The Jabba's Palace set caused controversy earlier this year when it was noticed that it bore a resemblance to the Hagia Sophia mosque in Istanbul. The model is based on the set featured in the movie Star Wars: The Return of the Jedi from 1983. It comes with models of the gelatinous mobster, as well as other characters from the films. Lego model Jabba's Palace, which retails for £119.99 But taking exception to the toy and its supposed resemblance to mosques in Turkey and Beirut, the Turkish Cultural Community of Austria demanded its removal. “What Lego are recommending parents buy as a Christmas gift? The answer is pure racism,” the Austrian Times reports the group as saying. According to the Telegraph, the group said that Jabba's smoking of a Middle Eastern water pipe and Princess Leia's famously skimpy metal bikini heightened the offence. It added in a statement: "It is apparent that, for the figure of the repulsive bad guy Jabba and the whole scenery, racial prejudices and hidden suggestions against Orientals and Asians were used as deceitful and criminal personalities.”

It also claimed the model is similar to the Jami al-Kabir mosque in Beirut and adds the “Combination of temple building and bunker facilities where shots are fired cannot be appropriate for children between 9 and 14 years old. "One would expect more empathy and responsibility from a manufacturer of toys that has produced toys and models that are good for teaching for decades." Then last week the Turkish community said that Lego had agreed to withdraw the toy. "We want to thank and congratulate Lego for its decision to no longer produce, from 2014, Jabba's Palace, and remove it from advertising," said Birol Kilic, chairman of the Turkish Cultural Community at the time. Istanbul's Hagia Sophia mosque However Lego - the world's most valuable toy maker - has always denied the claims of racism, and later insisted that the decision to remove the toy from sale was part of its natural lifecycle. "There have been no changes to the product 9516 or its lifecycle due to the dialogue with the Turkish community," a spokesperson told the Telegraph.

At the time of the first controversy, Lego insisted that the toy was not based on any real landmark. "The Lego Star Wars product Jabba's Palace does not reflect any actually existing buildings, people, or the mentioned mosque. The Lego mini-figures are all modelled on characters from the movie. "We regret that the product has caused the members of the Turkish cultural community to come to a wrong interpretation, but point out that when designing the product only the fictional content of the Star Wars saga were referred to." Lego Racism Toys Princess Leia Star Wars Jabba The Hut Lego Star Wars Jabba’s Palace Danish toy giant Lego on Tuesday batted down the idea that it is pulling its Jabba’s Palace kit — based on a scene from Star Wars Episode VI — from store shelves as a result of pressure from an organization concerned about discrimination against Muslims and other groups. Lego, which is gobbling up market share in the global market for playthings, said the move to take down the product is purely related to its rigid product cycles.

Earlier this year, the company came under fire from the Austria Turkish Cultural Community, which said the set appeared to copy the Hagia Sophia Mosque in Istanbul. It also complained to Lego for selling figurines participating in belly dancing, hookah smoking and other activities that “defamed” people living in Asia and the Middle East. On its website Tuesday, the Austria Turkish Cultural Community said in a German press release that it was pleased to have played a role in Lego’s decision to cease sale of the Jabba set at the end of this year. Lego spokesman Roar Rude Trangbaek said the company did indeed meet with the organization in March, but only to explain the way that toys are made. Once a deal is struck with a partner – in this case Lucasfilm Ltd. – company designers spend months in the workshop working on countless building-block configurations in order to get a close facsimile of the real thing. The Wall Street Journal dug into the process in a December feature story about building a Lego Hobbit.

Lego invests big bucks in the development process to “allow both young and old Star Wars fans act out the scenes from the movies at home,” the company said in a statement issued Tuesday. “Jabba’s palace does not reflect any non-fiction buildings, people or the mentioned mosque.” The figurines in the box, which has its own wiki, are movie characters such as Salacious Crumb, Bib Fortuna, Oola, Hans Solo, Chewbacca and Princess Leia, who is disguised as Boushh. Lego “regrets that the product has caused the members of the Turkish cultural community to interpret it wrongly,” according to its statement. Lego said it was planning all along to discontinue the set at the end of this year as Star Wars kits “usually have a life-cycle of one to three years.” The company reserves the right to revive a kit in the future or rework the set under a new version. This version was released in mid-2012, while another, released ten years ago, looked completely different. Mr. Trangbaek said Lego avoids replicating any type of religious building, focusing instead on popular storylines ranging from its own creations to Hollywood blockbusters like Toy Story.
