  • Interesting. Admiral J. Nebulax (talk) 00:48, 24 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Nice.TIEPilot051999 00:51, 24 February 2006 (UTC)
  • I wonder if this will be colored in, as it would be a great addition to the article. Admiral J. Nebulax (talk) 00:52, 24 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Well, seeing as how all of the illustrations in the New Essential Guides are colored, all we got to do is wait till October.TIEPilot051999 01:16, 24 February 2006 (UTC)
  • That's good. Admiral J. Nebulax (talk) 02:01, 24 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Abel Pena hinted that that may be Grievous' great-grandmother.--Rune Haako 22:07, 24 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Wow, we don't know his parents, but we might know his great-grandmother. Admiral J. Nebulax (talk) 22:08, 24 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Dude. No need to be sarcastic...TIEPilot051999 06:24, 27 February 2006 (UTC)
  • What? All I said was that we might know his great-grandmother, because Abel Pena hinted at it. Admiral J. Nebulax (talk) 20:35, 27 February 2006 (UTC)
  • He's NOT being sarcastic, he just said that it might be his great grandma
  • I DONT like this picture
  • Actually, I disagree

  • 20060223_1_bg is a stornge name for a pictor
  • Too bad. Just because you don't like it doesn't mean it can't go into the article once it's colored. Admiral J. Nebulax (talk) 17:52, 8 April 2006 (UTC)
  • Sorry, but i DO like this picture.

--62.254.64.16 16:39, 11 May 2006 (UTC)62.254.64.16

  • That's Grievous' great-grandmother? Shouldn't she be a little more... feminine? I mean, I know the Kaleesh are reptilian, but the only female we've seen at least had long hair and breasts and was wearing a dress, all qualities that the Kaleesh in that picture appears to lack. --Thetoastman 17:05, 18 June 2006 (UTC)
  • Actually that image looks like a warrior. It might not even be female. Kalas Grengar 05:38, 2 August 2006 (UTC)

i think their scary.

[edit] Eggs?

  • I wonder if Kaleesh lay eggs?--Rune Haako 22:51, 31 March 2006 (UTC)
  • Why? Admiral J. Nebulax (talk) 00:37, 1 April 2006 (UTC)
  • I was just wondering cause Huks eat eggs. I guess we may find out in the New Essential Guide to Aliens.--Rune Haako 06:21, 1 April 2006 (UTC)
  • Oh. Thanks for clearing that up. Admiral J. Nebulax (talk) 18:40, 1 April 2006 (UTC)
  • I actually DO think that the question 'I wonder if kaleesh lay eggs' is a good question
  • Well, we should find out sooner or later. Admiral J. Nebulax (talk) 17:52, 8 April 2006 (UTC)
  • DO huks eat eggs.
  • Oh. Thanks for clearing that up. I've never heard such NONSENCE! It's far from cleared up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Well, Kaleesh are described as humanoid reptilians, and reptilian is described as "reproduce by laying fertilized eggs". So i guess they do lay eggs.Major Wolf 15:58, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
Untrue. Egg-laying is a common feature but not all reptiles lay eggs. There are many kinds of skinks and snakes which give birth to live young just like mammals do, so there's a 50/50 chance either way. Given the overall humanoid build I'd be tempted to assume live birth. Ghosthande 05:28, 9 June 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Names

  • There's 1 thing we DONT know about kaleesh, & it's there names. Yes, there names. I mean, we do know general greivous, but grevous who who?? Also what about the other kaleesh that we don't even know there 1st name. So there's a lot more to names than it seems.

[edit] Appearances / Sources

Should we list all of the appearances for Grievous in this article? Is there any way that species pages could automatically collect the appearances of all their members? Astro 22:16, 6 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] NEGTAS

Hey, though I don't yet have this book I heard there was a slight description of the Falleen without a mask, albeit not a picture or anything. I wonder if someone could maybe update it with any new information in the book (especially regarding their appearance). Thanks --Sauron18 23:44, 5 November 2006 (UTC)

  • It just describes the eyes and tusks, which are left exposed. Other than that, it just says they are an attractive species like the Faleen. What is "attractive" in the Star Wars Galaxy?--Lord OblivionSith holocron 15:13, 9 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Faces???

What do their faces look like? All the kaleesh ive seen wear masks.Thanks, Grand Admiral Nick Vos [Holonet]

  • Take a look at this. I think their true appearance will be revealed through an action figure. An unmasked Grievous is on the bottom row, second from the right:

[edit] Height

I don't recall there being an official source stating the Kaleesh were usually 2 meters tall. --65.116.143.83 01:07, 17 March 2007 (UTC)

"Star Wars: The New Essential Guide to Alien Species" book, the newest addition, states the average height of Kaleesh is 1.8 meters.Major Wolf 12:50, 8 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Stance

None of the art here shows a Kaleesh with legs bent back at the knees or more correctly digitigrade stance,we need to either alter the description or make reference to Grievous' cyborg form having this leg "configuration". Sochwa 23:22, 29 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Behind the Scenes

The background of this species (especially their relationship with the Republic)is highly reminiscent of early US/Taliban relations when the US was helping them run Russia out of Afghanistan (especially the "special forces (Jedi)" arming/training the "Taliban (small Kaleesh force)". I wonder if that's intentional.140.185.215.113 14:15, 17 June 2008 (UTC)Steve

  • Well, you're right. Confirmation is here. ShaakTi1138 11:17, September 26, 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Appearance/TCW CG

Firstly: Sorry for my English. Secondly: Have you noticed that Grievous statue in the "Lair of General Grievous" has got different face than this Hasbro action figure? It also has got digitigrade stance. But in TCW CG and in Legacy 31: Vector, Part 12 we can see this "old" version of Kaleesh. So, what do you think about it? I really don't know which version is canonical. ShaakTi1138 07:36, 28 January 2009 (UTC)

  • Ok, so let's do it in a different way...
Kaleesh that appears in The Clone Wars Campaign Guide
New look in The Clone Wars

So, any ideas? I have a question: was that Hasbro action figure accept by Lucasfilm? I mean, it's appearance. You can read about that here And sorry for mess with this pictures.ShaakTi1138 07:15, 24 April 2009 (UTC)

  • There isn't any difference between these two pictures. The only difference is that the picture of Grievous on the left is wearing a cowl and so his ears are obscured. Also, the statues of Kaleesh in Grievous' castle are of post-cyborg Grievous, so the different stance is because of his cyborg state, not because it's a different depiction of a Kaleesh. Also, don't forget that Grievous wears a mask. The pictures from the campaign guide, etc. are without the mask, so of course they look a little different. Pundit 08:29, 24 April 2009 (UTC)
    • No, there IS difference. Look at the nose and tusks. And the first statue in his castle is his pre-cyborg version, not post. But I don't want to argue. ShaakTi1138 09:23, 24 April 2009 (UTC)
      • I'm not sure what you're referring to, but if you're talking about this image, then it is definitely Grievous post-Cyborg. You can see his metal parts. Also, I don't really see any difference between the face on this guy, which is modeled after the TCW image, and the image from the campaign guide/action figure. They both have tusks hanging off of the bottom. They both have the weird little teeth jaws, and they both have the flat open nostril nose. What features are different exactly? Even if that doesn't work for you, Grievous' face may just be a little different compared to mainstream Kaleesh. Pundit 10:06, 24 April 2009 (UTC)
        • Ok, ok... I give up. And I was talking about the first statue that appears in this episode, I don't have any image... But ok, that's enough. We have to wait for more sources. ShaakTi1138 13:11, 25 April 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Kaleesh in the Droidfest

We were talking about this picture here and personally I think that this may be new Kaleesh. Maybe we should mention it in "Behind the scenes" section or something like that? What do you think about it?ShaakTi1138 07:37, 24 April 2009 (UTC)
Kaleesh?

I'm thinking if he is a Kaleesh then it would be a retcon, seeing as this character appears before Kaleesh were written into the Star Wars universe with General Grievous. Dark Ridley 19:34, 25 April 2009 (UTC)
