Chewquila is a custom figure designed and produced in the USA by Scott Kinnebrew of Forces of Dorkness. This piece is based on the 8-inch tall Muttpop Tequila vinyl toy and features a handmade bandolier, resin bowcaster and the furry Wookiee suit treatment.
A limited number of Chewquilas will be made, and they will be offered at a price of $200 each with preorders beginning June 7th, 2015 at 8PM EST. The preorder window will be 2 weeks long, after which no further preorders will be taken. Scott will complete the work approximately 2 weeks after the preorder window closes.
"Heavy Metal Wookie" is a one-off custom based on an original vintage Kenner Chewbacca figure. He stands 4.5 inches tall, includes a base and has a removable guitar which attaches to his back with magnets.
He was inspired by the eye sculpts I did on MegaSeth, which I thought would look really cool detailed into Chewbacca's hair. "Chewy has gone heavy...his new weapon of choice, an electric guitar!"
Heavy Metal Wookie will go up on Lisa's site, ibreaktoys.com, on Thursday 10pm GMT (5pm EST) for £35 plus shipping.
