CHEWBACCA
Kenner molded Chewbacca as an unclothed, brown-furred Wookiee for its original first twelve Star Wars figures, carded on the debut 12-back packaging with four points of articulation at the shoulders and hips. He comes with a bowcaster, the crossbow-style rifle he wields as co-pilot of the Millennium Falcon throughout A New Hope. The 12-back card carried no character biography or descriptive text, leaving the sculpt and accessory to carry the character.

About This Figure
Chewbacca from Kenner's Vintage Collection line (Modern Era).
Hasbro's deliberate throwback to the Kenner card back — 3.75-inch scale with super-articulation and vintage-style packaging that doubles as display art. Flips between fan-favourite demand spikes.
Chewbacca's Kenner vintage figure (1978) — with its furry texture and bowcaster — is one of the most tactilely distinctive original Star Wars figures; his lack of English dialogue across all Star Wars films has paradoxically made him one of the most universally recognized characters, and the Black Series Chewbacca figures have attempted with varying success to capture the layered fur texture that made the vintage figure memorable despite its simplified sculpt.
