Star Wars Hasbro The Vintage Collection Jabba's Sail Barge The Khetanna

Product Information

Once they had determined the sheer size, there was plenty of room for ingenuity. “You get to the point where it's like, 'Well, what else is behind these panels? What don't we see?'” Evans says. “And then we start using our imagination and, to be honest with you, that's quite a fun bit.” There’s really not a lot I can say about this character. While I love to see yet another obscure character get made, and they did a good job on his head, the rest of him is a little bit… blue (dark azure, technically). I get that the character is totally naked and blue, I would have liked to see a bit of detail on the torso or legs. Bib Fortuna was a Twi'lek male who lived on the desert planet Tatooine. He served as Jabba Desilijic Tiure's majordomo and chief of staff for decades, handling all of the day-to-day operations at Jabba's Palace. By 32 BBY, Fortuna had assumed the position as Jabba's majordomo, and it was he and the Hutt who oversaw that year's Boonta Eve Classic, in which a nine-year-old Anakin Skywalker won the podrace.

Rystáll Sant (singer and dancer, Human-Theelin hybrid (female), Alive (Legends), played by Mercedes Ngoh ), Early glimpses at the 3D modeling for the ship reveal a baby rancor scaling the side of Jabba's lounge wall, an armory, and intricate murals and grisly trophies reminiscent of his other favorite decoration -- Captain Solo in carbonite.

In the end, unlike the RGS model, this is a set that lived up (down?) to my initial impressions. This is far more Jay Fiedler (the QB that replaced Marino, for those paying attention) than Aaron Rogers, and it shows. If anything nice can be said about it, it’s that it makes you want to take the few good elements and go and improve the old Sail Barge, or perhaps try to build and even better MOC between them. Where to Look: 7 minutes, 5 seconds — Bib Fortuna greets C-3PO and R2-D2 upon entering Jabba’s palace. Later in the Imperial Era, Jabba welcomed two new smugglers into his employ, the Corellian human Han Solo and his Wookiee co-pilot Chewbacca. As the Hutt's majordomo, Fortuna often found himself dealing with the pair, handing them assignments from Jabba and delineating their pay. One such assignment [20] between around 8 BBY and 2 BBY [21] was no different, as Fortuna informed Solo that the Hutt lord was willing to pay one million credits for the delivery of a verillix urn that contained the ashes of Krestrel D'Naran, a rival of Jabba. To Solo's dismay, Fortuna also specified that the smugglers would be required to work with Greedo, a Rodian bounty hunter of Jabba's who had been the first to learn of the urn. Reluctantly, the trio agreed to the job and headed for Solo's homeworld of Corellia. [20] Jabba’s Sail Barge was featured in Star Wars Return of the Jedi. The ship dominates a major part of the opening film and is where both Jabba the Hutt and Bobba Fett meet their demise. The scene is also known for its reveal of Luke Skywalker in action with his new lightsaber (green) as well as showcasing many of the unique aliens of the Star Wars films. Designers captured ornate, cinematic details, like Jabba’s microphone, trophy heads, and other sculptures, then took it to a whole new level, imagining other necessities for a crime boss’s floating yacht. “The designers went into this really thinking of functionality and playability,” Dern says. “Our goal in our role here is, how accurate can we get? Whether it is scouring for an old set of blueprints, utilizing archived models, published materials, and/or entertainment footage, all of which helps guide us in our decision making and ultimately to the final result."

Operational shutters in Jabba's Lounge help to minimize distractions and protect from glares of the blazing twin suns of TatooineOf course, there was a reason that LEGO made the choice to go with this style instead of the boat hulls from the old one… Dune Sea Songs of Salt and Moonlight" — From a Certain Point of View: Return of the Jedi (Mentioned only) Since then, we’ve had a whole bunch of crazy varieties, which makes this a bit uninspired. Basically, we get dark tan instead of dark grey (having come into the palette with PoP sets after this set had gone to pasture), and the addition of the wine bottle. Return of The Jedi was initially criticized for their over abundance of aliens due to merchandising potential. With the film’s explosive financial success, Kenner toys produced over 79 action figures for the 1983 film. In addition they released new vehicles like the B Wing and even the very large Imperial Shuttle. They also re-released previously made favorites like the X wing and the Millennium Falcon. We think it's a really compelling platform,” Ninivaggi says. “We're just happy to be a small part of this whole thing.”

Dern, who had the privilege of being the first to receive a final production barge at his office in San Francisco (for final product review purposes) is excited for fans to finally get their hands on their own sail barges soon. But he’s hard pressed to identify his favorite aspect of the finished vehicle. “As a toy designer I appreciate this grand undertaking from a pure design, engineering and manufacturing toy perspective. The amount of deco and level of detail is absolutely incredible on this. It’s a bit of a showstopper. Wait until you see the size of the box this arrives in!” It's definitely a lived-in world... I'm hoping people look at it with a sort of duality of like, 'Wow, that's what it looks like!' But also, 'Yeah, that's what it would look like.'” But the designers are hopeful that the toy and the behind-the-scenes content will be a winning combination to get Jabba's sail barge into production. Sitting next to the old one, it really doesn’t look all that different (other than years of dust marring the clear cups on my old R2). A complete aside… if there was ever a figure that deserved the Chrome treatment, it’s our buddy R2. Seriously LEGO… you want to get people excited for a poromotion? Make a shiny R2-D2. The money from Don alone could buy one of the LEGO owners a new solid gold shark tank. The printed torso shows some promise, but has the little bit of not-quite-right color flesh printing. He’s a nice figure, but I don’t have a lot to say about him, since he was on the screen for a few seconds total.Evans says the team has plans to dive deeper with GoPro cameras and time lapse footage that truly capture the magnitude of the process.”That is a really important aspect of it,” Evans says. “The authenticity. We're a company, but we're actually doing this because it's really cool and really interesting and to share that stuff with fans is really important. The idea of seeing how something is built and the craft behind it. I think fans, it really resonates with them. You get into the kitchen, you get into Jabba's kitchen to see how we cook it all up!”
