No love for Chewie??

Chewbacca got arrested in the Ukraine recently after doing some illegal campaigning for a candidate that is listed under the name "Darth Vader".

Apparently this candidate was running for mayor in whatever town this was shot in. He promised to bring the force to lower taxes and stuff like that.

So this guy dressed as Chewbacca got detained and he put up a fight! Apparently his fine wasn't too much, about $8. Unfortunately, he couldn't pay it because his money is in a "intergalactic bank that has no branches on this planet.”

Here's footage of the incident along with a picture of depressed Chewie in court.

 

 


 

I actually had the opportunity to speak with the real Chewbacca aka Peter Mayhew at Geek'd Con! Here's a couple snippets from that!
