DAY 508 UPDATE: A child who has a VERY similar appearance to the previously seen delegate has now appeared in the “The High Republic (2023) run, giving us a possible future chance to learn more about them and their species. Stay tuned for future updates regarding this one!

DAY 512 UPDATE: Recent depictions of the Mikkians in The High Republic do make this species seem at least a tiny bit more likely to be one, however, until we can learn more, it still has to remain speculation.

DAY 520 UPDATE: Tonči Zonjić, the concept artists who designed their distinct masks, has tweeted a few times about his involvement with Solo and the inception of these helmets! Unfortunately they give us little additional context; the same with Glyn Dillon’s tweet referencing them. Still, you can see the high quality versions of their art at their personal portfolio site here: https://www.to-zo.com/solo.

DAY 523 UPDATE: The aforementioned “mistake” was the following tweet regarding a species whose eyes can be seen at Galaxy’s Edge. For some reason I didn’t put together that it was simply a pink-variant Kyuzo like Constable Zuvio, but thankfully my loyal followers were quick to point that out! Turns out the character even has a name: Raga Bua. The more you know!
I can also now confirm the notion that this species appeared at the beginning of The Acolyte S1 E1! A few official images have been posted to starwars.com, including the one below.

DAY 527 UPDATE: Martin Fisher (@tronprogram2) finally got back to me on this one, and confirmed that this is, indeed, a green Muun! He also gave us a name for the character via a snipper of the script, so if this hadn’t been a Muun, it should have at least been “Abrish’s Species” (which I have since created a Wookieepedia page for as well, the first time I’ve had the pleasure of doing so)!

DAY 539 UPDATE: Not really relevant to the species at hand, but I suppose it is worth pointing out that the other body guard is, in fact, named, being Rodrigu Battle, who appeared in a handful of issues earlier in the run. This would actually give me a little extra hope that we’d learn more about the guy in question, if we hadn’t moved so far past it already to the point that it will, in no way, ever be relevant again…

DAY 543: It was pointed out by at least a few that this might also have been intended to be an adaptation of the earlier appearances of a Bothan, as those iteration were much more Human-like and honestly do seem pretty similar to what is seen here. There are still enough differences that I’m not confident in this line of speculation, but I thought it was at least credible enough to note!

DAY 548 UPDATE: It is worth noting that Canon Fosh seemingly come in a variety of appearances so I wouldn’t put it past them to say that this is one of them!
DAY 549 UPDATE: I put out an article on the Pyn’gani a few days before this tweet went live, so feel free to go read that if you want to learn a bit more of the in-universe lore and context that may have surrounded the “Pengauani!”
