    In every book, sullustans are always midgets. comparable to ewoks. But in the film, Numb sits just as high as Lando, and in the action figure, he is about as tall as any other. Where did the authors get this?

    O, and at the end celebration he stands as tall as everyone else, too. The ewoks are about up to his waist or so, just like everyone else.

    Keep in mind that Nien was sitting in Chewbacca's chair, which is much bigger, giving the illusion that he is short.

    A stack of phone books, too, don't forget.

    But what my man Nien lacked in height, he made up for in coolness. I'll hold off praising his cool hat, because there's only freakin' sweat hat in the GFFA, but I always loved Nien's leather hat.

    but at the end of, during the ewok celebration, he stood as tall as Wedge and Lando.

    Me and my brother nickname Nunb- Bob Dylan- cause of the way he mumbles.

    Apparently everyone's forgotten that Nien Nubb drank the ent-draughts years before, leaving him much taller than the average Sullustan.

    I've always noticed that, pretty funny. And that Sullustans in the PT look different then Nien Numb.

    Yeah, duh. You just missed them because they were so short.

    No, really... I don't remember seeing any unless they're in the senate chambers.

    There were only a few, IIRC. In the Outlander Club, perhaps?

    This looks like it could be one of them.

    According to the databank entry for Sullustans on the OS, there were Sullustans in episodes I, II, and VI. Probobly in senate scenes. Maybe one or two walking in the background somewhere.
