the movies

Neimoidians are known for their exceptional organizational and business skills, but Nute Gunray was more cutthroat than most. His unscrupulous nature saw him ascend to the position of Viceroy of the Trade Federation. As the executive officer of the Trade Federation, it was Gunray who led the blockade and subsequent invasion of Naboo. The assurances of Darth Sidious, his shadowy Sith benefactor, led Gunray down this ambitious and blatantly illegal path.

expanded universe

Underhanded schemes such as the acquisition of Dorvalla's lommite ore mines paved Gunray's ascent to the Trade Federation Directorate. His unquestionable avarice and drive drew the attention of Darth Sidious, who recruited Gunray and his associates -- Rune Haako, Daultay Dofine and Hath Monchar -- in a covert Sith plot.

behind the scenes

The Neimoidians were initially designed to resemble the lean, wiry battle droids that they command in The Phantom Menace. The look was based on the assumption that the Neimoidians had created the droids in their own image. A last-minute design change resulted in the more humanoid beings depicted in the final design of the characters. These changes allowed for the characters to be portrayed by live actors, rather than being entirely computer-generated.
