Apparently no one knows what Yoda's race is

I thought he went to dagobah because it was out of the way or strong in the dark side of the force I remember from somewhere. But don't quote me on that.

When I was a kid I thought he was human.

I bet humans would look pretty similar to Yoda when they're 900.

I actually still kind of think this.

900? Thats too much.
With 70+ years you can already look like him:

That, or it really means Jordi Pujol is 900 years old :O

I'm sure I am wrong about him being the last of his kind. But he could've picked any planet to spend the last of his days on in exile, and he chose one that is entirely swampland. Which would make you think that it would be in his natural instinct to be drawn too such humid climates. Which could make him kinda amphibious.

He probably is, yeah. Dagobah's such an armpit of a planet though that it really is the best place for one of the most important Jedi in the galaxy to hide. Out of all the millions of planets and moons out there, a swamp world with no intelligent life would seem like the last planet to find such a person, considering all the places he could have gone and been helped to hide in by people such as Bail Organa.

That or Yoda is an alien who ages differently :P
 
Apparently, one of the spin-off ideas Disney is juggling is a Yoda origin story. Wether this is just how he became a Jedi/Master or a full dive into his species is another question, however...

Nah, he went to Dagobah because it was the only planet in the system with a Darth Vader clone to do battles with.
 
He's a Whill.

His species is called that.

It was going to be canon once but then George changed his mind as usual and then decided NO ONE COULD KNOW.

For reasons.

Personally I've been a believer that with him being such a fan of short people, he might have had a fetish and thought Yoda was a supreme enlightened human 900 years old and what he wished to be like.

Also I should mention he was probably high when he dreamt of such things.

I swear some group cloned maul but now that he's not dead it doesn't count. Dark side tree cave was just kinda there with little background to it.

Coincidently, I was flicking through channels on the tv yesterday and caught the end of episode 3. My 7 year old was sat with me and she asked "Dad, what IS Yoda?" To which I replied "Well he's....erm.....he's a.....Actually, I have no idea"

True story.

"He's a badass motherfucker" is what you should have said.
 
NERDS!



Admittedly, I never paid attention to SW movies and their lore, but its surprising to hear they have never mentioned his race.
 
aparently EA is working on getting his race into SWTOR. I dont know how since they dont even know the name of it

I would not be surprised if Lucas gave Disney a laundry list of shit they could and could not do.

Lucas is only serving as an advisor. He does not have any say on what can or cannot be done as he sold the IP outright. So if Disney wants to do Star Wars vs. Predator or have Darth Vader fight the Avengers Lucas can't stop them.
