For you trivia buffs, you probably know there were 8 holochess creatures shown during the scenes inA New Hope, but, did you know there were actually 10 sculpted?According to Phil Tippett, "We had made 10 characters George [Lucas] started placing them and then there just wasnt room for two of the characters, and so those got cut from the movie.

When Tippett and fellow creature animator Jon Berg returned for the holochess scene inSolo: A Star Wars, they brought back these "lost" creatures, "Bulbous:" and "Scrimp", as well.They digitally scanned the original props and put them into the film.
