I think prune-face was just another excuse for an action figure really.
I've always found this to be a cheap shot at Lucas.
Were all the aliens in the cantina just an excuse? Were the ugnauts or Lando's copilot just excuses?
We complan that all the shuttles in ROTJ were the same, but if they were different were they just excuses to sell another vehicle?
Frankly I wish there were MORE superfluous aliens in ROTJ.
