There’s also the question of whether it would even include Jabba: by the time Boba seizes control of the palace, the Hutt is long gone. That would really depend on whether the set is based on Return of the Jedi or The Book of Boba Fett, although it’s difficult to imagine the LEGO Group choosing to release a set named Jabba’s Palace (if that’s what it ends up being) without Jabba himself. Includes 9 minifigures: Jabba, Salacious Crumb, Bib Fortuna, Gamorrean Guard, Oola, Han Solo, Princess Leia in Boushh outfit, Chewbacca and B'omarr Monk

You're starting outside Jabba's Palace. Going up to the gate will release two TT-8L's who will open fire on you, so blast them repeatedly. Assemble the platform in front of the gate and hop up to expose the third one. Once all three are blown, the gate will open. As you enter, you'll be set upon by Gamorreans. They keep popping out of the holes in the ceiling until you pull the levers to shut them. Once both are closed, you can explore more freely. The door at the far end will only open for bounty hunters. Happily, you can provide such credentials, soon. Head to the left and you'll find a helmet dispenser. Not only will this give Leia the Boushh helmet and allow her to use green circles, it will also allow her to throw thermal detonators by pressing Z. That'll be quite useful. When something can be blown by a thermal detonator, you'll know because it'll be a shiny gray and your shots will rebound off it. Anyway, use the green circle and move on up the stairs. At the top, the door will open, and hey! It's Luke! Close the two hatches to stop the Gamorrean flow, then assemble the Bounty Hunter Panel. Have anyone wearing a Boushh helmet use it, then move on through the door. Droid Rescue This set includes ten minifigures, of which eight are new figures. The three old minifigs are the old Chewbacca from 1999 and the B'omarr Monk which was included with the original Jabba's Palace set in 2003. Han Solo (Carbonite) and the B'omarr Monk come without accessories and Chewbacca includes handcuffs. This set also includes a new Han Solo, which is based on the Han Solo figure that was included with the 8097 Slave I set in 2010 but with a redesigned headpiece. The Gamorrean Guard is completely new and includes a vibro axe. It is also included in the set 75005 Rancor Pit released in 2013. Oola is also an all-new figure, and features a double-sided head. The Princess Leia (Boushh) is completely new, too, and includes a helmet, a thermal detonator and a staff. Under the helmet is Princess Leia's face, which is double sided. A Princess Leia hairpiece for additional portrayal is also included. Bib Fortuna is also a new minifigure. It includes a cloak and a headpiece meant to show his head tails, which is identical to the original Bib Fortuna's headpiece from 2003. The face and the torso are redesigned and the figure's skin colour is darker than the original Bib Fortuna's skin colour from 2003.I have never seen a more sinister and depraved crowd. One would think the rest of the galaxy safe, what with every thug, debaucher, and scofflaw having gathered here." ―C-3PO, to R2-D2, commenting on the inhabitants of Jabba's palace [2]

Several years after Jabba's demise, Luke Skywalker and Han Solo returned to the empty palace to locate vital records pertaining to a newly developed Hutt superweapon called the Darksaber. Disguised as Tuskens, the two destroyed the sentry guard, got the great door open, and entered the domain of the B'omarr monks. Most of the complex had been looted during the mass exodus of Jabba's court, but many secrets remained. Consorting with a monk named Maizor, the duo learned of the Hutt's plans and used spare parts in the abandoned motor pool to return to Anchorhead. [12] One year later, Jabba's empire was restored by his father and then nephew. However, Jabba's Palace remained abandoned to the monks, and the palace of Gorga the Hutt became the new headquarters of the criminal empire. If a new version of Jabba’s Palace does hit shelves in 2022 – 10 years on from that controversy, which made national newspaper headlines in the UK and around the world –the LEGO Group may choose to avoid an accurate depiction of the set as we saw it in 2012, and perhaps focus more closely on the interior, as per 2003’s 4480 Jabba’s Palace.In a statement to the Austrian Times (h/t Huff Post), the Turkish Cultural Community of Austria demanded an apology from the LEGO Group, claiming: “It is apparent that, for the figure of the repulsive bad guy Jabba and the whole scenery, racial prejudices and hidden suggestions against Orientals and Asians were used as deceitful and criminal personalities.” Anthony Daniels: Remembering That Galaxy Far, Far Away" — The Lucasfilm Fan Club Magazine 1 (Picture only) It wasn't until 516 BBY that the Hutt named Jabba Desilijic Tiure discovered the citadel and ousted Alkhara and seized the monastery. Like Alkhara and his predecessors, Jabba maintained a good relationship with the monks, adding on to their monastery and generally avoiding the strange religious people. Along with plating the exterior walls with ditanium, Jabba built an expansive hangar and garage for his fleet of ships and swoops. Erecting a throne room in the subterranean bowels of the citadel, the Hutt transformed the complex into a palace. [1]

The largest alcove in the room, hosting the stairs to the Dancers' Pit, band lounge, and the massive private elevator that ferried Jabba up to his private chambers, was also home to a wall of trophies collected by the Hutt. Amongst these items were the taxidermied heads of a jerba and tauntaun and, for a short time, the carbonite-encased form of the smuggler Han Solo. [13] It's not so unusual for folks to take umbrage at "Star Wars" and its characters: Over the years, the fictional universe has weathered claims of anti-Semitism and anti-Japanese sentiment as well as complaints about racial stereotyping by Jar Jar Binks. Do you think the latest protest by the Austrian Turks has a valid point, or is this controversy as silly as Jar Jar's accent? Feel free to weigh in with your comments below.

What does Jabba's palace have to do with the Turks? In an annotated set of pictures, the center drew a parallel between the dome of Jabba's house and the dome of the Hagia Sophia, a 1,500-year-old monument that has served as a church and a mosque but is now used as a cultural museum. The tower rising beside Jabba's palace? To the Austrian Turks, that looks like a Muslim minaret. The Turkish Cultural Community in Austria put together a detailed comparison of the Turkischegemeinde.at The centuries-old Hagia Sofia is one of Turkey's most famous monuments. UNESCO Here’s a complete round-up of every LEGO Star Wars set currently rumoured for release in 2023. Set name To the right of the first green circle door is a passage to a Threepio panel. Behind it is a canister. You can also get this by getting close enough to hop onto the spider walker behind the bars. To get out, just jump in on a second controller, and jump out on the first controller. Jabba's Palace was originally to be located on the planet Sicemon, but was later moved to Tatooine when the former was cut from the final version of Star Wars: Episode VI Return of the Jedi. [16] A top gift for trendsetting kids, the set also includes 7 LEGO Star Wars minifigures, including new-for-March-2022 Bib Fortuna, Boba Fett and a removable Boba Fett helmet, Theelin Dancer, Weequay Guard, Gamorrean Guard and Quarren Star Wars characters, plus assorted weapons.
