He never held a light sabre in the prequel in his DV "costume" so it's OT in my book.

I think everyone else has already said it but I will again!! Get Vader then Maul then Chewie. I have them all (well Chewie is on his way back to Gentle Giant for a replacement as he was a factory duff but that's another story) and love them all.

They only look out of scale because of the extremes in characters they have chosen - Big tall guys like Vader and Chewie next to small guys like 3PO and Maul. Once Boba Fett who is taller than Maul is released the scale thing should all come into balance as when viewed all together they should all look exactly right.

I'm odd because I actually don't like the Chewie statue, The body is fine but the face sculpt seems off. It'd look MUCH better, though, if they had painted his "mustache" a dark, dark brown like they did on the statue box picture and the upcoming mini bust.

Chewbacca is a good statue. Why has GG not made a Han Solo yet?

The same with C3PO why has GG not made R2D2 yet?

Chewie looks great, IMO is the best "furry" statue on the market, GG did an excellent job on the soft parts where the fur is longer, otherwise it would be too fragile and impossible to produce. The likeness is great, just like in the movie.
