There's a snow trooper!! oh wait it's chewy. I told you not to play the snow!
Don't eat yellow snow.
I can describe the illusion created by his face printing with just two characters:
D:
He's made from peppermint! Delicious!
I have this minifigure! One of my favorites!

I think more like nougat, but it would probably be peppermint-flavored.
I have this one. It is a very nice fig.
@Ridgeheart: No "Cocaine Wookie"...which would be a VAST bit better than anything Dismal/Not-Lucas-film's given us to this point...:)
Hmmm...*side thought*: Now I want a brown 'Cookie Monster'...why..."Hardware Wars":

(Funny story: Saw H.W. BEFORE I saw S.W....also saw "Smokey and the Bandit" first too.:D)

I dunno. Lately I've been reading up on some Warhammer 40k lore due to outsider curiosity, and let's just say they take some... deliberate liberties with the application of "blessing."
I believe this was interpreted in some LEGO Star Wars episode or other as Chewbacca being frozen near-solid after arriving to scout out Echo Base on Hoth.
Oh jingle bells,
Tarkin smells,
The Falcon flew away!
Medals and more on Yavin 4
because Luke’s X-Wing saved the day!
Best christmas themed rehash figure.
Oh, that's the elusive Italian Chewbacca!
Where the wookies are bigfoots, this guy would be a yeti.
Or the coloring book version of a wookie.
Snow way! This is such a "cool" Minifig!

The albino Wookiee occurred to me too, but I’m not sure it’s a blessing in fiction. All the characters I can think of with albinism have flawed or suspect personalities: Elric of Melniboné, Silas, the Matrix Twins, the Invisible Man and The Albino from ‘The Princess Bride’.
Abominable!
It's Attichitcuk ("Itchy") from the Star Wars Holiday Special!
Well, I bet he's chewy.
It's the Abominable Snowman! Better run Bugs Bunny, because all he wants out of life is a pet bunny rabbit!
"I will name him George and love him and squeeze him and pet him and keep him warm like a mother hen..."
I once used this for a minifig photo contest. I put it in hot chocolate.
It was a Chewie Marshmallow.
I didn't win, but I'm proud of the visual pun.

""All people of this particular skin-colour are evil" sure is a bold look, but is it a good look, you think?"

Truth is, as ever, stranger than fiction. And profoundly more disappointing.
