After almost a year of silence on the matter, the
previously announced & officially licensed "Star Wars Chubbies, Series 1" line was spotted on display at this past weekend's
Hong Kong Toy & Game Fair. Designed by
TADO, these adorable pieces are being produced by
Unbox Industries and
Hot Toys in a series of sets, each comprised of three figures of differing sizes. These are merely painted prototypes and still a work in progress, but we were able to locate detail shots of four of the five sets, missing the Chewbacca-centric one sadly…
Above left is the C-3PO set, which has the large protocol droid figure accompanied by his nearly constant companion, the astromech droid R2D2, as well as a scavenging Jawa, notable for initially selling the pair of droids to Luke's family at the beginning of
A New Hope. Above right we find a trio of Jedi in the Yoda set, the revered staff-wielding master paired with Mace Windu and Obi-Wan Kenobi.
Above left is the bounty hunter set, featuring fan favorite Boba Fett as well as Bossk and Zuckuss. And finally, above right, we have the Jabba the Hutt set, which packs the crime lord's majordomo, Bib Fortuna, and court jester, Salacious B. Crumb, with him.
