Tarfful was a Wookiee Chieftain who fought in the Battle of Kashyyyk during the Clone Wars. He was an old friend of Chewbacca. Tarfful was also the chief of Kachirho at least until the Battle of Kashyyyk during the Great Jedi Purge. He had good relations with Yoda and was behind him for the entirety of the battle. Tarfful, while not a general, carefully planned out the placement of troops and warriors with Jedi Masters Luminara Unduli and Quinlan Vos

How tall is Peter Mayhew?

 

There have been reports of Mayhew and Too Tall being seen in the same room. Apparently they don't do off-the-peg Wookie outfits to fit him. Wonder why...? :blush:

 

Timelord, Too Tall, Mayhew and Kingmar.. Malcolm's gonna need a wider lens if they want the feet in :P

 

At the time of the original Trilogy - Peter was 7ft 3in - however time is a fickle thing and Stuart (TT) swears he is catching him up but Peter is one of two guests I have seen where Stuart has to look up (the other being Ian Whyte).

I wonder about Richard Kiel?

 

I think operations and age have taken their toll on Peter and Dave Prowse (to a even greater extent).

Indeed - but I haven't witnessed a TT/Jaws meet so I really can't comment!!
