While they do have a fairly small role in the films, we get to see quite a bit more of them in TCW and Rebels. I don't think I've seen one of these topics before, and even if I have, it has been a while. Plus, they can be fun. So who is your favorite Bounty Hunter, and Why?
Mine is probably Cad Bane.
Reasons:
His voice,
His blasters,
His clothing style.
They all just come together to make a completely different and awesome character.

Embo, because of the crossbow, the hat, and his dog.

I forgot about Embo, but yes, he might just tie with Cad Bane. And Boba is always cool.

Embo was just a straight up bad ass; cold and cunning. It really didn't matter what weapon or tool he used. And even though he did speak, he let his overall skills do his talking.

I know. The first episode you see him in, he takes off after a Weequey (who is on a speeder), and takes him down.  Plus when the Mando's invade, and he holds his own against Savage, that was awesome (at least, if I'm remembering the episode correctly, either way it was awesome). |

But this is a prime example of how sometimes TCW got it right. When my purge happens, Embo will be spared. |

Well even if a lot of the stuff TCW did was meh, they did introduce some cool characters/concepts some of the time. |

I've always been partial to IG-88 after I read about him in the classic Tales of the Bounty Hunters book. They wrote him super overpowered though, kind of like a Terminator with intelligence maxed out. I was thrilled to see assassin droids in the Clone Wars as a kind of homage to IG-88 but they were like puppets in comparison.

“You think you know the depths of corruption that plague the Jedi?” Saso hissed. “I’ve seen it, I’ve experienced it, I even embody it. Every breath I take is an affront to their lofty ideals and idle Force worship… and so they seek to exterminate me.” He looked deep into Barriss Offee’s eyes, “they were not successful in purging me from the galaxy, and neither will you be.” Make Jedi pouches: http://www.saberforum.com/index.php?topic=37304.0Make Jedi food capsules: http://www.saberforum.com/index.php?topic=38006.0 |

Exactly. They did have some good character development. |
