Does anyone else remember the TV show Zoobilee Zoo? The live-action kids show with people sort of dressed as animals, but they just kind of ended up looking like insane serial killers? Maybe I dreamed it. Anyway, this guy always reminded me of something from Zoobilee Zoo more than Star Wars.

That being said, this guy is apparently a Cathar. While Cathars have been very rare in the more mainstream Star Wars media, they’ve made some memorable appearances in some of the old EU sources- notably Knights of the Old Republic (Juhani). Unlike most of the Cantina patrons, Myhr is an original design for the Holiday Special made by the legendary Rick Baker- which probably explains his resemblance to the live action residents of Whoville. That uniqueness would be his primary appeal as an action figure, but probably not enough to justify new tooling.
