A First Look at Jabba’s Sail Barge (75397)

This intricate model, composed of nearly 4,000 pieces, measures 25 cm in width, 77 cm in length, and 25 cm in height. It masterfully replicates the iconic craft from the opening scenes of Return of the Jedi, where Jabba the Hutt plans to cast Han Solo and his allies into the Sarlacc Pit.

In addition to Leia and Jabba, the set features minifigures of Bib Fortuna, C-3PO, Max Rebo, Kithaba, Vizam, Wooof, a Gamorrean Guard, Salacious Crumb, and R2-D2.

Together, these sets beautifully recreate the epic battle over the Great Pit of Carkoon in the Dune Sea.
