Ugloste was a male Ugnaught who operated the carbon-freezing chamber in Cloud City and froze Han Solo in 3 ABY. He was in charge on determining how to use carbon-freezing on humans, like Solo.[1] Ugloste witnessed Solo being frozen and surviving the process.[2]
Personality and traits[]
Having worked away for humans before he even came to Cloud City, Ugloste had little compunction when the time came to freeze the smuggler Han Solo in carbonite.[1]
Behind the scenes[]
Ugloste was played by Jack Purvis in the 1980 film Star Wars: Episode V The Empire Strikes Back.[2] After restoration work, Ugloste's mask sold for $34,000 at auction in 2020.[3]
