What do we know about the little frog guy who eats the other creature outside Jabba’s palace right after Leia and Chewie show up? Is he a muppet? Stop motion? Traditional animation? Before I got into these preservations, when I hadn’t seen the OOT in like 15 years, I assumed he was an SE addition because the quality of his movement is so different from all the other puppets, but now having seen the GOUT and the ROTJ grindhouse and knowing that he’s from '83, I have no idea how they actually did it.
According to Wookeepedia he was actually Luke Skywalker’s informant, and his name was Lard-zen Makuisi-kahn. He distracted the palace guards while Lando snuck in, and he even helped him steal a uniform.
I don’t believe you. Link the Wookiepedia page and I still won’t. So there.
