So, the day is saved and Han is about to head on his merry way when Chewie invites him to stay for Life Day celebrations.

Han can't, however, as he needs to get back to the Falcon, and on his way out the door, says of Lumpy, "He's sure grown, huh? I think his voice is changing", as Lumpy howls in protest and Han reminds him he's only kidding.

What an odd joke to put in a show aimed primarily at kids. It's not that it's offensive or crude, just that it's...weird, and seems like an incredibly un-Han thing to say.
