I was at a local Savers thrift store earlier and I stumbled upon this item.


At first glance it took me awhile to recognize what exactly it was but then I soon recognized this thing sort of resembles Chewbacca! Taking note of the headset and the bandoleer I just knew this has gotta be Chewie! But then I found another one!

I realized upon closer inspection that they are lamps, I plugged each of them in a socket before I purchased both and they work just fine.

Now that i'm home I just took pix and plugged them in, I noticed they have separate on/off switches and there is a lighting pattern as well!

light up chewie's

Although there is no label of WHEN and WHICH company produced these items, they appear to be identical and yes, variants of each other. :shocked:

The first one which I refer to as "regular" Chewie

He has the following:
clear eyes
black streaks of paint on his face
black headset.
This chewie lights up with multi-colors from red, green, yellow and blue! lights.
On the base of his right hand (your left) there are 2 mini light "jewels" one blue, the other red. Unfortunately the red "jewel" has already been missing when I purchased this.

The second one which I will refer to as "Mud brown" Chewie

[LIST] has a different set of "solid white" eyes, his bandoleer is the same color "Mud brown" as his fur and he sports a black nose and a silver headset.
Under the base of this item it has the words "NIC NAC" scratched on it.


Always two, there are.

Please feel free to browse thru the images I took. I'd like to know when these were made and by which company, maybe some info on how much they could be worth would be awesome as well, any help would be greatly appreciated!
