As I frequently do, I checked out the Star Wars action figures at Target the other day. I saw this figure of Bane Malar and read the little description on the reverse side:"The mysterious bounty hunter Bane Malar occasionally visits Jabba's palace on the Western Dune Sea. He reveals little of himself, causing suspicion and rumors that Malar is a telepath who steals people's secrets to use against them later. Armed with his trusty weapon, this Bane Malar figure hides mysteriously behind his dark helmet."
They might as well just have written "We found this toy mold in the Lucas warehouse, slapped a logo on it, wrote a really vague, halfassed description and sold it to you for $7.99" and been honest about it.

I saw him on Hasbro's Star Wars site a couple of months ago and did the research and came to the same conclusion.
If you read his bio on Wookieepedia, it says that he was believed to have appeared in ROTJ, but he didn't. Pretty awesome right there. But that pretty much sums up the character, he's "the dude that got cut at the last minute because he was uninteresting".
