That's the negro Chewie version.

Definitely not lit very well, just a quick iPhone pic!

Lighting notwithstanding, that really looks GREAT!
I'm still undecided on what Han I want to buy to go with Chewie. Even though people have said the Hot Toys Han looks great in person, I'm still a bit unsure about the headsculpt on him. It doesn't seem quite right to me for some reason. I was leaning towards getting Hoth Han from Sideshow since I like the Hoth gear, but at the same time the Hot Toys Han might look better with Chewie. I have a $25 off coupon I can use towards Hoth Han, but it won't work for the Hot Toys version. Choices, choices...
Apparently HT made a very limited number of Chewblaccas -- a total of 7 -- and they are worth over $1,200 each. See their Facebook page.

Go with SS. With the coupon, you're saving money already. IF (and it's a big if) you are willing to part with "unnecessary" things, the extra head, Bespin jacket, and Bespin shirt could conceivably get you back another $80-$90 dollars. Nets it down to a pretty good deal.
The HT Han is really starting to grow on me, but unfortunately Chewie seems to look best when futzed into his ESB or ROTJ self, which just doesn't fit as well with that Han in my opinion. Which is the main reason I'm holding back on getting him at the moment.
Not to mention that I've already got a Hoth and Bespin Han on my shelf, and am not sure if I really need a third...

I must be way down the SSC list, the last notice I received for the two pack said it was moved up after it had been moved back...and that notice was early in the summer...if they are already shipping some people and putting others on notice...

Just display Han solo (note the lowercase "s") at the back of the Falcon cockpit.
That's what I plan to do.** using a high-res photo of the back of the cockpit as a backdrop.
They both look really good. My first impression was that Chewie was hideous out of the box but he's good. The eyes are a little wonky and the muzzle sticks out, as has been said before. I give them solid 8/10.

Did anyone think we'd ever get a 1/6 Chewie with real fur? This is a glorious age for 1/6 Star Wars!!!!
Are you guys flex pay? I think so far only some flex payers have gotten the set.

I agree. I get pretty excited imagining what my shelves are going to look like at this time next year.

I'm full pay. I'm pretty sure only flex payers have gotten this as well.
I did have a pretty big smile when pulled him out of the box. Last time i owned a Chewie was over 30 years ago and it was nothing like this. No it's not perfect but it's still pretty damn awesome.
