On Tuesday, Hasbro revealed a new Jabba the Hutt set for their Star Wars Vintage Collection toy line. The set features Jabba the Hutt, a mini-carded Salacious Crumb, a carded 8D8, and an accessory-packed dias.
Here’s Hasbro’s official description:
Jabba the Hutt was one of the galaxy’s most powerful gangsters, with far-reaching influence in both politics and the criminal underworld. Fans can celebrate the legacy of STAR WARS, the action-and-adventure-packed space saga from a galaxy far, far away, with this premium 3.75-inch scale STAR WARS: THE VINTAGE COLLECTION JABBA THE HUTT SET inspired by STAR WARS: RETURN OF THE JEDI. This Jabba the Hutt throne room set features 3.5-inch scale Jabba the Hutt, Salacious B. Crumb and smelter droid 8D8 figures. Each figure features premium detail and design across product and packaging inspired by the original Kenner line, as well as the entertainment-inspired collector grade deco. Pose out Jabba and his minions with the included armrest, soft goods pillows, and rugs and the set’s aquarium, pipe, and food and drink accessories. Fans and collectors can add this dais to their Boba Fett Throne Room playset or begin building out their own scene from the Star Wars galaxy. Includes 3 figures, dais, and 7 entertainment-inspired accessories.
The set was initially revealed in an article by Cheryl Eddy at Gizmodo, which was followed by a video from Hasbro Pulse showing off some of the set’s features.
A few of the highlights:
- Jabba the Hutt is an updated version of the one included with the Sail Barge.
- Salacious Crumb features all-new tooling.
- The dais interacts with the Boba Fett Throne Room set, which has been put back up for preorder at Hasbro Pulse.
The Jabba the Hutt playset will be a Hasbro Pulse exclusive and carry a hefty $89.99 price tag. While that’s a bit too much, it’s still a fantastic offering. If you still need a 3.75-scale Jabba for your collection, this is definitely the one you want and the way to display him.
The set is currently available for preorder with an expected arrival in the fall of 2024.
