Star Wars also has a lot of weird aliens. Most of the weirder ones are on Tatooine in Episodes I and IV.

Space Dragons from Star Wars.

Namekians from Dragon Ball Z (evolved from slugs, only need water to survive, really strange language, and can regenerate as long as the head is undamaged)

Protoss from Starcraft.

Space Dragons?

I'm assuming those are that worm-like creature that lived in the asteroid in ESB?

No. Space Dragons are sentient, a few are even Jedi. Dimoguan.

They are about 15-100 meters long and waged a war against the Old Republic 15,000 years ago in the movies.

Where were they mentioned? I've never heard of them before, and Wookieepedia doesn't appear to have anything on them.

It's a parody of sci-fi to some degree, but the aliens in Star Control are some of the strangest, most original aliens in any sci-fi. :D

New Essential Guide to Aliens. They should be on Wookiepedia. Dimougan or however you spell them.

They are. Go to timeline of wars and its there. Way I found out about them. They helped established the Coruscant University if you want to do a search for that to get to them.

Thank you. I'll make it a point to check out one of those books.

Either Queen of the Empire or Galaxy in Fear.
