YouTube channel M.M's Prop Shop upgraded a Home Depot Chewbacca animatronic, transforming it from a "janky" Christmas decoration into a screen-worthy replica. The makeover included brushing and untangling its hair, painting around the eyes, re-hiding fur seams, and significantly upgrading its bandolier with fabric paint and leather. Additionally, the generic base was replaced with an Imperial-themed one, and a 3D-printed bowcaster was added to complete Chewie's iconic look, replacing the original candy cane and Santa hat[1].
