  Wookiee - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Wookiees who use their claws in a fight are called "madclaws" and exiled from Wookiee society.
Wookiees also appeared as native forces in Star Wars Battlefront II, and as the Wookiee Warrior, but the model was changed to that of Tarfful, the Wookiee leader seen in Revenge of the Sith.
Wookiees are referred to in popular culture through a variety of formats ranging from Ralph Wiggum's "I bent my wookiee" as popularized in The Simpsons to slightly less direct parodies such as that of Barfolomew in the film Spaceballs.

While the creamy version has been more widespread to date (as seen in the photos), when we saw the darker version, he appeared alongside his brother in equal numbers-- we are not sure how they are packed in cases.
