2/08/2007 at 17:09
Star Wars fans might like to know that “the finest screen-correct Chewbacca costume head from the Star Wars trilogy known to exist” goes up for sale on eBay Live Auctions tomorrow. Believed to have been worn by British actor Peter Mayhew in more than one of the original trilogy of films, the head comes with an invoice for 3lbs of hair, as well as photographs signed by the actor and Stuart Freeborn, its designer.
Bidding starts at $80k, around £40k. Sadly out of my price range, but there are plenty of other wookie items for sale on eBay UK.
