In a word, yes. After a delay due to a reworking of the packaging, Chewbacca is finally available in this 6&#8243;scale and it is impressive all around. The sculpting of the fur is very well done &#8211; using a technique we&#8217;ve seen implemented on the 3-3\/4&#8243; versions of the character. The color is pretty good as well with varying shades of brown to add visual interest and to break up the overall tone of the figure. Joints are well hidden and most have a nice range of motion despite the hair.<\/p>\n<p><strong>CONS: <\/strong>Like most Chewbacca\/Wookiee figures, the head movement is limited by\u00a0the sculpt of the hair &#8211; resulting in only a few degrees of rotation left to right. Hands are very stiff so getting the figure to hold his weapon\u00a0can be a bit of a chore but nothing insurmountable. The bowcaster limbs fall off easily if bumped (I would have liked a strap for the bowcaster as well.) The facial expression, while nice, is a bit too specific and an alternate, non-growling head would have been a great inclusion.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.yakfaceforums.com\/TGuide2004\/html\/TBS\/6inch\/04_chewbacca.html\">Head to the toyguide<\/a>\u00a0for the full\u00a0image gallery and to judge for yourself whether this figure\u00a0is worth adding to your collection.<\/p>\n<p>You can also weigh in with your impressions on the figures we add to our toyguide on\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/pages\/Yakfacecom\/202559486798?ref=mf\">facebook<\/a>\u00a0and in our\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.yakfaceforums.com\/\">forums.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The\u00a0Yakface Toyguide\u00a0updates resume today\u00a0with the addition of\u00a0Chewbacca\u00a0from the\u00a0Black Series\u00a0line of 6\u2033 figures.
