Debuting after the Plug-F Mammoth Podracer, the Gargantua model surpassed its predecessor's sales.
When the Podracer Sebulba's Mammoth was defeated and ultimately destroyed during the Boonta Eve Classic of 32 BBY, the Dug bought the podracer that had been built and used by Anakin Skywalker to win the race. However, his son Hekula destroyed it and Skywalker would later reclaim what was left of the pod. Sebulba then bought a new Gargantua. The Dug would use it in many races and was the vehicle that he used against Skywalker's rebuilt Radon-Ulzer at the Boonta Eve Classic of 24 BBY.
The Gargantua is selectable as Sebulba's vehicle in the game Star Wars: Racer Revenge. It is fair in cooling, repair and acceleration, excels in defense and handling, but top speed is where it shines the best.
