This makes my blood boil. Thank you George Lucas for the biggest travesty in motion picture history, aside from Ewan and Natalie being involved

Gree's armor is pretty sweet though.

Geez, I don't know if this has been commented before, but I rewatched the original STAR WARS (1977) and I realised that there is some nudity on it!

Chewie apparently takes off his ammo belt, bandolier, when they are getting ready to depart Mos Eisley in a hurry... he only seems to put it on again, once they are jumping into light speed.

Scandal!

I have bought this guy.

I am slowly reading this thread, thank you guys for the futzing tips... I will get better slowly... this is how my wookie looks so far.

 

[Hydeous]

Love the poses. Especially 3po

Playing with my Wookie...

About 30 mins of combing makes a HUGE difference. Getting better and better:

No paint/makeup, just the natural hair on the figure. It's a TON better than what you see when you open it. Which looks like a monkey

Now that's a great lookin wookie! No paint modification on mine either. Just a lot of futzing. A small flat head screw driver like the one on a micro Leatherman (along with a bit of water) works wonders on breaking up the glue around the muzzle. Another quick and easy thing to do is taking the bandolier strap off, put a T-shirt over it and iron it. It will make the sling hang naturally.

Thanks.

Ok, I'll try the iron thing, thanks for the tip.

I'm brand new to the Tapatalk/uploading pics on here from my phone. FINALLY figured it out. I know the lighting is off/bad. I'm gonna try and take some better pics of my Chewie....those older ones I uploaded don't capture my hard work[emoji853]

Here's mine. I love this guy!

 

[Craig Walker]

I'm sure this has been discussed, but one 'fatal flaw' in the HT design is how the hair is glued to the face. The hair *should* originate from his eyes, going downward, not from his muzzle. Makes it difficult/impossible to get 100% correct look.

Still a killer figure, and one of my favorites.

 

[Adam1138]

Agreed Craig. But I still think the way this figure turned out is a minor miracle in itself. I never thought as a kid back in 77 that we would ever get anything as good as this. A lot of my dreams are slowly becoming realities with this HT Line.

 

[Craig Walker]

Agreed

 

[MAC83]

Anyone have any ideas how to make the eyes pop more?

 

[Craig Walker]

The eyes themselves or area around eyes?

If you look at most movie stills, you can't see his eyes that well. The figure definitely needs highlight to the hair, via paint or makeup, to make the eye area look right.
