Unknown Cantina Alien
Hey there! If there is anyone out there with a hi-res copy of ANH that could help me with this one?
Just as Han as making it out of the Cantina, he passes a table, just right from the entrance, hwere there are two creatures: a Snivvian/Snaggletooth is far right, but who is that guy sitting with him? He has a strange looking hair-do and does this funny little thing with his glass... O just can't make it out who he might be! Help, please!!!

He is a
Nimbanel
, specifically the one noted
here
. As you can see though, there is nothing else known about the character at present.

Thx man! You saved my life!
It was my first guess also, however, I was under the false impression the Nimbanel only appeared in the xterior shots of Mos Eisley... And I can't really find the guy in the Jabba's Palace mentioned in the wookieepedia article? Another mystery... However, I would really like to have a nice shot of those 'top-knot- Nimbanels... A bizarre fashion moment..

Here are the two Nimbanels from the CCG game, if that helps.
Edit: Well, I guess neither of those sites likes me using their images. Just do a Google search for "Mosep" and "Tawss Khaa" to see a couple examples of Nimbanels.

The Nimbanel seen in Jabba's Palace is in this photo:
http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/starwars/nl/images/b/b8/Spijek_Tiel_Wooof_Geezum_Nimbanel.jpg
In the film he/she can be seen behind Chewie and Leia as she tries to bargain with Jabba ("I have come for the bounty on this Wookiee").

Yeah, that's him alright... Isn't it interesting that half of Nimbanel masks seen in the movies have this white hair-dos, but they've chosen to use only the bold ones in later materials?...
