believe it now

not sure why chewie is wearing a robe. does that mean he was naked in the other movies?

ok, i found it hard to believe that there was such a thing as the star wars holiday special, too.

here's the link to wookiepedia.

from wookiepedia, here's the summary:

The Star Wars Holiday Special was a two-hour television special (including commercials) set in the Star Wars galaxy. It was broadcast one time only on Friday, November 17, 1978 on CBS-TV from 8:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m., Eastern Standard Time (EST). In it, Chewbacca and Han Solo visit Kashyyyk, Chewbacca's home world, to celebrate Life Day. Along the way, they are pursued by agents of the Galactic Empire who are searching for rebels on the planet. The special introduces three members of Chewbacca's family: his father, Itchy, his wife, Malla, and his son Lumpy.

The program also features cameos (although the cameo actors are listed as stars) by other Star Wars characters, including Luke Skywalker, C-3PO, R2-D2, Darth Vader, and Princess Leia (who sings the film's "theme song", set to the music of John Williams' Star Wars theme, near the end). The program is probably best known for an animated cartoon produced by Toronto-based Nelvana that introduces, for the first official time in the Star Wars universe, the bounty hunter Boba Fett. It was the first film produced, in a total of three Star Wars spin-off films. Though the program received excellent ratings for its one-time airing, Star Wars creator George Lucas, who created its original story, reportedly removed his story credit from the special. Despite disagreements over its quality, this film is considered the first canonical sequel to A New Hope.
