Jabba's Palace Roll Call #7: Amanaman
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 1 авг 2024
- This is a very belated new addition in my series of Jabba's Palace Roll Call videos, where I explore the back story of minor characters from Jabba's Palace and the merchandise that has been created for them.

Jabba's Palace would be such a horrifying place to actually be in. Like this dude is just chilling out with a cadaver and a staff covered in heads, and he's not even the worst guy in the place. Nobody even pays attention to Amanaman dragging a skeletal corpse around, that's how bad everyone in that place is. Wild
please for the love of god don’t ever stop doing jabba’s palace roll call. watch them all the time
We've been suckered in. We'll be watching these role call videos until we fall into the sun
These are awesome 👌
@Michael S. no one but you cares for that
Yeah don't stop
Amanaman does indeed have the skeleton in his left hand in the movie. It's hard to make out, but it is there.
Mmm, just rewatched all the previous ones and here’s that!Good, good...
Same!
I’m so happy you made another jabbas palace roll call!
This is actually a really cool series. Super nerdy, right up my alley this late at night
Staff will straighten out with a careful soak in some hot water. The hot water will soften the plastic, you can then straighten it and when straight dunk it in super cold water to undo the softening from the hot water.
I used to call him "the laffy taffy alien".
One of my favorite aliens from Jabba's Palace! I bought the Power of the Force Kenner figure a few weeks ago. It's a beautiful, unpunched card.
I love this series P.S. I would like to see one about Droopy Mccool
01:57 - Han: "No. Don't take me BACK there!" ;P
Been waiting for more role call for a looooong time! Glad to see it's back.
Love it! Great video. Thank you! Easily one of my favourite aliens in the series. I hope they do Retro Vintage and TVC figures of him before too long. In my Jabba's courtroom display, I had him accompanied by a couple of Snowths. Doot DOO doot doo-doo!
There are a couple more glimpses of him in the film beyond what you mentioned. In the original cut, as Oola and Yarna are dancing before Jabba in the background while "Lapti Nek" plays, he can be seen on the right of the screen in the foreground in one of the alcoves, apparently talking to Tessek, as his mouth is moving. In the "Jedi Rocks" version, you just catch the briefest glimpse of him at this same angle as Oola and Yarna are dancing, right before they cut to Rappertunie is finishing his growdi solo.
He can also be glimpsed several times during the main "Jedi Rocks" number. In the "over Jabba's shoulder" shots, you can see him reclining in the alcove, in the company of Bubo and Tessek. You don't see him during the scene where "Boushh" is haggling with Jabba over the price on Chewbacca's head, but as the Gamorreans are leading Chewbacca away, Amanaman's face can be seen very briefly at the bottom of the screen.
this needs way more likes to respect such in-depth research
@@reptilienkonig6551 Thank 'e very much, mate! Greatly appreciated!
Good your finally back in these roll calls
0:10 doot doo duh doo doo 1:01 doot doo duh doo 1:13 doot doo duh doo doo , dut doodoo , dut doodoo , dut doo doodoo doo doot dut doo duh doo...
I've always been a huge fan of the creatures of Chalmun's Cantina and Jabba's Palace. Thanks for doing these roll calls. They're great. I have read Tales From Jabba's Palace but I don't always remember everyone's story so this is a welcomed chance to renew my memory of them.
My favorite from the palace.
Amanamans always been one of my favourite characters, glad to finally see him get some recognition!!
Also may I suggest wol cabbashite for a future episode, I realise he isn’t very well known but it would make for an interesting video.
Hi mighty jabbas collection pls wil you make one about droopy mccool?
These are my favourite types of videos. Glad you haven't stopped doing them
Loved seeing him roll away from Shand and Boba Fett at the end of The Mandalorian.
Cant wait until you make ephant mon and squidface :)))
🤞Ephant mon or hermie oodle next
Ephant mon
While watching this I noticed for the first time how Amanaman looks like a cool kaiju, like something out of the 1966 Ultraman series. Random observation, but I thought it was neat.
Jabbas palace is definitely worthy of this level of respect
I’ve been binge watching your vids from start to finish. I loved the roll calls, and couldn’t wait to see more. Your content is amazing, keep it up!
I still have this figure from my childhood. Great video
I love that they made a figure of a obscure charaat
nice very nice all of them
Thank you for making another jabbas palace roll call.love your videos
Just found your channel, awesome! I am currently (and slowly) working on a Jabba's Palace 6" Black Series diorama. I bought a resin/3D printed 1:12 scale Amanaman figure that I had to assembled and paint. This video was great reference for that project. Subscribed too!
Aaron Geis Welcome! Where did you get the figure?
@@MightyJabbasCollection Thank you! Outer Rim Traders. I don't know if the link will work here, but here is my finished figure. I used a combination of the Gentle Giant bust and set photos for painting inspiration. photos.app.goo.gl/LBAM5rYGut7hb8MG6
If I recall, he was first introduced with that Jabba's Dungeon playset in the Sears wishbook of '84. I know I looked how and low for that particular playset because of the new figures at the stores and eventually getting him in the '85 Power of the Force line.
I bought the original figure when I went to a toy shop and saw it without ever noticing him in the movie. As a ten year old kid, I loved his design and picked him up when I could have bought another figure with a character that I actually knew. On subsequent viewings of Return of the Jedi, I started noticing him in the background. I pretty much thought of the character as a bounty hunter in line with Boba and the other hunters featured in The Empire Strikes Back.
Played by Alisa berk. Who worked on Disney era films as the movement coach. For folk playin aliens. She also worked in a similar role in modern dr who too.
I absolutely love this series!!! 😍
Thank you very much for continuing this series
These are absolutely INCREDIBLE! Please keep up this good work!
He has more of a presence in the comic book scene. It was awesome find out his name because my name is similar and pronounced Ah_mon just like how you say Amani.
The prodigal son has returned.
Please do more of these episodes 👌💚🇮🇪🙏
I’m really glad you brought this back :)
WE NEED MORE OF THIS
Thank you for making another roll call i have seen all the other roll calls.
I love this series of videos keep up the good work
Yay! I really enjoy this series!
I still have my original action figure of this dude from the 80’s.
you can also see the back of his head when ola is dancing
Not only are they blink and you miss them but in 4:3 and the picture quality of vhs he was probably either blurred out of scenes or cut mostly out of frame (like the Han reveal scene). This is probably why his appearance as a figure confused people without a laserdisc player for years.
That’s a good point. I’ve often wondered about some of the choices that Kenner made with their action figure line. I feel like they probably were just supplied with a number of character designs but didn’t have any information about how important they would be in the actual film.
I think you might find the sceleton accessorie somewhere in the Rancor pit.
He also appeared in the Lapti Nek song as someone in the crowd.
Met the ACTRESS who played him. Ailsa Berk is a Scottish actress/puppeteer who also played the front half of Aslan in the BBC Chronicles of Narnia series.
She's done a lot in Doctor Who, as well.
i used to call the action figure the lima bean guy
wish they made him in the jumbo line , got tried of waiting and bought a 3-d print bootleg
it's a great creature, just bizarre enough to interesting, but not so far out there it's just plain strange, and he's also not a generic mask without personality that looks like it came out of a halloween shop.
I love this series. I hope it will get more vids!
So I re watched return of the Jedi and I saw amanaman and didn't realize it was him and his staff
Oh nice I’ve been waiting for this for so long
Mighty jabba can you do a jabbas palace roll call about the rangcor or rancor keeper please. And i have been watching your videos since your first upload just wanna say your the best youtuber in all of youtube❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I know this is a little off topic but I was talking to a Haslab customer service rep. and they are thinking of doing a second jabba's sail barge crowd funding so put in your input to help make it a reality 😆
I’ve been waiting so long for this
Hell yeah you need to review that dungeon
Lucasarts has been designing Smiling Friends characters since before Zach Hadel was born.
Geepers Creepers, Jabba you're back! And I see there are other video's I've missed. Sorry I didn't have the Bell rung so hadn't seen you post new videos. Issue corrected. Great video, very interesting.
Yeeeeessss! It's back!!!
This reminds me of micahc6v8 old video of this character
Jabba without Face-mask? Please Jabba you need to protect yourself :)
We need a new Vintage Collection, super articulated Amanaman figure!
I wholeheartedly support this idea!
YES!! Thank you!!!
😐😑😐😑😐😐😑😆😕😑😐😑😕😑
Love his vintage figure
I hope they release Amanaman in the Retro Vintage Collection. I'm not concerned about value or coins, I just want a vintage-style Amanaman with staff that won't cost me several hundred bucks.
Every time I saw the Jabba's palace scene, I always wondered what the deal was with that seemingly innocuous looking creature. Now I know he's a blood thirsty head hunting bounty hunter. Cool.
I'd love to see a video over all the Kettle Art blocks you have
He's actually shown a lot if you watch the 4K version, almost every scene lol
Never noticed the tautan mounted head on the wall before or that human guy in red both at 1:37
lol i wouldn't be too worried about amanaman catching me or causing any harm with gangly arms and stumpy little legs and gremlin banana body like that!🤣🤣 does he have any magic powers or spells to cast with that bent knobbly-ass staff??
Perhaps amanaman uses his arms to run like a gorilla
@@monkeybro162 lol 😆 😂 🤣 does he? does he have any back story in the EU?
Probably not worth a whole video but Ardon ‘Vapour’ Crell would be interesting paired up with one or two other obscure members of Jabba’s court.
If you got two of those skeletons and painted them ashy gray, they could be Owen and Beru after the stormtroopers attacked.
I got two of the Vitruvian Hacks 3.75" scale skeletons in black for exactly that reason. Fully articulated, too, so you can drape them any old way you want. 😉
Amanaman’s head looks like a mushroom like the underside of one
Always wondered what happened to Hans restraints. He was cuffed when he was carbonized.
I had this as a toy and I had no idea what the fuck this was.
Edit: I had the one from 2001, I even remember the corpse/staff!!! Holy shit, this is a blast from the past. Now I know where it's from! Even though I don't have the toy anymore lmao
I wish Zuckuss and 4-lom were in the jabbas palace scene
The question we should be asking is why did Amanaman have Uncle Owen's roasted skeleton?
I like amanaman
At 6:41 i know for a fact that amanaman is holdin that decapitated corpse at least in the production stills
I had no idea he’s been back for 2 month
You can also see him from 0:12-0:15 in the original Lapti Nek scene on the right side in the shadowed foreground: ruclips.net/video/o_JLiqKAgCg/видео.html
He achully was in one of the booths
This is awesome that you made another role call video! Will you be continuing the series?
Yes I will be making more
Mighty Jabba's Collection Awesome!
I think the humanoid feet just reflects genetic diversity. It's certainly weird for a species of worm to develop humanoid feet, but in the comic there were ones with snouts, human-foot ones, gigantic ones that could swallow men (in cover art though), and these banana foot ones all depicted as being members of the same tribe. I'd have my collecting year made if they released a new vintage carded Amanaman, but I don't know how likely that really is.
I think that's mainly just down to Amanin being so damned difficult to draw, and a lot of artists don't always have access to the right reference materials, or they just fudge the details. I'm thinking in particular of that black-and-white "Avengers" comics book cover that supposedly has a drawing of Amanaman on it, but I dare not say what it ACTUALLY looks like, where kids might be reading. 😉
@@Beedo_Sookcool I think you definitely have the out-of-universe reasoning for why they're so weirdly diverse, this is just my goofy internal logic so I can have my Amanin Warrior and Amanaman figures be friends on my display shelf.
@@rootsnootthnute8598 That's fair enough. I just can't see it as anything other than a quality-control problem.
@@Beedo_Sookcool Yeah, it's sort of like Ponda Baba losing his arm, in the first shot he has suction cup hands, and then when the hand gets sliced off, it's a hairy humanoid hand once it hits the ground. Some writer expanded that and invented two Aqualish subspecies based on the discrepancy, so there's a precedent for oversights on aliens to be explained as variants in Star Wars.
i've seen Star Wars doens of times, but i hae still never seen Snaggletooth in the Cantina!
The character wasn't in the cantina in the film, only the notorious holiday special! thats where the picture on the action figure card comes from.
Amanaman also had a wife:
Awomanawoman.
I'll let myself out...
20 years old is "modern" yet in 2001 the orgianl figure was considerd "Vintage" wait what?
He’s holding unkel owen and aunt maru
Didn't Dark Horse do an Amanaman comic book? I think I remember seeing one at St. Mark's Comics.
Yeah, Dark Horse's "Star Wars -- Empire: To the Last Man," issues 16, 17, & 18.
How is this only at #7? This is great and needs a weekly update.
Why don't you do a Skiff Guard special?
Tbh I prefer the more obscure denizens, like cabshite, ephont mon, b'omarr or even the original yoh yowza. (at least I think it is him)
