the Kaminoans accepted the order for high-quality soldiers based on Jango Fett from their client, and interpreted this to mean 'genetically engineer supersoliders who look like this one human man (whose appearance is largely differentiated from other humans in colors outside of their species' visible color range' and just ran with it

this resulted in some Very Strange Beings, who look human (at least while they have their armor on) but are Very Much Not Human if you attempt any sort of medical imaging

some examples:

they have multiple redundant hearts

their brains are Not inside their heads (the classic shapeshifter protective gambit)

they can supplement their diet by doing photosynthesis

they Do Not have reproductive systems, at all (they are basically Ken Dolls under their small clothes)

their hair does not actually grow, and if you cut or dye it, that's just what it looks like forever now

the Kaminoans thought that the scars on Jango's face were markings, so all facial scars on clones are technically like birthmarks (this is why we never get an explanation for Cody's scar)

the clones figured out pretty quickly that they are not quite like the humans among the trainers, and also eventually intuit that they were not intended to be designed this way by the clients, so they keep this pretty quiet among themselves

later, the Jedi (particularly the humans and healers) pick up on some of this Offness among the clones, but choose to not pry

however, this engineering comes with the side effect of the Sith control chips being planted inside the clones' skulls, per the Sith's explicit instructions, but this does not result in the chip being placed in their brains, but rather next to an accessory heart; this makes them completely ineffective at controlling the clones' behavior, and averts Order 66

Mandalorian Bounty Hunter Jango Fett & The Clones

Wanted to post this to show that during his origin story in the classic 2002 video game Star Wars Bounty Hunter, Jango Fett did indeed care about the Clones. Jango said he was "proud" of them; he even let this be known to his son Boba Fett.

(Unlike the in-universe narrative claiming Jango cared nothing about the Clones & the only Clone Jango ever cared about was Boba.)

In the following Cutscene Storyboards from Star Wars Bounty Hunter, Mandalorian Bounty Hunter (And Prime Clone Template) Jango Fett said his Clones were a damn fine Army, ready for battle. When Jango discussed this with Boba, Jango told him: "You shouldn't feel sorry for them. I don't. I feel…Proud."

And I❤️this from @fox-trot talking about Jango Fett & his concerns with the lives & treatment of the Clones….

Jango Fett consistently fought the Kaminoans over reconditioning/ decommissioning. In the early days he managed to convince the Kaminoans to change the expected standard, allowing for more leniency regarding deviations in physical appearance, speech patterns, behavior, temperament, etc. This saved many lives. He also regularly stepped in & rescued clones scheduled to be reconditioned for ‘aberrant’ behavior or mental health concerns. The Null ARCs & Delta Squad were saved from death because of his intervention. He also had a secret operation where he smuggled at-risk clones off of Kamino.

“First Sight”

1st Pride Month piece.

I think it would be poetic for the clone that noticed Obi Wan on the catwalk during Attack of the Clones to soon become his commander.

Obi-wan, staring at Cody: I could fix him The Kaminoans: Please don't it took a lot of work to fuck him up this bad
