After glimpsing the recent filming of the Wookiees Chewbacca (played by Peter Mayhew) and Tarfful (played by Michael Kingma) through the eye of the Hyperspace Webcam, you might have decided that this is the year to create your ultimate Wookiee costume for Halloween.

The character of Chewbacca has been a Star Wars costume favorite for years, and with the coming release of Episode III Revenge of the Sith, fans will be able to choose from a cast of Wookiee characters and warriors.

It's not too early to start your Halloween costume, especially if you plan to dress as a big "walking carpet." To help you plan ahead, or maybe just take a trip down memory lane, here is a gallery of Chewbacca costumes from over the years, submitted by Bantha Tracks readers.
