This 3.75" Chewbacca figure was officially released on April 13th, 2018
The figure was part of the initial launch line up of Solo: A Star Wars Story figures
There were two slightly different versions of this figure on store shelves at the same time, the first released Chewbacca figure had a less detailed bandolier on the back, comparison pic 1 (first release on the left, second regular release on the right), comparison pic 2 (first release on the left, second regular release on the right), comparison pic 3 (first release on the left, second regular release on the right)
This Chewbacca figure is Force Link 2.0 enabled, you can listen to the voice samples on this page above
Chewbacca came with a blaster rifle and a removable plastic cross-chest bandolier
The bandolier is not meant to be taken off the figure, but it's possible
Chewie's body has a groove in the front and the back where the bandolier is meant to be, so if the bandolier is taken off the figure it would look strange
Unfortunately Chewbacca isn't able to hold anything in his right hand, luckily the blaster rifle fits OK into his left hand
The figure stands about 1 1/2 heads taller than a basic 3.75" Han Solo figure
Hasbro painted the figure well with different shades of brown on the fur but they neglected to paint the ammunition shells on the back of the bandolier (they are painted silver on the front)
The neck is ball-jointed, but because of Chewbacca's long plastic hair in the front the figure isn't able to look down
We've experienced no balancing issues while taking pictures of Chewie
