Yeah, it's funny, I noticed that too but wasn't worried about it as I hadn't futzed (and it still looks like it would stick out much farther regardless), but after the quick futz it looks completely fine.But look how worse the snout is on the replacement? It's out much further. Personally I think the one on the right looks a lot better.
It explains the second one I got, they are just all different. I saw a US release Chewie in Forbidden Planet in NYC yesterday and it was even darker than the two I have seen so far? Batches?
Great first post. Anyone wanna field this?I've been thinking about buying him for a while now. I have 11 sideshow pieces & no Hot toys. Are they just as good of quality?

^^No mods. Just pushed it down against his shoulder a little bit maybe. In this pose I was trying to make him as tall as possible as I was switching him to the shorter stand and figured he could fit in the detolf like that.
Hot Toys next Stormtrooper variant.
Makes me certain that the next wave this January will be the better ones to have.
People just don't listen to Pix.
I know you're just stirring the pot but honestly I'm seeing more issues with this new batch. That awful "bump" wave which is indented into the forehead fur is becoming an issue. And that lighter head seems to be a one off (so far). I'm just seeing a lot of factory variation and some drops in QC.That head sure looks better than the dark heads that went out initially.

Surprised we have seen only one absolutely hilarious *home styled* one so far.That indent is bad.
But this is the 3rd head that has come out recently lighter. Could just be natural variation, but odd that it seems like all the later ones.
We'll see for certain come January.
Anyway, so many people have combed and washed and pulled their Chewie head to death that the dark hair is the least of the problems.

Chewie doesn't know what that means, but he's interested.
Just waiting for someone to add a Phicen accessory to make their Chewie more authentic.
Why . I don't recall that accessory in any film
Contact SS and see if you can get a head replacement!
