I've so far looked into the Phantom Menace and Attack of the Clones to determined which aliens from each of those movies I wanted most in Hasbro's Black Series line of Star Wars action figures, and this time I'm looking into the final movie in the prequel trilogy. Revenge of the Sith is definitely the best received of the prequel trilogy, and is also my personal favorite of the three! However, I noticed that this movie seemingly didn't introduce as many new aliens, and as a result this list was a bit harder to make. The Star Wars universe is vast though and I was still easily able to find five alien characters from the movie to include on this list, and here's the ones I chose!

5. Polis Massan
There isn't a whole lot going on with these alien species in terms of variance from the human form, though many aliens in Star Wars are like that. The main draw for these guys is their heads and what appears to be just a plain white mask with two dots for eyes cut out. Or maybe those are genuinely their faces! Either way, I like the look of these aliens and I want them in the line!

4. Tion Medon
This was the guy who welcomed Obi Wan to Utapau and also informed the Jedi master that Grievous was there. His role was short, but he sure made an impression with his gnarly display of fangs, and the design of his head which made it look like a dozen crevasses ran down his face. The wild collar of his costume would also make for a fun outfit.

3. Mas Amedda
Technically this character was not exclusive to Revenge of the Sith, but I'm including him here because I wanted to mention him at some point and this seemed as good a place as any. I really liked the look of this character and he always seemed like he was in the know about what was really going on as he acted as Palpatine's advisor seemingly seamlessly after Valorum was replaced; perhaps Mas Amedda conspired with Palpatine to dethrone Valorum? The character's design is one I really like as well, with his blue skin and array of long horns.

2. Tarfful
This might be an easier one to do over the others, depending on how much of the Chewbacca mold can be reused to make this character. Tarfful was the Wookie general who aided Yoda on Kashyyyk during the events of Revenge of the Sith, also helping the Jedi master to escape once Order 66 had begun. I would love for more of the Wookie warriors to pop up in the toy line, and Tarfful seems like the perfect place to go after Chewie. His long rifle, and the armor padding across his body would also help differentiate him from the other Wookie in the line.

1. Jedi council members
Again, like Mas Amedda, these aren't character exclusive to Revenge of the Sith but I think that some of their roles were definitely felt a lot more in this movie with the execution of Order 66. The Jedi council definitely got a big focus on this film due to their downfall occurring, and I am so thrilled that we're already starting to get some of the council members in the Black Series this year! Kit Fisto and Plo Koon both look phenomenal, and I can't wait to get other members like Aayla Secura, Ki Adi Mundi, and Shaak Ti! Here's hoping the wait for the next few after the first two isn't too long!
