The loyal enforcer of Jabba the Hutt made his way onto the Bantha-II cargo skiff in The Vintage Collection in 2011 as part of Wave 6. Representing the specific Weequay who steered the prisoner skiff during the failed execution at the Great Pit of Carkoon in Return of the Jedi, this figure was a highlight for fans of the original trilogy's alien underworld. It finally provided a super-articulated, modern version of the character that perfectly captured the leathery, wrinkled aesthetic of his species, replacing the outdated sculpts of previous decades.

Technical Details & Sculpt

• Design & Alien Anatomy: The sculpt is a masterclass in texture, featuring the deep, dried-out skin folds and braided top-knot characteristic of the Weequay species. He wears a specialized vest and combat harness over a simple tunic, all rendered with a "lived-in" feel appropriate for a pirate in the employ of a Hutt.
• Deco & Weathering: The 2011 release features a rich, earthy paint application. The skin is finished with a dark wash to emphasize the deep wrinkles and crags of his face, while his vest and trousers utilize muted greys and tans. Subtle weathering on his boots reflects the perpetual sand and grit of the Tatooine wastes.
• Articulation: Featuring premium TVC articulation, including ball-jointed shoulders, elbows, and knees. The ball-jointed hips and "rocker" ankles are essential for a figure designed to maintain a steady stance at the steering vanes of a Tatooine Skiff or to engage in a desperate skirmish with Luke Skywalker.
• Display Utility: This is the mandatory "crew" figure for any Desert Skiff or Jabba’s Sail Barge diorama. He is best positioned at the rear of the skiff alongside Kithaba (VC56) or Lando Calrissian (VC144).

Accessories & Equipment

The Weequay Skiff Master comes prepared for a desert skirmish. He includes his signature force pike and a blaster pistol. A standout feature of the 2011 release is the functional holster on his right hip, allowing for secure weapon storage while he is manning the controls. His combat harness is a separate, soft-plastic overlay that adds a sense of realistic layering to his torso, providing a level of depth that defines the "Vintage" standard.
