The more I stare at it, the more I think it's a Minions parody
I thought that too. Maybe it is. I hope it's just an on set joke.
And I gots no problem with the fuzzy guy Ric posted. Again, his design isn't purposefully silly like the fuzzy minion in a Vader suit. Same goes for the pig guards. They look fake in execution, but fine on paper.
The closest OT comparison I can make is the blue elephant in ROTJ. That thing is stupid.
