Tatooine, and since everyone naturally trust/prefer people that are related to them: the Genetically European looking race. Human is a species.

For some reason I've always liked the Arconas, and I like Trandoshans and Jawas.

The Vuvrian has a fantastically inspired design. You can tell they didn't simply create a giant papier-mâché blob and shove eyes in it.
(this is the guy Luke sold his landspeeder to. Can you imagine it driving that thing?)

I think that may be the wackiest alien I've ever seen. They definitely did a fantastic job at making it seem evolutionary plausible. Is it very noticeable in the movie? I never noticed it.
I think they were going to have a giant praying mantis in the bar, or did they actually have it in the movie?
