Captain Tibbar

Captain Tibbar is a minor character from the animated series The New Adventures of He-Man.

Captain Tibbar, sometimes called 'Captain Tipper' or 'Captain Dipper', was the owner of a Space Caravan that often travelled across the Tri-Solar System, including trips between Denebria and Primus.

When Skeletor and Slush Head requested a place aboard the Caravan, Tibbar told them it was allready full, as many traders from around the Tri-Solar Galaxy wanted a place on it. The cargo hold had been filled with caged animals. Skeletor strongly implied that he would be able to make sure the trip would go without any accidents. This made Tibbar change his mind and allow the pair of them on board.

Before entering Primus, all ships had to be inspected by members of the Galactic Guardians. In this case, Lieutenant Tuskador, Spinwit and Artilla made a routine check. However, they were soon repelled by the stench coming of the animals in the cargo hold and failed to spot Skeletor and Slush Head, who had hidden themselves in a bale of hay.

After arriving on Primus, Skeletor and Slush Head stole one of Tibbar's shuttle craft from the Caravan, which they agreed would not have pleased the captain.
