The Meatlump King would on occasion paint himself on unmarked lumps.

The Meatlump Lump was nothing more than a lump of painted rock. On the Lump was the face of the Meatlump King, the symbol of the Galactic Credit, and aurebesh text which read, "In Meatlump We Trust." The Meatlump King would on occasion mint Meatlump Lumps himself, by painting his own face on unmarked lumps.

Behind the scenes

Meatlump Lumps were a type of currency in the 2003 video game Star Wars Galaxies, a massively multiplayer online roleplaying game developed by Sony Online Entertainment and published by LucasArts,[1] prior to its closure on December 15, 2011.[2] Meatlump Lumps were added to the game as part of the "Meatlumps Theme Park," introduced with "Chapter 10: The Search for the Meatlump King," released on June 19, 2008.[3] Players could acquire them by doing certain tasks for the Meatlumps. Players could then use the Lumps to purchase a variety of goods from the Meatlumps.[1]

The text, which reads, "In Meatlump We Trust," shares similarity to the United States currency which reads, "In God We Trust."
