Background

Jabba's pet Rancor lived in a pit beneath his palace. Whenever Jabba was angry at one of his entertainers or a prisoner, he would pull open a hidden trap door. When the unfortunate landed in the pit, they would always be eaten by the rancor. But, when Luke Skywalker came to rescue Han Solo, who had been frozen by Darth Vader in cloud city, Jabba put Luke in the pit with the rancor. Luke defeated the rancor by throwing a bone at the controls to the gate, and the gate came crashing down on top of the rancor.

Notes

• The set connects to four holes on the bottom of 9516 Jabba's Palace.
• It will include new pieces to represent the Rancor.
