Smatter? You don't get it? [sighs] Bloated One too don't. Seen it. He say, 'Next time, louder and funnier.'" ―Salacious Crumb and Melvosh Bloor, who does not realize to whom he is speaking [5] The original idea for the character of Salacious came from Ben Burtt. He said it would be funny to have a small creature sitting on the shoulder of another creature and repeating everything the larger creature said during arguments. [13]

Growing up in Glasgow, Scotland, McVey fell in love with movie magic and special effects after his father took him to see The 7 th Voyage of Sinbad, with stop-motion by Ray Harryhausen. “I'd never seen anything quite like that before, so it really captured my imagination,” McVey tells StarWars.com. After the family moved to England, a then pre-teen McVey became immersed in researching Harryhausen’s other works and the world of stop motion animation. He can still remember the day he learned about King Kong. “(My dad and I) were standing at a bus stop waiting for the bus, it was taking forever to come. And he started telling me, for some reason, about this movie about a giant ape climbing to the top of the Empire State Building and swatting at bi-planes and being shot off. And I thought, ‘Wow, I have to see that.’ And I did see it eventually in a movie theater when I was 13, was on a double bill with The Thing from Another World.” The original prop is still in the [Lucasfilm] archives. We do a lot of research at the Skywalker Ranch archives and over the years with my other company, we've done restoration work for them on a number of pieces. So we did get to go and look at that real puppet. We got to spend many, many, many hours and days, actually, with it. We were able to measure things. We were able to take photos and really provide Tony with a foundation to make sure that this new sculpt was going to be one-to-one, 100% the same size, the same look, etc. And, you know, we sent Tony a lot of reference photos. Probably way too many reference photos. He can probably sculpt in his sleep at this point. [ Laughs]

Tony McVey, the sculptor who designed and fabricated Salacious B. Crumb -- including a new 1:1 replica statue from Regal Robot -- and many other denizens of the galaxy far, far away, intended to have a career as a graphic designer. With so much of this, we're just trying to capture what Tony did on that original. You know, once that sculpture is in place, we then have to do that finish work. Tony gave us these fingernails with lots of crevices and grooves and things like that in them, and that lets us find all those grooves and put dirt in. And that's when things really come to life. Minikit #3: In the same starting area, find this minikit hidden in the bushes to the right of the speeders that arrive. Grab it before chasing down the escaping scouts!

Tom Spina: Well, he's bigger than people think, too. It's the sort of thing that it's careful, cautious, slow work when you're trying to replicate something. It's fast work when you're creating something for the first time! But to replicate it? It's a slog. You know, and I feel slightly bad for having asked Tony to do that. Part 3 of 3. Our summer series on Obi-Wan Kenobi comes to a close with our finale episode all about Obi-Wan embodying the tarot card figure of "The Hanged Man." What does that mean and how can we consider Obi-Wan as this figure? Caitlin and Charlotte discuss Kenobi as a spiritual figure, his personal tragedies, how he stands between the living and spiritual world, Obi-Wan as a sacrificial figure, comparisons to Ben Solo, and much more. Listen here. Minikit #3: Turn around from the Palpatine boss and go to the right side of the lift. There are three statues here. Use a Jedi / Sith to lift and place each statue inside a case. If you place one in the correct case, the light will be green. Place all three correctly to earn a minikit.

Salacious Crumb

In 4 ABY, Crumb was present when members of the Rebel Alliance came to rescue Han Solo, whom had been frozen in carbonite and hung on the wall of Jabba's audience chamber as a trophy. Crumb was seated before Jabba on his dais when the droids C-3PO and R2-D2 arrived to deliver a message from the Jedi Knight Luke Skywalker. The droids were offered to Jabba as sign of goodwill from Skywalker, though the Hutt declared that he would not give up his "favorite decoration", causing Crumb and the rest of the court to laugh.
