Many fans noticed that these small avian creatures, who reportedly stand just 15 inches tall, are equipped with “razor-sharp teeth” and have been described as “a bird meets a Gremlin,” are quite similar to creatures that have been featured on Star Wars Rebels and Star Wars: The Clone Wars, dubbed “convorees.”
Making Star Wars released the original report of these creatures in December, who were described as a “Star Wars version of a Furby”.
Back in August, Star Wars Rebels executive producer Dave Filoni was asked about these creatures, offering a very interesting response.
These creatures are said to be small birds which resemble the actual puffin birds that can be found on Skellig Michael Island, the Irish island where the Ahch-To scenes were filmed in both Star Wars: The Force Awakens and Star Wars 8.
