LEGO novelties at the best price

9516 Jabba's Palace

You will tell me that I recycle an old play on words And you're right.

But it's for a good cause: It's in light of a posted photo on EB by Alldarker that the far-fetched theory, but not too much, of a Rancor pit in the form of a set begins to gain ground ...

Indeed, if you look closely at the image above, you will see four 2x2 holes there which are not really useful in the current state of the set. 9516 Jabba's Palace (sold € 99.12 on amazon.es). So the shortcut is quickly taken: What if LEGO separately released a set in the mind? Structure allowing to insert under the palace of the infamous Jabba a pit housing the even more infamous Rancor?

In my opinion, it is playable. The Rancor, as huge as it is, can be produced by LEGO which knows how to make Wampas, Trolls or Hulks ... 

Suddenly, the set 9516 Jabba's Palace would take on a whole other dimension, much more interesting than the current hut in which we stack our minifigs and the trap door would become really useful, you can throw your renegade minifigs there to see them being devoured by the Rancor figurine inspired by the one seen in the animated episode Star Wars The Padawan Menace...

For the record, remember that the set 4480 Jabba's Palace released in 2003 had been added the same year two other sets to form a relatively correct overall composition: 4475 Jabba's Message et 4476 Jabba's Prize...
