Star Wars Space Slug

Well, you've gone and done it. You've found us. Based on recent traffic, it looks like we're getting mildly popular. If this is your first time here, you'll notice pretty quickly that we feature a lot of Star Wars vintage action figures around here. I try to be fair in my coverage, but some I like more than others, a good example being Star Wars ships, which I have a  particular weakness for!

Space slugs make their habitats in asteroids, where their tails act like a root system and tie into the asteroid's core. Many space slugs have been found in the Hoth Asteroid Field, some reaching thousands of feet in length.

Space slugs mostly feed by absorbing an asteroid's minerals through their roots. However, smaller space slugs will also devour mynocks (in large space slugs, devoured mynocks are not digested and instead become parasites within the space slug). Large space slugs will also consume starships, and have been known to eat sections of Imperial Star Destroyers that flew too close.
