I'm not kidding:

Lego scraps Star Wars toy Jabba after 'anti-Muslim' complaints

The last thing we want to do is "offend" anyone from certain, specific groups.

That's ridiculous. Imagine if one of the lego characters in it looked like Muhammed. The lego execs would've been found dead in a ditch.

ridiculousness by the 'offended crowd' once again.. but I guess time for me to buy some and squirrel away for collector value

I think the name Jabba is probably the problem.

It sounds like an Arab name.

WTF???

Jabba the Hut should be more offensive to Americans than Muslims, seeing as 80% of our fucking fat disgusting ass population look slike Jabba.

You ever met anyone named Jabba? I haven't.
