Sebulba is a character from the science-fiction movie Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace. Due to the Star Wars films' popularity among Spacesim members, Ian Martin brought in a toy figurine of Sebulba for the Office.
Movie Character
Sebulba was a former slave who had bought his freedom with his incredible skills at piloting a high-speed podracer. Before long, Sebulba became the star racer of the Galactic Podracing Circuit, based not only on his formidable racing skills but also his penchant for violence. Many fellow podracers were killed or injured by Sebulba's reckless steering or out-and-out cheating, but Sebulba was far too popular to be blamed or penalized. ---Wookieepedia, the Star Wars Wiki
In Spacesim
In the Office, there is a plastic toy figurine of Sebulba in his trademark podracer. It comes on an elegant stand and Sebulba's arms and legs are movable. Morgan Mersereau made it clear that he wished for the podracer not to be touched, due to its being expertly posed in a turning position. Unfortunately, due to the racer being knocked around and Sebulba frequently being lost, it now resides in one of the Sim Office's many filing cabinet drawers.
