Grats. It's a very fine piece. Very awesome representation of Chewie.

It really is. Seems to capture him just right. I was debating this one or another piece on eBay. Ultimately, I decided it's better to get him new. There will always be other items for resale later.

Another one bites the dust. I just ordered Chewie.

He is a great addition to any SW collection. Grats on getting him ordered!

damn those wall units look great! I got the approval to start a man cave in my basement. are those beasta? Can you drop me a link to them?

Yes, those are besta units.
I didn't like the white, and the brown/black are too dark inside, so we went with the birch cabinets with brown/black doors. The birch might look like unfinished wood in my washed-out pics, but I can assure you, they don't. They have this nice hue, with a very smooth, polished finish, look very classy, and a good compromise if you don't like white but don't want your statues to 'get lost' inside a dark cabinet.
Those are regular 3-high besta cabinets. You can choose from 3 colors ( brown/black, birch, white ), and few styles/colors for doors, including the narrow-framed.

This PF is spot-on Chewie. Another PF to which SS promo pics did disservice. Great statue, and a must have for a SW fan.

I honestly think the black is way to dark I agree there but I do like the birch as well. The problem I have is ikea discontinuing it. I'd rather have all one color then a mismatch of colors, reason why I prefer white and also its a basement that is dark. I learned my lesson buying the darker oak color that got discontinued.

Thanks j97e1, I may just mix it up a bit what to display. I honestly love batman and a few of my avengers pf so I gonna pick my favorites.

You got #9? I wonder how they determine the order for delivery, or if they just get a bunch at once and pick a box when they ship them out?

It's random.

The Dark Side is STRONG with this one.

Congrats, Chewie is a great addition to a Star Wars collection!

Finally got around to bringing the Chewbacca PF to work. Took some quick pics for you guys.

Here he is in his place in my office:

Little comparison of his size along with the Black Series Leia and R2:

Here he is dwarfing the awesome Undying Carcass PF:

Also, I had no idea that the base lit up. Nice little surprise.

EDIT: And I got #45

 

[myc]

congrats !! He looks so much better in person !

 

[Shropt]

He pretty much looks exactly like the prototype on Sideshow's site. They've really kicked up the paint apps lately.

Agree.

 

[davidw]

Gotta agree - got this on my desk and I just keep looking at it - it's so awesome!

My Chewbacca PF just arrived today. Still in the box, but I'll get him setup tonight.

 

[ambasah]

I opened up mine today and I am very happy with him. The head sculpt and paint apps are especially nice.

Hopefully a new han will be on the way soon.

He's freaking huge next to Shaak Ti.

They did a good job of keeping Chewie in scale. I don't know how "true" his scale actually is, but it looks pretty darn good to me.

 

[Darth Snoopy]

Congrats to everyone getting Chewie!

He's an awesome piece!

Ordered mine through collectibles direct last night, can't wait for these to start shipping in the UK
