Candace Payne, the “Chewbacca Mum”, visited Hasbro’s headquarters in Rhode Island along with her family for the unveiling of her action figure. Hasbro’s CEO, Brian Goldner, personally unveiled the custom action figure in front of a large crowd. The event was also a meet and greet for Chewbacca Mum’s fans; some of them brought their own Chewbacca masks and they also took photos of the viral star.

The action figure itself has a removable Chewbacca mask as well as 13 different catchphrases, one of which is the infectious laugh that Payne had during the video.

Here’s a photo of Payne thanking Hasbro for the action figure as well as the warm welcome that they received.

Thanks SO much, HASBRO. You literally rolled out the red carpet for me and my family. Thanks for making play so much fun!
