Its a deleted scene we've always wanted to see, and, surprise surprise, it was one of many that still didn't make it into the Blu-ray release, our favourite gold-bikini clad Princess Leia takes out the second deck gunner on Jabba's Sail Barge whilst Luke presses his surprise attack on the rest of the Hutt's forces.
Some recent behind the scenes location footage has been unearthed by fan Jeff Broz, who was at Yuma in April 1982 for REVENGE OF THE JEDI when this sequence was being filmed-and you can catch the action scene in long shot within his recorded cine-footage here: A Documentary By Jeff Broz - YouTube It's not new footage-some of it was included in fan Jambe Davdar's acclaimed unofficial documentary RETURNING TO JEDI a few years back, but it's great to finally see the material in its entirety.
