Product Backstory
Clad in black Jedi robes, Luke Skywalker confronts Jabba the Hut in a seemingly reckless attempt to rescue his friend Han Solo. When his Jedi mind trick fails to influence the crime boss, Luke pulls a blaster to shoot the villain, but before he can fire, Jabba hits the massive button that activates a trap door, sending Luke and an unlucky Gamorrean Guard tumbling downward into a shadowy cave.

Below the throne room, they land in the pit of the monstrous Rancor. Over fifteen feet high, this immense hulk of muscle and armored reptilian skin has long, exaggerated arms with huge claws and a flat face dominated by its salivating razor toothed maw- a truly terrifying sight.

Jabba and his depraved guests look down through the viewing gate to catch a glimpse of the bloodbath, expecting the usual Rancor feast. Luke quickly discards his Jedi robe to move more efficiently in the dark shadows while the pig-like Gamorrean struggles to escape. Soon, a massive gate is raised, and an immense clawed arm reaches out. The Rancor lifts the Gamorrean to its mouth and swallows him whole.

Containing his fear, Luke scans the cave and finds a long bone from one of the Rancor's past victims. When the beast grabs Luke, he thrusts the bone into its jaws and struggles free of the Rancor's grip. He quickly locates the switch to lower the holding gate, and when the Rancor lunges forward, Luke throws a rock, activating the gate and crushing Jabba's vicious pet to emerge from the cave unscathed.
