I resent the implication Wookiees are sticky and smelly. ;)

In any case, I think the figure is a good attempt at capturing the original look.

Fur is probably a tricky thing to scale down to action figure size.

Wow! That certainly beats the pants off Kenner/Hasbro's previous attempt at a Chewie with fur.

This didn't even have a body, it was bendable wire underneath like an old Gumby figure!

The less said about Hasbro's tree trunk Chewie, the better...

They're not closed...

The face could be a little lighter, but the body seems spot on. This is probably a prototype, and hopefully they fix that.

I found this picture after typing "star wars multiverse" into Google Images:

While I like that Splinter of the Mind's Eye and the original Marvel comics are placed in their own separate timelines apart from the main EU, I do find it irksome that there's only one EU timeline and no timelines for the different versions of the OT.

 Maybe it would be fine to draw a thread from the PT to the SE-T, but it's completely offensive not to have the OOT set off with no connection to the PT, since there is no continuity between the PT and the OOT.

Also is "Clone Wars Multimedia Project" a reference to the Cartoon Network shorts?

I like how it takes into account 7, 8, & 9, but stubbornly refuses to just make the entire thing a straight line with only the Disney canon.

At least it doesn't pretend the Jedi Prince books should be canon.

The guy who created it admits on his blog that he isn't happy with the decanonization of the EU. Obviously, in his mind, the EU timeline is the primary SW Universe with the Disney canon being a divergent reality.
