All right, CNN - you're about to get blocked from the room.

With fur there's going to be variation, but the diff between those two upper lips is literally double - what I mean is the first one is futzed by James so all the fur is pushed well above the upper lip (and has shadow, making the stache seem smaller) and in the second unfutzed pic the lower stache fur has drooped over the upper lip making the stache seem huge, which would be easily futzed.

In all these pics, this TFA Chewy keeps reminding me of the furred hasbro Chewy from years ago. Maybe it the color, but also something about the face has that "happy Chewy" look.

that`s what thought. hey look a modern Hasbro version of chewie even the bandolier reminds of the Hasbro furry chewie version.

Would be interested to see more pics of ANH and TFA Han together.

It's weird cause the nose plugs into the ANH version so you would think there wouldn't be that much variation but I guess it could go in and be at slightly different angles (or unless they did away with that and glued it straight to the fur like was suggested).

Here's the ANH undersculpt in case anyone wants it to haunt their dreams.

That's disgusting.

Yup I'm gonna have nightmares now.

I still can't understand the trial and error that resulted in that.

I'm glad many people are enjoying their TFA Chewies, but I just can't get over that upper lip. Sticks out like a sore thumb to me. As much as people rip on the ANH Chewie, I do think it's better than this one.

Would be interested to see more pics of ANH and TFA Han together.

I'd like to see more of this also. Ironic how the good figure has less pictures.

I had high hopes for this new Chewie, waited a long time to see how it came out rather than jumping on the first release, but it looks like I'll be buying the first release after all. Certainly heavily leaning that way so far.

Godspeed to anyone willing to pay $250+ for this Chewie.

Ugh - between these pics and the pics in the ANH CHewy thread of that huge hairball someone combed out of their Chewy, it doesn't exactly inspire you to go a bit deeper to see if something can be done to fix these ugly mugs.

Just saw this on eBay, not sure if it's already been linked:

Can't wait for han. Have to pass on chewie. Besides the problems with the face I just don't like the changes they made to his fur on tfa. To me it kinda looks like he is wearing a wife beater, leg warmers, and no pants

Yeah I wasn't crazy about his lighter coloring in TFA either, but it still came across a lot more subtle in the actual movie I think, and didn't look nearly as bright and contrasty as it does on the figure.

I wonder how popular this Han will be for Toy Anxiety and part-outs. Pretty much the whole outfit is specific to TFA and couldn't be used on other Han figs except maybe the holster and blaster (though I'm sure there are minor differences between those and the OT versions.)

Han Solo looks incredible. A+ on that one.

Chewbacca is a rare BOMB from Hot Toys. All is cool except for the awful facial likeness. D+/C- on that. ANH Chewie was a strong B+.

Hopefully they'll perfect him for a Empire Strikes Back version.

I wonder if the gap between the mouth and the nose are bigger than some

Shadow of the nose makes it appear bigger. Shows a nose mod could be a fix.

Think the muzzle will be something thats caused by a manufactoring error? It just seems so weird given that the proto looked identical to the ANH version. Might be something that's fixed in later batches?
