I can't remember where I read this, and I didn't feel like surfing through Rebelscum archives for an answer, but can any Star Wars nerds out there confirm that Hasbro is going to make a new, articulated (as much as possible) Jabba? Always wanted to get this figure but have been holding off from buying the vintage or the 2004 version in hopes of getting a newer, more definitive one, if they are indeed working on this.

I believe the preferred nomenclature is "Star Wars Geeks"

I'm fine with nerd... I know it is something that has been on the table for a while. I don't know why they are dragging their feet though. The one from 2004 was a repaint of something released for Episode I. Some sort of slime thing. The Jabba that came out with Ep.I sucked...
I think we will see an animated Jabba before a new more accurate ROTJ Jabba. I think it is really funny that the vintage Jabba has been the best as far as sculpt goes. (not paint though) I would have figured that since this is the 25th anniversary of ROTJ this year, a new Jabba would have been a great idea... |

I know, right. He's such an iconic figure but I'm not interested in an animated Jabba with that weird octagonal, marionettish cube head. I want an ROTJ Jabba with moving tongue and arms and hands and tail and maybe a cool dais.

And I agree, a ROTJ JABBA would be much better than the designs used outside that movie.
