Hairclub for Hutts

Post by Kurgan »

In the ROTJ novel it basically states that all of Jabba's hair has fallen out due to his terrible health (drugs, diseases, age, etc).


So do Hutts have hair (maybe when they're younger and such)?

After all, the only Hutts we've seen in SW have been these old decadent gangsters right?

It'd be like if our only example of a human was Marlon Brando as the Godfather.

Discuss.

Jabba's father Zorba had hair and a beard.

But let's not talk about him... ;)

What's the exact quote for that, by the way?

I remember seeing a pic of a Force-sensative Hutt with a huge braid of hair.

Return of the Jedi Novelization wrote:His head was three times human size, perhaps four. His eyes were yellow, reptilian -- his skin was like a snake's, as well, except covered with a fine layer of grease. He had no neck, but only a series of chins that expanded finally into a great bloated body, engorged to bursting with stolen morsels. Stunted, almost useless arms sprouted from his upper torso, the sticky fingers of his left hand languidly wrapped around the smoking-end of his water-pipe. He had no hair -- it had fallen out from a combination of diseases. He had no legs -- his trunk simply tapered gradually to a long, plump snake-tail that stretched along the length of the platform like a tube of yeasty dough. His lipless mouth was wide, almost ear to ear, and he drooled continuously. He was quite thoroughly disgusting.

weird. I'd always just assumed that ALL hutts looked that way. :?

He was a jedi apprentice that was stranded on the planet that the death seed plague is from.

Oh, I only read that book once, I disliked it so much. I'll have to check again.

Planet of Twilight? The only good thing about that book was that it burned nicely.
