I didn't find the A New Hope Jabba that bad looking. But he definutly could have been better. He is one the lesser effects of the Special Editions. With how excellent the digital ships in the Special Edition look they really should have put that effort into Jabba. In The Phantom Menace Jabba looked much better. He was such a vast improvement. The digital bits says they can confirm that the old lesser Jabba will be replaced with a much better one for the 2004 DVDs. I don't know if Han will still step on his tail I guess we will find out in September.
