cool review...just a piont about the photo used ...it was just a promo shot for the movie with chewie and Han and NOT a still shot of a scene from the movie..check out the photo and then try and spot that scene in the movie and you won't see it.lol
So glad we are getting the proper Chewie and not the one in the promo photos a few months ago. His head here looks a little darker than normal. But the card looks fantastic! Great review!
Good figures with great articulation and good sculpts never become old. Although it’s a repack, the beautiful card makes it even - such a great choice to finally release Chewie on a Star Wars TVC card. Awesome review, again!
I have owned and never opened the TVC TBS Walmart version of Chewie since 2015 and just now opened the box. I always thought, wow he must really lack articulation worse than the 6 inch TBS version.. To my amazement, he blows away the 6 inch version with articulation. He's like one of my favorite figures in TVC now that I've finally opened him.. I opened him, because I noticed the latest one like you are showing is just a re-release. Anyway, can't believe I never opened him until now. lol
Mate, you've done it again! Was wondering if the TVC Chewie was an update of the BS and you've answered it along with another thoughtful review. Cheers!
Cracking card and decent figure , at long last a chewie on proper a star wars chase, fair play to bossk taking on chewie ! rather him than me Lol great review Tim 👌
I think they are. They have already reissued Leia Hoth, Han Echo base, Vader and Luke Jedi Knight with photo real face tech. More will follow I am sure.
@@BossksBounty didnt realise he passed on the 30th of april,just yesterday i saw the han/muddy chewie 2pack and was thinking about peter mayhew(cant help but think of him when i see chewie).yeah sad time right before saga concludes.the guy that plays chewie now is a worthy successor but peter was the chewie we grew up with and adored.
My son just received this in the mail, ordered fro Amazon..... for the life me, well, us, we cannot figure out how to attach the little crossbow piece.... anyone ?
The cardback shows a lot of gold or blonde hair around his eyes and even his forehead so I''m not sure why the figure has such a dark paint job on the new figure's head.
Hit that THUMBS UP button if you like this figure and card back! Thank you!

🥀R.I.P. Peter Mayhem...🙏🏼
Such sad news
He was a huge part of my star wars growing up as a kid... You are finally one with the force MR Mayhew. Rest in peace
Me too mate. Such sad news.
Rest In Peace , Peter Mayhew. The best copilot ever.
Such sad news, he's with the Force now.
Looking forward to it. Love my retro collection one. RIP
This is one of the best looking Chewbacca ever. And you’re right about the card back. It looks absolutely amazing. Great review as usual.
Thats mate
Nice review! Probably going to buy this and the stormtrooper
The best fo the wave. Lando also a great figure, review of that coming tomorrow. Thanks for watching mate.

Thanks guys, looks so good on the card, straight back to 1978

Great card back and glad they got the right figure to boot. RIP Peter Mayhew.
yep RIP to the great man
Looks good Tim! Just out and about but look forward to watching this when home! 👍
Cheers Nick. :-)
R.I.P. Peter Mayhem...🙏🏼 Chewie your home :(
Sad news Peter Mayhew passed at age 74. I met him a few times and he was a great one ! got few autographs from him.. . .
Glad you got to meet him. I have been in the same room as him but never got to meet the great man personally.
I have to ask, how to you consistently keep getting these like literally before anyone else?! Quite amazing actually and is really cool 😀
In the UK some online stores manage to get import stock.
Big improvement on the paint app from the black series i think, again the card is mint.
Great review Tim 👍🏻
Thanks Dave. I am really happy with it, will look so good on the wall with all the other SW chase cards.
Nice figure. Great video Bossk as ever. 👍
Thanks mate!
Funny I requested this one as the next review. Now alas as I write this I found out Peter has died.
Such sad news
Btw Congratulations to passing 2112 subscribers! 🎊
Thanks mate, onwards and upwards!
Super card nice update sorry to hear of Peter mayhews passing
Very Sad news Martin.
Cracking card and decent figure , at long last a chewie on proper a star wars chase, fair play to bossk taking on chewie ! rather him than me Lol great review Tim 👌
haha you clocked the Chewie roar! Thanks Gerard.
@@BossksBountyI'm sure you heard Tim, may he rest in peace, the one and only chewbacca peter Mayhew😪
Yeah heard last night, very sad but I know Peter was in a lot of pain so now is one with the Force.
Card back and figure looks better now versus the Return of the Jedi one.
For sure David, super clear image now.
That fig is amazing...gad i wish they would start at square one and start releasing the original trilogy figs like this all updated
I think they are. They have already reissued Leia Hoth, Han Echo base, Vader and Luke Jedi Knight with photo real face tech. More will follow I am sure.
Have you got the Black Series Chewie from ESB? just got one from John Lewis for fifteen quid, some knockdown price figures there
I don’t unfortunately
@@BossksBounty it was House Of Fraser not JL, It’s ok, good not great
Rip peter mayhew.another legend gone.no ones ever really gone.
That's right no one ever really is. He will live on in everyones memory. Sad times.
@@BossksBounty didnt realise he passed on the 30th of april,just yesterday i saw the han/muddy chewie 2pack and was thinking about peter mayhew(cant help but think of him when i see chewie).yeah sad time right before saga concludes.the guy that plays chewie now is a worthy successor but peter was the chewie we grew up with and adored.
I like the original bow dacaster when they came out in 78
still have mine
Everyone saying Peter “Mayhem” XD
I've got the original chewie 78-85 and the force link with the porg
Nice - me too Brian
I Also had come in the post chewie from shadows of the empire bounty hunter disguise from EBAY loose and complete
R.I.P Chewie
Is this 6 inch figure??
I know he looks huge but no its the Vintage Collection so just 3.75"
My son just received this in the mail, ordered fro Amazon..... for the life me, well, us, we cannot figure out how to attach the little crossbow piece.... anyone ?
Its pretty fiddly and doesnt stay in place very well
The cardback shows a lot of gold or blonde hair around his eyes and even his forehead so I''m not sure why the figure has such a dark paint job on the new figure's head.
I admit I do think the paint job needs to be somewhere in between the two versions.
