Love those dynamic shots. Can almost picture the next scene, as the arm is pulled off and smoke and sparks fly!
Don't know if Supermad will ever make a 1/6 Bionic Bigfoot, to go with this figure.
However Chewie in your shots is ironically a fitting stand-in for Bionic Bigfoot.
As back in 1977 before Chewie hit the shelves his original 3.75" line prototype stand-in was a mock-up Bionic Bigfoot figure.
(from the Six Million Dollar Man Dual Launch Drag Set (how that even made sense is a 70s toy thing, but it did!).
Bionic Bigfoot^
First Chewie prototype
And his 12" scale (actually 15") figure "Space Wookie"! mock up for the Kenner 1978 Catalog, was again a re-purposed and painted stand-in Bionic Bigfoot.
So first Bionic Bigfoot stood in for Chewie, now you have Chewie stand in for Bionic Bigfoot-

The circle is now complete!
Everyone cites Joseph Campbell, Frank Herbert, Flash Gordon, Kurosawa, etc. yet Lucas like everyone else on Feb 1, 1976 was clearly watching the zeitgeist altering event that was
Six Million Dollar Man meets Space Bigfoot!
One became Indiana Jones the other Chewbacca. Even referenced an arm pulled out of it's socket.
The Bigfoot episodes, gave us some of the most
funbelievable lines of dialog, set-ups and plot ever written in fiction.
What a set up! You can't make this stuff up, ...oh wait, they did!
And my 10yo brain was riveted
