With the premiere of Return of the Jedi in 1983 and the accompanying merchandising campaign, Jabba the Hutt has extended his popularity outside Star Wars. The character was produced and marketed as a series of action figure play sets by Kenner/ Hasbro from 1983 to 2004. [74] In the 1990s, Jabba the Hutt starred in his own comic book series, Jabba the Hutt: The Art of the Deal, which is a reference to the book of the same title by Donald Trump. [75]Jabba the Hutt exemplifies lust, greed, and gluttony. [21] The character is known throughout the Star Wars universe as a "vile gangster" [22] who amuses himself by torturing and humiliating his subjects and enemies. He surrounds himself with scantily-clad slave girls of all species, chained to his dais. The Star Wars Databank remarks that residents of his palace are not safe from his desire to dominate and torture: [23] in Return of the Jedi, the Twi'lek slave dancer Oola is fed to Jabba's pet rancor. [24] What does Jabba's palace have to do with the Turks? In an annotated set of pictures, the center drew a parallel between the dome of Jabba's house and the dome of the Hagia Sophia, a 1,500-year-old monument that has served as a church and a mosque but is now used as a cultural museum. The tower rising beside Jabba's palace? To the Austrian Turks, that looks like a Muslim minaret. The Turkish Cultural Community in Austria put together a detailed comparison of the Turkischegemeinde.at The centuries-old Hagia Sofia is one of Turkey's most famous monuments. UNESCO At the center of the room, the polished stone floor gave way to a viewing grille which looked down upon a large pit where Jabba's beasts would fight, entertaining the Hutt and his guests. Amongst the beasts were Jabba's prized rancor and a krayt dragon. A trap door in the floor in front of Jabba's dais could be opened by a trigger mechanism in the Hutt's hookah pipe, dropping threatening or otherwise bothersome guests into the pit to be devoured. The throne room was host to Jabba's private band, the Max Rebo Band in the Hutt's last days. The band, headlining vocalists Sy Snootles and Joh Yowza, performed at Jabba's whim, occupying a loft directly off of the chamber. [13] [14]

Following the death of Jabba, several of his employees including the beastmaster Malakili stayed at the palace waiting for a new Hutt to occupy the dais. As the food dwindled and water ran out, many of Jabba's former employees abandoned the castle. Malakili was one of the last to leave. He subsequently joined a community called Freetown, which was led by the lawman and Mayor Cobb Vanth, who enlisted Malakili's services in taming two rontos and a Huttlet named Borgo. The Red Key crime syndicate had attempted to install the Huttlet in Jabba's palace but Cobb foiled their plan. [23]McEwan, Cameron (November 15, 2010).

While most of Jabba courtiers followed him to the pit, very few returned. Indeed, Jabba and most of his minions died in a fiery explosion that engulfed the Khetanna, his private sail barge, and the Alliance members escaped. [11] Some of those who survived returned to the palace in an attempt to take over the crime lord's empire or to steal his wealth. Many fell victim to B'omarr initiation rituals and had their brains removed. The palace eventually was shut down, the gates refusing to open for anyone. While many of Jabba's relatives or opponents attempted to take the palace, the walls were impenetrable and it eventually fell into abandonment. McMilian, Graeme (April 25, 2014). "Lucasfilm Unveils New Plans for Star Wars Expanded Universe". The Hollywood Reporter. Archived from the original on August 30, 2016 . Retrieved May 26, 2016. Given the size of the first three LEGO Star Wars dioramas, including 75329 Death Star Trench Run Diorama and 75330 Dagobah Jedi Training Diorama, a follow-up set of Jabba’s Palace would likely not include the tower from the 2012 set, but instead focus mostly on the Hutt’s throne. That would account for the lower price, even factoring in a decade’s inflation. Tales from Jabba's Palace (1996), a collection of short stories edited by Kevin J. Anderson, pieces together the lives of Jabba the Hutt's various minions in his palace and their relationship to him during the last days of his life. These stories reveal that very few of the Hutt's servants are loyal to him, with many plans underway among their ranks to attempt his assassination. When Jabba the Hutt is killed in Return of the Jedi, his surviving former courtiers join forces with his rivals on Tatooine and his family on the Hutt homeworld Nal Hutta make claims to his palace, fortune, and criminal empire. [54] Timothy Zahn's novel Heir to the Empire (1991) reveals that a smuggler named Talon Karrde eventually replaces Jabba as the "big fish in the pond" and moves the headquarters of the Hutt's criminal empire off of Tatooine.
