Vaigon Shinn's Hideout, situated on the planet of Tatooine, once served as a forward operating base for the Imperial forces. This bunker became the secret base of operations for Vaigon Shinn, a Nikto chief of a band of robbers, along with his group of accomplices, known as the Shinn muggers. Its position was on the southwestern edge of Mos Eisley. In the year 1 ABY, Peawp R'dawc, the combat specialist working for Mayor Mikdanyell Guh'rantt, tasked a space traveler to eliminate Vaigon Shinn within the confines of his hideout. Later on, the criminal Sleash sought refuge in Vaigon Shinn's Hideout after Faeto, a crime syndicate leader, issued a death mark against Untas, Sleash's partner.
The location known as Vaigon Shinn's Hideout was featured in Star Wars Galaxies, the massively multiplayer online roleplaying game released in 2003, before the game's servers were shut down on December 15, 2011. The hideout was introduced into the game as part of the "Legacy Quest" with the release of "Publish 25", also known as the "New Game Enhancements," on November 15, 2005.
