This 2022 release of Bib Fortuna finally brought Jabba the Hutt’s majordomo into the modern Vintage Collection era with a completely new sculpt. Capturing his appearance from Return of the Jedi, this figure replaced the aging 2006 version, offering collectors a high-fidelity representation of the Twi'lek whose job was to filter out the riff-raff from Jabba’s throne room.
Technical Details & Sculpt
- Character Likeness: The sculpt features a remarkable photo-real likeness, capturing the pale, unsettling texture of Bib's skin and his sharpened teeth. His long head-tails (lekku) are draped realistically over his shoulders, and his elongated fingers add to the character's creepy aesthetic.
- Attire: Bib is dressed in his ornate, layered palace robes. The sculpt uses a mix of textures to distinguish between the heavy ceremonial mantle and the lighter under-robes. The blue and grey tones of the outfit are muted and screen-accurate, reflecting the dim lighting of Jabba's Palace.
- Articulation: Despite the bulky nature of his robes, the figure features modern TVC articulation. With barbell-jointed neck and swivel-hinged joints throughout, he can be posed in his classic "whispering" stance or standing guard at the palace entrance.
- Display Utility: This figure is a cornerstone for any Jabba’s Palace display. He fits perfectly on the throne dais alongside the 3.75-inch Jabba the Hutt or standing near the carbonite-frozen Han Solo, acting as the primary point of contact for the various "guests" who enter the palace.
Accessories & Equipment
In a nod to the original Kenner figure, this version includes a removable soft-goods robe. The soft-goods allow for better leg movement while maintaining the character's signature silhouette. He also comes with three distinct staff-like accessories (small canisters or drinking vessels) to recreate the decadent, lounging atmosphere of the court.
