First Force Awakens Toy Unveiled! Peter Mayhew Shows Hasbro’s Roaring Chewbacca Mask
 |
I’m not sure why they never thought of this before. In a nine-second video that was retweeted by at least one Hasbro publicist, the man behind the real mask has a friend show off the new mass-market version due in September.
In my day, of course, we did our own Wookiee roars. Kids today are so spoiled.
With something new from #hasbro and help from a few other friends, I'd like to wish you a happy #StarWarsDay. #Maythe4thBeWithYou
