Jabba the Hutt Returns to Hasbro for Return of the Jedi Anniversary
Hasbro has revealed an impressive amount of new reveals during Star Wars Celebration including the return of Jabba the Hutt
Jabba the Hutt is back at Hasbro and just in time for the 40th Anniversary of Star Wars: Return of the Jedi. Releasing as part of The Black Series, Jabba will come with Salacious B Crumb, and the new figure showcases him back in his Palace. He will come with a railing and pipe accessory to help capture some of his iconic moments from the Original Trilogy. It looks like Jabba's head will have some moving capabilities, as well as his arms allowing him to hold his pipe. The packaging is a throwback to classic Kenner designs and is necessary when releasing a Return of the Jedi anniversary figure. Hopefully, we will see a Jabba the Hutt rerelease for The Vintage Collection later this year since The Book of Boba Fett Jabba's Throne Room playset is arriving in the Fall. This mighty Star Wars gangster is set for a Fall 2023 release and will be priced at a whopping $89.99. Jabba will be a Hasbro Pulse and shopDisney exclusive, and pre-orders arrive today (April 11, 2023) right here at 1 PM EST.
