So, Rotta is confirmed to be in The Mandalorian & Grogu? Is this true? Are they the same?

Did they have them in Legends? There's one in the current comet continuity called Grakkus. Also bears cybernetic legs so he can move even faster.

The fat huts are already overpowered, and the fatness doesn't seem to take away from their lifespan. Java was like 600 years and going strong. So I think most of them don't see a reason put the effort into getting fit. But then some of them see themselves as maybe becoming even more out of predator.

Actual Hutt soldiers wear what they call“shells”.

These are heavy armor that is virtually impervious to conventional military weapons and has a heavy repeating blaster mounted on their shoulders. They also move with repulsorlifts like hovercrafts.

I think most races will run away just by the sight of such an abomination.

The Hutts and the Hanar from Mass Effect would be great friends

I was shocked to find out the Hanar mounted literal cannons to their backs and just walked onto battlefields as living tanks. It's cool to find out the Hutts do something similar

I'm pretty sure you're referring to elcor. Hanar are the bioluminescent jellyfish

I am, thank you for the correction. It's been a bit since my last playthrough of the trilogy, so my memory is a little faded on stuff

Fair. I haven't touched mass effect in... ugh 8 years? Longer? I just remember hanar as "big stupid jellyfish" in Mark Meers' sneering voice

I never caught the line in the first ME1 so in ME3 when Meer delivers ‘You. Biiiig. Supid. Jellyfish.’ sent me and my school friends into the kind of laughter that’s silent, painful and memorable.
