The Star Wars galaxy, since its inception and morphing into every possible support and medium, from movies to TV series to video games to novels, is logically full of creatures and characters, all with their own little IDs: age, planet origin, race, height, and so on. It is about 20 million species of figures that live in the four corners of the galaxy.
Some are obviously ultra famous and have been brought up a lot, like the indestructible Jabba The Hutt. Well, not quite after he gets strangled by Princess Leia in Return of the Jedi. And this is exactly one of the creatures surrounding Jabba here. Her name ? Salaccio B. Crumb.
Do you remember ? This unbearable little creature with a loud laugh, an orange beard, reminiscent of a mogwai, was first seen in St. Return of the Jedi. A 70 cm tall Kovakian monkey-lizard, he acted as Jabba’s joke, obliged to laugh at least once a day at the pain of execution.
A little video sequence to refresh your memory…
In excellent workmanship Behind the scenes – collectionPhil Tippett tells a delicious little anecdote behind this creature’s utterly improbable name. He and his colleagues spent their lunch break washed down with copious beers, brainstorming ideas to make a name for themselves.
The dinner, which ended without an idea, Tippett asked his colleagues to wait because he had to tie his shoelaces. Except that he shot A “I must bind my souls” instead of “Shoe Straps” For shoelaces.
soles? funny word Why not give this name to this exact creature? They pitched the idea to George Lucas. Not impressed, the Star Wars progenitors rearranged a few letters to get “Salacious”. Which, in the end, isn’t a bad description of this creature, which will be as destructive as its master.
