Chewie looks almost exactly as I pictured him.  I had assumed they'd go with

(...) I'm not too happy. Chewie's fur seems to be done in the same style as the EP1 hair pieces (and probably the Leia hair piece), which I'm too keen on. I'd rather have hair (and fur) done in the same style as the Town hair pieces. And what about (...) (25 years ago, 16-Feb-00, to lugnet.starwars)

Check it out at rebelscum.com here: (URL) very well done, if I say so myself! Also, check out the interior of the Falcon, and it looks like the MTT comes with a half dozen battledroids! Kevin (25 years ago, 14-Feb-00, to lugnet.starwars)
