This is most likely an in-game urban legend. A rumor, much like the meatlump cave. Perhaps an effort to influence the devs to inplament a new weapon drop.
Ladies and gentlemen, I give you Captain Conspiracy Theorist.
Uh I doubt anyone is trying to get them to 'implement' a new loot drop.
3 words: Meatlump King & Cave
Yeah? And?
Sorry, thought it was self explanitory.
An urban legend started a long time ago about a meatlump cave somewhere on Rori, at thebottom of which is theMeatlump Cave. The King was supposed to be very tough and drop insanely good loot. This caused no end of people looking for this cave. Many people were tricked, mostly noobs.
A couple patches ago (21 or 22), a new meatlump quest was implamented, after finishing all current stages, you end up with a reporters rough draft of an article, in which is mentioned the Meatlump King, as well as your name (since you helped her in her investigation).
Current speculation is that later patches (or expansions) may activate further stages of this quest line.
Edit: in case you need more. The meatlump scenario described above is the first instance of forum based in-game content. I was merely making an off-hand comment that someone may be trying to get new items implamented as loot simply by starting forum rumors.
Also, after several hours of killing Donkuwahs and Ewoks, I have also not looted this weapon, and have heard of no one else ever doing so as well.

I seriously doubt it
"We wont believe it until he gives each of us one!"
Its just a rare pre-cuweapondrop.
A weapon category will not be displayed on the vendor or bazaar search unless at least one of those weapons has been put up for sale or auction on a bazaar terminal or searchable vendor within the last 2 weeks. So the fact that 5 galxies don't list that weapon, merely means that no one has sold, or tried to sell one in the last 2 weeks.
I know that there is no category for Wookiee Toothpicks OR 2 Handed Sith Swords on the vendor search in Tempes, though I know people with both, have seen both, and have almost completed the quest for the sith sword, and know where to get the toothpick. People simply aren't going to sell weapons that rare, so you don't see them on the bazaar. The same case was true with NK executor swords until I got my second one.
no offense, but what is true for tempest might not be true for bria or ahazi. additionally, most of these rare things do have a category in the bazaar because of people using their vendors for storage.
i've killed countless donkuwahs pre-cu. all they dropped was donkuwah poison and donkuwah knives.

Excellent, somehting else to get.
Now, is there any chance of narrowing down the targets? I have killed Donkuwahs around the DWB, as other have said they did. But Donkuwahs are Duloks, not Ewoks. What species, currently, is confirmed to drop them?
