Bounty Hunter: A.K.A. Every star wars character's last-ditch side job.

There's a crime lord saying in the Star War Galaxy. "For every bounty hunter that can do the job, there are a thousand more who think they can."

It’s so odd seeing an Ithorian, usually a peaceful species, as a bounty hunter.

It's honestly kinda hilarious that when he wanted to kill Greedo, the first guy decides he doesn't wanna do it so hires someone else, and then the second guy decides he doesn't wanna do it, and hires someone else, and the third guy decides he doesn't wanna do it so decides to convince Greedo to commit assisted suicide.

One of them wear really nice hat, I really want to know where he got it from. Too bad Cad Bane killed him before he said where the retailer was.

I read a series of books where the main characters take up bounty hunting out of a lack of any other applicable skills. The interesting thing is that the galaxy, by and large, in that series accepts bounty hunting as a necessary profession, and thus builds rules around it. - If you damage property while taking in a licensed bounty, the damages are billed to the quarry. Unless you fail, then you're stuck with the bill. - Deaths of people who get involved in the event of the bounty taking are legal. Deaths of people who aren't involved is not. - If you are not holding a duly issued bounty for a person, such as grabbing someone you don't have the job for yet, or even losing the warrant, will actually have you responsible for all damages, and the person(s) you captured get to go free. - There were a couple of others, but that's the gist.

Don’t forget Boogoo the dreaded fearless Gungan bounty hunter…”mesa bring yousa in warmly or mesa bring yousa in chilly”

There was another pair of Ithorian brothers from the KOTOR comics that were bounty hunters. I don't think they were that terrible, but their tendency to fight with one another was hilarious.

I love how games and movies portray bounty hunters as cool, take no crap people who go on high risk, high reward missions on a daily basis, meanwhile our world's hunters usually only go after bail jumpers

How about this for a idea. If the separatists won the war, how would they have governed there own government after the clone wars ended? This scenario implying palpatine is dead.

Honorable mention: Mahwi Lihn for blowing herself up while fighting Darth Maul in Darth Maul: Shadow Hunter.

Crazy suicidal rodians. Here's a question i thought of recently: Why didn't the G.A.R. reprogram any of the droid factories? They could use the information against the C.I.S., and bolster the army's ranks.

You're right, Alan, Size does matter. But not in just bounty hunteing. It can help you about digestion as well because the bigger your stomach is, more the space you can have to digest the foods you've eaten.

I have to agree, that wannabe droid bounty hunter tanked like what? 2 blaster bolts? My grandma can tank 3! Altho on the second she begins crawling and also goes blind... Edit: Im talking about Seriphas

Jabba wanted Greedo dead, but he doesn't want to do it himself, so he hires nish to do it, but he doesn't want to do it himself, so he hires spruce warthog, but he doesn't want to do it himself, so he convince him to go after han and have him kill greedo

I like seripas. In the show he refers to his armor as a 'mech'. So robotic human like mechs multiple times the size and strength of there operators do exist in SW..

"Bounty hunting is a complicated profession" holds true in all of these cases. Way in over their heads. The job is half presentation and half actual skill. Too much presentation and not enough skill is always a fatal mistake.

Not only did he defeat and kill Jodo Cast, but he also left him to die! True savagery.

Aura Sing was defeated by a 5 year old girl in Legacy of the Force: Tempest. In canon, apparently she died off screen after being pushed off a building or something like than by that guy from the Solo film.

Bounty hunters are by far some of the coolest star wars characters of all time.

Not sure I’d agree with Moralo Eval. He maybe a narcissistic but he’s still very crafty and experienced. Prior to the box he was Dooku’s only default pick to be on the team tasked with kidnapping Palpatine. Even though he isn’t a top tier fighter his intelligence makes up for it and losing a fight to Obi-wan can’t be considered much of an anti-feat.

High Turnover rates make that Hazard pay & Street Cred much less appealing.

While he was one of the worst, Greedo will always be my favorite bounty hunter from Star Wars

The worst was the guy who thought he could kill the Mandalorian. He could have teamed up with that lady but NO he didn’t.

0:48 - *Toro Calican* 2:44 - *Jodo Cast* 4:01 - *Onca & Bulduga* 5:33 - *Seripas* 6:47 - *Greedo* 8:07 - *Moralo Eval* 9:31 - *Chata Hyokl*

In an unregulated industry its not surprising to see a lot of 2nd rate hacks.

Feel like Jango Fett and Zam Wessel were both pretty incompetent in “Attack of the Clones”. Jango Fett uses an unknown poison dart to assassinate a bounty hunter he hired which allows Obi-Wan to follow him to Kamino and then in the Battle of Geonosis decides to enter in an arena full of fighting Jedi, droids, and rampaging monster which was unnecessary as Dooku and the droid army got control over the situation despite Jango Fett dying.

6:25 Well, let's be fair, Ashoka knows Yoda, and he was one of the few Jedi to die of old age after Order 66. Size isn't everything, and of that Ashoka is right. It's just that Yoda really was good at not being hit by his enemies by using his size to his advantage, as he was strong in the Force and agile.

So glad you mentioned joto khast. The comic book that covers him is so over the top it’s amazing

Seripas is proof that mechs can be built in star wars. And while his unit wasn't the best its possible/likely that tougher models made out of better armor, built in shields and such, could have been done. That being said, and given the abilities of "micornized tech" in star wars... Can picture a "mech" that size, equipped with a heavy beam cannon, energy saber, and bescar type armor. a mini gundam. Then add in repulsers, jets, sealed for space operations... and you'd have a formidable little mech that could likely punch WAY above its weight class, able to take on/take out anything upto and includign AT-At's.

Would it be unfair for me to say Castas from TCW? I ask because he doesn't do any actual fighting in the episodes he's a part of, but at the same time, he's also a coward and not too bright as well. Never really liked him as a character much at all and I'm a little surprised no one mentioned him.

Jodo Kast shouldn't be on this list, he was a good bounty hunter, he just made the mistake of 1) Pretending to be someone who he thought was dead. 2) That person being alive. 3) That person not liking being impersonated. and 4) That person being a better killer than he was. we all make those mistakes. I hope Jodo appears in the Book of Boba Fett, of course he won't live through the experience, but we can't have everything.

Given this video, I think we are owed a "Most Competant Bounty Hunters" video, featuring the likes of Jango and Boba Fett, Dengar, Bossk and Aura Sang

The mighty dolphin empire is now accepting recruits to bring peace and security to the galaxy.

Honestly I thought this video was about the "worst" as in the morally corrupt, but still a great video Alan.

Have yall ever looked into the Battletech Universe? Much Stompy Mech Action, Dakka, and Feudal Spess politics

“He (Boba Fett) Ends up quickly killing and defeating Jodo Cast and leaving him to die”? Only Boba Fett can quickly kill AND defeat someone then leave them to die!…. That’s amazing but then again he did survive all those years in a sarlacc pit which is essentially a GIANT STOMACH full of acid… that Beskar Armour really is something…. Gotta get some for my truck, between the salt on the roads during winter and the pigeons and seagulls making there mark the rest of the year, seems like a wise investment… would probably help when deer stop in the middle of the road at night, speeding up to make sure it doesn’t go through my windshield and skewer me … my truck should come out of it without a dent…

Did a Star Wars tabletop rpg awhile back in high-school were I built a character who was basically the brother of Greedo. The DM liked the idea of a possible revenge story but we never ended up doing it which was fine by me, was just a lazy idea I had cause I wanted to be a bounty hunter when everyone else wanted to be jedi. Ended up with the face of the team helping me become a cyborg with laser mini guns and making me her body guard which I was fine with.

As always an incredible video, love these kinds of videos. Always proffessionally made

I am just glad he did not mention Dengar. I love Dengar.

Greedo was sponsored by those darned dolphins

Growing up it was always so frustrating being told what a badass Boba fett supposedly was, despite not doing anything besides looking cool and falling into a pit…

Hearing you call him "Gogurt" made me snort powerade out my nose.

I would say a semi-useless “Bounty Hunter” (not Star Wars related) is Nack the Weasel from the Sonic series, has a 30-40% success rate, sure he was able to capture Sonic and Sally at some points, but they usually end up getting away either by themselves, or backup from the other Freedom Fighters, he’s is a ineffective hit man cause every time we see him using a rifle he either misses, or is not quick enough to take the shot, he’s also not good at keeping a hold of valuable items like Chaos Emeralds, although I do wonder what his success rate is cause at one point (in addition to his hover bike) he had a ship eerily similar to the Millennium Falcon

“He gotta be the worst bounty hunter ive ever heard of” “But you have heard of me right?”

If I was a Bounty Hunter Ship Type - Hawk 290 Hyperdrive - ienar Fleet Systems SFS-DMS hyperdrive Length - 34 meters Laser Cannons - 4 Arakyd Flex Tube laser cannons Ion Cannon - Merr-Sonn JT-12 jet ion disruptor Shield Generator - Sirplex Z-9 Deflector Shield Generator I would install a much larger frame around 2.5 times larger and convert 3/4s of the hull to living/personal quarters with a shower, bed, droid charging station, a weapons locker, and a small storage space for anything. The rest of the hull would be converted to a holding cell. The cockpit would be modified for easier access from the hull to the cock pit. The wings would be become solid without the notches and with the extra space I would fit all of the new modifications above. My Inventory Armor - Metal phrink armor plating and helmet with attachable breathing tubes (like the Empire's pilot's) for breathing in harsh environments. Clothes - Black cooling padding with a red cloak wrapped around it and the armor over that. Muti-use battle ready combat boots. Blasters - E11D rifle, 2 A-180 Blaster Pistols, and 1 M5 WESTAR Ammo - 5 green energy cells, 7 thermo grenades Melee Weapons - 10in hidden Viroblade Miscellaneous - 2 beacons, gold necklace, and 4 ration meals Droid(s)1 heavy modified Ig 100 magma guard with metal phrink armor plating (note "plating" not completely made of metal phrink. Metal phrink is heavy.) with a 360 degree visor instead of 2 eyes. An extended torso about a 1ft longer and 3 extra smaller arms like the ones that the bounty hunter Migs Mayfield all equipped with a DL-18 Blaster Pistol. It's primary weapon would be a RT-97C Heavy Blaster Rifle with no scope instead a built in targeting system in the CPU and a extend barrel. Also built in multi-use tools like a laser cutter. 2 astromech droids specifically made for manning turrets on starfighters and nothing else.1 protocol droid How I would spend my money -My powerful droid and I would take on dangerous bounty hunting missions and after expenses like repairs to armor, ship, more ammo, food, and guild rates would use the excess money to save up to buy a small luxury 7000 square foot 2 story house with 8 automated turrets around the perimeter of the 10,000 square foot property, with big blaster proof tinted windows, and a ray shield generator. 4 IG assassin droids would also patrol the property. How I would start up -I will give myself 1 E-11 blaster rifle and just a few confrontable clothes. I would use a R-41 Starchaser which is a really cheap ship. I would take my first jobs being really small jobs like bail jumpers, thieves, and other small jobs of the like. I would slowly but surely clime my way up with experience, new skills, and better weapons and armor to take on even more dangerous jobs that pay more and then I could afford even better jobs. An example of this is instead of buying a IG 100 magma guard I could instead buy a B1-Battel droid with a few attachments like a much better processer, better limb movement, and a targeting system. You don't need a lot of money to get far.

In Star Wars: the Old Republic, Smuggler players will meet 3 bounty hunters on Coruscant (one of them significantly worse than the others).

I’m down with a nasty case of covid. Thanks for helping to keep me occupied Alan!

I think Ahsoka pulled the "Size matters not" bit because she was also small.

4:40 I like that gesture of cad bane and embow to each other giving a hat salute XD

I want a TV series where the main character is a bounty hunter that is so bad at his job that he somehow manages to capture all his targets through sheer luck and accidents

It's odd when you realize that Fennec Shand is about 5 years older than Boba Fett.

Love to see Jodo Cast in Book of Boba, would be cool to see that scene where two of them face each other

Sounds like many of the "lower level" bounty hunters are just thugs for hire.

Hold tf up. I've spent years reading as much Star Wars as possible and I'm just learning that Greedo fought Anakin in TFM? Fuck me where did I miss that?

These videos seem to be getting more and more interesting! Goooooooooooooooooooooood!

Seripas is a small mini exoskeleton? What do you consider a regular or a big exoskeleton armor? Ironman’s Hulkbuster? As if that small diminutive ssori didn’t already have a Napoleon complex… I do love that Chata Hyoki was essentially road hauled… not something you’d expect to see in Star Wars

Yeah but Greeto can control time itself. He's like the Bernstein Bears of bounty hunting. He just needed to travel back a few more seconds.

Being a bounty hunter in a state or bordered area on planet earth sounds difficult enough but imagine being a bounty hunter looking for your target across the universe. Lucky there’s Fobs

I don't think Greedo was supposed to be a bounty hunter. His name is a play on Guido, an Italian name, and Italians are usually mobsters (in fiction). So he's just one of Jabba's thugs, who happened to have run into Han on Tatooine. Which begs the question: What was Han doing trying to lie low on Jabba's planet?

Could you do a video on Bounty Hunters who are also Force-wielders? I would imagine that former Jedi/Sith and other Force-wielders would have made for excellent bounty hunters. However, so far, I can only think of three individuals: Asajj Ventress Aura Sing (in Legends) A'sharaad Hett (for a brief period before he became Darth Kyratt) I'm wondering if there are any others that I might have missed. I am also curious about the effects that the Bounty Hunting lifestyle might have on a Force-wielder. My initial analysis: It would offer more flexibility from the strict rules of the Jedi which could prove to make it a better fit for Jedi who are less conventional, however, this could lead them to be more likely to turn to the Dark Side. For a Dark-Sider, it could offer more rules/moral boundaries, since there is a Bounty Hunter code (not that everyone follows it).

3:55 Identity theft is not a joke Jim, millions sofer every year

So Bobba Fett, killed, defeated, and left his imposter to die…in that order?

Man... I didn't know that was greedy in padawan awakening... You learn something new every day ig😂

I knew Toro would be the first haha

"The Box" that Moralo Eval invented is more like the "Cube" series of movies that started in 1997

Depending on the edition, Greedo either got shot first because he was talking too much, or he missed a point blank shot.

Can’t wait to hear this one

The Toro Calican episode of the Mandalorian was my least favorite in the entire series because I really didn't like the character and the actor came across as really smarmy.

This channel is so underrated

Calo Nord was an incompetent bounty hunter because he was not very skilled at sizing up his opponents. He thought he could best anyone even a jedi.

first comment and first view. you're awesome Allen from Generation Tech. think we can get more Legends videos out of you??

Please make a video where the galactic republic with the jedi attack

How have I never seen the episode where the whale guy intimidates padme

"Little Gogurt"

Great video yes I watched the whole video

Where are my Moomo Brothers? They were also an Ithorian team of bounty hunters. ;-)

@GenerationTech-Talk about the all powerful Celestials getting almost genocided by the Rakata

You had me in the first half with that thumbnail ngl

I'm sure there's one or two in Kotor too. BTW someone could tell me the name of the tune beginning around 2:00 ? I find it so good and elating...

Moralo Eval isn’t actually a bounty Hunter by trade, so I don’t think it’s fair to include him on this list. He was never intended to actually help kidnap the chancellor at all, he was just the guy who came up with the plans.

Chata Hyokl: gets slammed into a sign. Nelson Muntz from The Simpsons: HA HA!

Hey Generation Tech I was wondering if you guys are still doing the GAR vs Earth, or did you guys cancel that?

“Squid games for bounty hunters.” I remember when we just referred to it as Cube in Space.

Wait that was greedo as a kid!??!

What about those rodian brothers from Kotor that were killed by Calo Nord? I'm not sure if they were bounty hunters tho, but something tells me they were.

Number 8 Boba Fett - gets beat up almost every episode and needs other people to save him

0:22 Ah yes. Truly a legendary Bounty Hunter the totally real and official Cad Bane.

Just unlucky and unskilled bounty hunters

yo dont insult my boi greedo getting shot by han solo is more than most other bounty hunters accomplished

Can you do another earth vs series please?

8:50 its literally the cube from the movie Cube

the ithorians where did dirty by the new cannon, they have four throats and can make a loud but nonlethal scream, they weren't depicted as being particularly lumbering until the clone wars too

Some bounty hunters are better then others. Great video

The galaxy won't miss them.

Im yelling at the TV , wait ✋ till Anakin finds out

Ethorians can release a blast of sound though

Whoa whoa, what episode is the last bounty hunter from? I’ve seen clone wars a lot and don’t remember that episode. Does anybody know?

wait. what is the best bounty hunters in star wars? i know there is a video on it. but want a updated one. please?

Hey, can you make a video about force ghosts choose to not help the Jedi all the time?
