: Bossk

I think they have a great way of "dealing" with thier problems. Anger is the worst way to blind yourself in battle, but it makes Trandoshans (along with everyone else) much stronger. ;)

I love trandoshans.They're so cool in JK DF II(Jedi Knight Dark Forces II)
And I love to kill them in Republic Commando. :)

I like to kill the  " only " Trandoshan in KOTOR I in Davik's Estate/ Palace.

I think he is a bounty hunter! :P :)

not a huge Trando person. Dumb, prone to fits of rage, etc. Another successful bounty hunter was Montross. He wasn't half bad. Bossk is just so freakin' dumb.

Not all of them are dumb, thats stereotypical. Most of them are, but not all of them

i like the idea of the feud between wookies and trandos.
makes for a good storyline
and a wookie fighting a trando, whats more epic than that!

another thing, what futuristic/fantasy movie/book doesent have some form of lizard men?

Beneath this mask there is more than flesh. Beneath this mask there is an idea, Mr. Creedy, and ideas are bulletproof.

I think its interesting, the wookiees and trandoshan's cultures are so similar, but their such big enemies.

Why is that, May I ask?

I know Bossk has always wanted Chewbacca's Pelt.

Trandoshans hunt Wookie's for sport. :| :)

Trandoshans are way cool. Bossk is one of the coolest bounty hunters, even though he's not the smartest, he got enough smarts to get around and he is probably stronger than any human. Seriously, the armored Trandos in Republic Commando are insanely hard. And the Lizard from Spider-man is cool, too.

I love Bossk's character, and a well played TRANDO is so awesome to have around, but they have a way od dying as they are less than tame in a fight and tend to get roughed up a bit with all theri risk taking, but you have to love/fear them as a foe. 

They make the perfect enemy for human kind, they are our polar opposites in many ways.  They make great default enemies from D&D to STAR WARS.

Thanks for being so damn nasty and scary.

Yeah Viking1, Trands are very scary and fierce.

They make great bounty hunters and soldiers! :D

not sure they're very good soldires; don't think you can expect a creature that eats it's brothers and sisters at birth to be much of a team-mate in battle.  maybe I'm wrong

True, a wouldn't want a guy who has eaten his own family next to me in a foxhole, you have to admit that guy is already a survivor and he would do well with ARMY chow to boot.

LOL, good point

However, if he runs out of Army chow, I might be next on the menu  :P

Lol.

Yeah, maybe he'll come for you RD and eats you! :P ;)

Or maybe he will eats Viking1 or............... :D

Maybe he will eats me!?! :P :D
