Bane's height?
Anyone find a source w/ his height? I'm sure we could at least get a shot of him w/ another character to get an estimate. ARC Commander Zek 23:52, 30 March 2009 (UTC)
 * An estimate is not a source. For data to be put in an article it must be explicitly stated. NaruHina  Talk Anakinsolo.png 00:01, 31 March 2009 (UTC)
 * From what I read about his kind on StarWars.com, one of the common heights is 1.7 meters (Which I think 5'7" I believe){CaneBanesLover 21:52, November 3, 2009 (UTC)}
 * Once again, I'm going to ask you to read Talkheader. Talk pages are not the place for speculation.  CC7567  (talk) 23:34, November 3, 2009 (UTC)

Cybernetics
I have a question: is he a cyborg? Maybe we should add this breathing tubes to his infobox? ShaakTi1138 11:57, 6 April 2009 (UTC)
 * I guess so; added. &mdash; CC7567 [ http://images1.wikia.nocookie.net/starwars/images/thumb/5/5f/Rex.png/20px-Rex.png] talk 20:57, 6 April 2009 (UTC)
 * No; the tubes are fake. See this ↗  &mdash;Lucius malfoy7  Nute777.png ( Give it up for Lil' 'Soka Tano, ladies and gents! ) 21:11, 6 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Fake how so? They're mechanical, and they're "imbedded into his cheekbones". &mdash; CC7567 [ http://images1.wikia.nocookie.net/starwars/images/thumb/5/5f/Rex.png/20px-Rex.png] talk 21:14, 6 April 2009 (UTC)
 * I guess the "imbedded into his cheek bones" part does make him a cyborg... I meant fake as in artificial, though.  &mdash;Lucius malfoy7  Nute777.png ( Give it up for Lil' 'Soka Tano, ladies and gents! ) 21:15, 6 April 2009 (UTC)
 * "Artificial" means "not natural" (and manmade); in some cases, that can mean fake, but not in the case of Bane's breathing tubes. &mdash; CC7567 [ http://images1.wikia.nocookie.net/starwars/images/thumb/5/5f/Rex.png/20px-Rex.png] talk 21:18, 6 April 2009 (UTC)
 * It seems my vocabulary is lacking today... Thanks/sorry.  &mdash;Lucius malfoy7  Nute777.png ( Give it up for Lil' 'Soka Tano, ladies and gents! ) 21:21, 6 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Ok, thank you ;). ShaakTi1138 13:24, 7 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Check out the Children of the Force episode!! When he is disguised as a clone trooper in the beginning on the ship, Anakin jumps on the starfighter he's trying to escape in. Anakin knocks off his helmet, and there are NO TUBES!! Also, the more common spelling is "Embedded." Fluberbuton 14:00, October 18, 2009 (UTC)
 * There are tubes. You probably just can't see them. Please watch the episode more carefully.  CC7567  (talk) 18:35, October 18, 2009 (UTC)
 * I have watched the scene in slow motion several times. There are distinct dents or spaces where the tubes normally are. Look at 1:49Fluberbuton 21:22, October 18, 2009 (UTC)
 * Actually, nevermind; I see them missing now.  CC7567  (talk) 21:34, October 18, 2009 (UTC)
 * Screen_shot_2009-10-18_at_5.21.28_PM.png Fluberbuton 21:37, October 18, 2009 (UTC)
 * If you watch the whole scene in slow motion, his tubes are missing the entire time, so this obviously isnt an animation error. It must mean his tubes and armor are removable.
 * The article has already been updated accordingly. Please don't waste your time reiterating the issue.  CC7567  (talk) 02:08, October 26, 2009 (UTC)
 * Someone has restored the article to a previous version. These changes are gone. Fluberbuton 04:01, December 26, 2009 (UTC)
 * Taken word-for-word from the Equipment section: "He had removable[28] cybernetic breathing tubes that were embedded in his cheekbones;[3] they were directly connected to his windpipe,[30] allowing him to work freely in the harshest atmospheres without requiring additional protection.[3]"  CC7567  (talk) 19:18, December 26, 2009 (UTC)

Eyes
Why do his eyes glow? Do all of the eyes of his species do that, or is there some more cybernetics that we don't know about?
 * They don't glow; they're simply red, due to his species.  CC7567  (talk) 18:48, 14 June 2009 (UTC)

they do seem to glow more then the duros in a new hope. just because this is cgi and that wasnt you think?

Cad Bane's P-38 Starfighter
Recently I came accross a Hasbro Titanium Series die-cast model of a P-38 satfighter called the Xanadu Blood. The back of the packaging claimed that it was given to Bane as partial payment for his services to the Separatists (presumably in Season II). The model has a red, black, and gold paint scheme on top of the standard P-38 scheme. Since the only sorce I can find is from Hasbro, should it be added yet, or should we wait for a confirmed appearence in season II? I would post an image of the ship, but I am quite new and inexperienced, so i will provide link to Entertainment Earth's Titanium Series wave 9 image: the Xanadu Blood is in the lower left corner of the image. Sorry for the trouble! http://www.entertainmentearth.com/prodinfo.asp?number=HS35250J

--Rouge 2 01:57, 21 June 2009 (UTC)
 * There's no particular reason to wait till it appears in the series, but the ship itself needs to be verified with proper sourcing (that doesn't include forums). Would it be possible to upload the back of the packaging somewhere so that others can check? (Not necessarily here, but perhaps on an image hoster or somewhere.)  CC7567  (talk) 02:20, 21 June 2009 (UTC)

I would, but I didn't have a thing to copy the packaging back onto at the time I saw it, sorry! I will try to find it on the internetsomewhere though. I know it isn't on Hasbro.com as of this posting, and the Entertainment Earth page lacks cardback info. Once Rebelscum puts it in the photo archive I can get somthing, but that might be a while. I tried to get the high points into my last post. I will work on it! --173.50.1.209 03:00, 21 June 2009 (UTC)

That last comment was mine, apparently I forgot to hit the signature button. Sorry again. --Rouge 2 04:07, 21 June 2009 (UTC

Sith minion?
Hey guys, i was surfing Wookieepedia tonight and I saw Cad Bane's name in the Sith minion category. Seriously, how is Cad Bane a Sith minion?
 * He's not. I've removed that category. -  JMAS  Hey, it's me! 06:52, September 7, 2009 (UTC)

New quote
"I either give or you take. And we tend to take."

- Cad Bane

From the new trailer for Season 2, I think that would be a better main quote then whats already up there. DjMack 18:32, September 23, 2009 (UTC) "Sure, sure. As long as I get paid, it makes no difference to me."
 * It's not confirmed to actually be IU, and I highly doubt it is. I see no reason to change the current quote.  CC7567  (talk) 23:37, September 23, 2009 (UTC)
 * At this point, I personally think that the top quote should be changed to this one:

- Cad Bane, to Darth Sidious

It better defines his overall character role as a bounty hunter. The current one just references his role during a single episode and on one of his many infamous missions. I don't think it gives a proper outlook on his entire character too well.-- Mateo22 Seperatist_leadership.jpg Contact 00:04, April 15, 2010 (UTC)
 * The current lead quote gives a better impression of his imposing personality and does perfectly fine, and plus, it's more notable.  CC7567  (talk) 01:46, April 15, 2010 (UTC)

Bounty hunter status
Can it really be said that he is the best and deadliest bounty hunter? Alright, he is up there on the list with Jango, Boba etc., but that statement is really just an opinion. Besides, I'm sure either of the former two could compete with him with little trouble. They are about even IMO. --Mateo22 20:26, September 28, 2009 (UTC)

perhaps it should say the best and deadliest bounty hunter of his time? And, im wondering: is he even a bounty hunter? we haven't seen him capture anybody- to me hes more of a hired terrorist. "The greatest hunter since Jango lost his head is now taking interviews! It's an honor, sir, to be considered for your posse."
 * You would be wrong. -  JMAS  Hey, it's me! 00:42, October 2, 2009 (UTC)

- Davtokk


 * Oh yeah, forgot about that line. The image caption has been tweaked.  CC7567  (talk) 04:07, October 2, 2009 (UTC)
 * Very well, greatest of his time works. And his official title is bounty hunter, but I don't think it would be too unorthodox to say in the article that he could somewhat be called a terrorist, since he got paid to do things other than just killing targets. --Mateo22 23:50, October 3, 2009 (UTC)
 * Whatever other names you try to slap on him, he's still working for the highest bidder. That does not mean that he is purposefully a terrorist.  CC7567  (talk) 23:56, October 3, 2009 (UTC)
 * I agree. To call him a terrorist is way off base. Anyway, "killing targets" is not what a bounty hunter does. A bounty hunter is, traditionally, hired to find and obtain people or objects (ex. Ziro the Hutt, the Jedi holocron). Discussion and speculation aside, he's a bounty hunter (ie. "Rise of the Bounty Hunters).--Demos Traxen 05:03, October 4, 2009 (UTC)

Hutts?
I know that the Databank says that he was hired by the Hutts to break Ziro out, but are we sure that isn't a mistake? Altogether, it doesn't really make a whole lot of sense: Jabba is perhaps the most powerful Hutt in the galaxy, and Ziro conspired to kidnap his son and take over the clan. You think he's going to let the clan break the same guy out of prison?
 * Until another source changes that, that's what we have to go off of. Furthermore, it wasn't specifically clarified that it was Jabba that hired Bane; it only said "Hutts", which could very well mean Ziro's allies&mdash;if he has any. The current wording in the article is purposefully unspecific to avoid speculation.  CC7567  (talk) 22:50, October 3, 2009 (UTC)

Quote
I recently got Star Wars: The Clone Wars: Republic Heroes for my Wii, and there's a pretty good quote Bane says twice at the end of the game. "No one messes with Cad Bane." Perhaps you could consider updating his main quote with this instead of, "I'm in control. I make the rules now." 65.34.3.78 18:39, October 9, 2009 (UTC)
 * Both are self-centered and bold. The current one is more specific.  CC7567  (talk) 20:33, October 9, 2009 (UTC)

Fourth Infant
I know he kidnapped Zinn Toa and Wee Dunn and failed to capture Roo Roo Page, but he was ordered to kidnap four but I don't recall if he said the name, species, or planet of the fourth. Did he, and if so who, what and where? Cad Bane Owns 19:32, October 10, 2009 (UTC) User: Cad Bane Owns 3:33 Oct 10 2009
 * He did not.  CC7567  (talk) 19:34, October 10, 2009 (UTC)

Cad Bane's armor?
My brother brought home something he got from a lunchable (or something along those lines) that said that Cad Bane's armor is specially made to counteract the force. Is there any claim to this anywhere else? --DSandrius 03:07, October 13, 2009 (UTC)
 * Not anything official at the moment, no.  CC7567  (talk) 03:12, October 13, 2009 (UTC)
 * im sure i read it also, maby in the databank?
 * Check it yourself.  CC7567  (talk) 05:15, October 14, 2009 (UTC)
 * What if said thing were scanned and uploaded to this converstion? --DSandrius 08:07, October 14, 2009 (UTC)
 * That depends what said thing is.  CC7567  (talk) 08:27, October 14, 2009 (UTC)
 * It's the thing that my brother brought home that talks about Cad Bane's armor. I was just wondering if I'd be allowed to post it up in here.  --DSandrius 08:44, October 14, 2009 (UTC)
 * Actually, that information is in the navbox for Cargo of Doom dataclip on the Cartoon Netwok website. QuiGonJinn  Senate seal.svg(Talk) 14:14, October 18, 2009 (UTC)
 * I'll add it in, then.  CC7567  (talk) 18:35, October 18, 2009 (UTC)
 * Another source for that is Star Wars: The Clone Wars Season 1 DVD. There's a feature next to the episodes that on the final disk, at the last episode, a person did say that his armor as for combating Force users. Like the tubes, thy're for prevention of getting Force Choked. --Uasp Erbomee

Affiliations
Highest bidder, I think for a bounty hunter that is self explanatory. I think we can leave it at Cad Bane's Posse but that's just me. What do you think? T-888
 * As a bounty hunter, his affiliation can change every day. Highest bidder is the easiest way of saying this, if you ask me.  --DSandrius 01:24, October 15, 2009 (UTC)
 * I am sorry but I think it sounds too corny but that might just be me. By the way he has worked for Ziro the Hutt hasn't he? T-888
 * Some advice: don't whine about stuff sounding corny here, as it won't get you anywhere. Second piece of advice: read the article yourself to answer your own question.  CC7567  (talk) 01:31, October 15, 2009 (UTC)
 * Well I'm sorry, I do watch the Clone Wars and think that everything should be accounted for, well I guess what we have is okay. — T-888 [Comlink] 01:30, October 15, 2009
 * No reason to get defensive. We all love Star Wars just as much as the next fellow/gal.  Let's just keep this thread free of negativity (if I'm making any sense) --DSandrius 06:22, October 15, 2009 (UTC)
 * I think that we should add Confederacy and Hutts, personally. In the episode they specifically say that he is working with the Separatists and I can guess that will continue. Hntr.peters 23:16, October 20, 2009 (UTC)
 * Quite plainly, that is a connection that was never elaborated on. Discussions have already been held here for why the affiliations remain the way they are now.  CC7567  (talk) 23:48, October 20, 2009 (UTC)

How he Became a Bounty Hunter
Does anyone ever wonder how he chose his path to be bounty hunter? I think he should have a back story or something. Like maybe he became one due to a traumatic thing in past that convinced him it was the best thing to do, family business, or something. {CaneBanesLover 21:21, November 3, 2009 (UTC)}
 * Sure thing. All you need to do is write up a story, submit it to LucasBooks for approval by Lucas Licensing, then have it be published. Let us know when you get all that done. -  JMAS  Jolly Trooper.png Hey, it's me! 17:10, November 3, 2009 (UTC)
 * And once you've done that, please read and mind the Talkheader tag at the top of this page.  CC7567  (talk) 19:49, November 3, 2009 (UTC)
 * I'm sorry if the idea was lame. :( I just have a bit of a curious nature and even if I wanted to write a back story, I don't think I would be good at it...{CaneBanesLover 21:21, November 3, 2009 (UTC)}
 * I would seriously read Talkheader again and then take your discussions to an actual forum, since Wookieepedia is not one.  CC7567  (talk) 21:45, November 3, 2009 (UTC)

Placement of republic heroes
The | Databank entry for Bane says that Sidious began relying on him after he proved his worth during the hostage crisis, and at the time he was a new threat to Sidious. DjMack 19:43, February 1, 2010 (UTC)
 * That doesn't affect Republic Heroes in any way. The DB entry still gives no indication as to what the placement of events is.  CC7567  (talk) 19:54, February 1, 2010 (UTC)
 * It doesn't give the exact placement of the game, but from what I've read in this article, Sidious was Bane's employer in the game, which would mean that it could take place any time after the hostage crisis, and we have the events of the game as taking place before the hostage crisis in the article. DjMack 22:40, February 4, 2010 (UTC)
 * "Bane also plays an supporting role in the forthcoming video game, Star Wars The Clone Wars: Republic Heroes (2009, LucasArts)." In no way does that even come close to identifying his employer, if he even had one. Also, it has never been directly clarified as to who his employer for rescuing Ziro was&mdash;only the Hutts, if any, so using "Hostage Crisis" as a point of reference is basically useless.  CC7567  (talk) 00:26, February 5, 2010 (UTC)

The article about the game says it takes place between seasons 1 and 2, therefore, the section on the events of the game should be placed in between the Hostage crisis and Sidious hiring Bane to steal the Holocron. I tried doing it myself, but it prevented me from doing so, so someone else please do it for me. And what does Bane's employer for rescuing Ziro have to do with ANYTHING!--DinoTyrannus 19:58, March 6, 2010 (UTC)
 * Just because you don't care for something doesn't mean that it isn't important. Regardless, the sections have been moved to conform to the screwy timeline.  CC7567  (talk) 22:39, March 6, 2010 (UTC)

Wrong Place!
The Theft from Kul Teska section is supposed to before the Senate hostage crisis! If I remember right, The Battle of Belphour begun before Bane's attack on the Senate!
 * See the above discussion.  CC7567  (talk) 17:21, March 8, 2010 (UTC)

Stupid picture
First Ahsoka, now Bane! Guys, can you please stop putting these pictures on these articles? Bane looks like a old man!

Jedi Alliance
In the game Jedi Alliance there is concept art for Cad Bane. Should this be mentioned since the game came out after the movie? Tetsu Aero 14:50, July 26, 2010 (UTC)
 * That depends on where it is. Is it in the databank or something? It's been a while since I looked at it, but I haven't come across it as of yet.  CC7567  (talk) 04:17, July 27, 2010 (UTC)
