Max Rebo is a Star Wars minifigure released in 2013.

Description[]

Max Rebo consists of blue short legs, entirely blue torso and a headpiece moulded in a lighter blue than the torso and legs. The headpiece is a new mould and has white and black printing for eyes, the only printing on the figure. The headpiece has large droopy ears, a long bulbous proboscis, bugged out eyes and small scattered bumps.

Background[]

Max Rebo was the leader of the Max Rebo Band. He and his band provided music and entertainment for Jabba and those that served him. He signed up to work with Jabba for no pay, receiving an all-you-can-eat meal plan instead, an act that greatly annoyed his fellow band members. After Jabba's death, the band split up.

Years later, Rebo appears in the Sanctuary bar on Tatooine, performing with a new band. This bar was frequented by Boba Fett during his time as Daimyo of Mos Espa. He would also attend a Life Day celebration held by Rey in the LEGO Star Wars Holiday Special.

Notes[]

  • Rebo and his band specialize in a genre of music known as "jizz", with Rebo himself being known as a "jizz-wailer". This bizarre name was first revealed in a 2017 junior novelization of Star Wars Episode VI: Return of the Jedi.
  • In The Skywalker Saga, Rebo's side quest involves the player helping him make it to another gig in time after the destruction of Jabba's sail barge. This is a reference to a sketch in Adult Swim comedy series Robot Chicken's third Star Wars-themed special, in which Rebo is complaining after the destruction of Jabba's ship that he has another gig to get to and he's not sure he can make it there.
  • Max Rebo's minifigure is based on the now non-canonical pre-Disney buyout interpretation of Max Rebo that had both arms and legs. Internal research at Lucasfilm in 2013 concluded that the design intent of the maquette and puppet was that Max Rebo only had legs and that he was sitting on a cushion atop his piano rather then standing inside of it.
