Who Was Jabba The Hut?

Jabba the Hut was a fictional character that was part of the Star Wars series. He was a 600-year old, grotesquely obese, sluglike creature that was the galaxy's top criminal underlord.  He resided in a palace on the planet of Tatooine, where he once kept lovely Princess Leia captive as a harem girl.

Jabba the Hut was first seen in director George Lucas' Return of the Jedi in 1983.

Jabba the Hut is one of the most popular Star Wars figurines. When Return of the Jedi was released in 1983, there were many Jabba the Hut action figures, dolls, and toys available for children in the stores. Children loved playing with the Jabba the Hut figures and toys. Today, Jabba the Hut is still part of Star Wars and some Jabba the Hut toys can still be found and purchases in the stores
