THE 'HOLIDAY SPECIAL' AT 40: THE LONG CLIMB!


It's dangerous and dirty work for Chewbacca and his new 'friend' Boba Fett as they climb the side mountains leading to the Imperial-occupied Panna City, amidst their search for a cure to the mysteriously afflicted Han Solo and Luke Skywalker back at the Falcon, in this great Nelvana Animation moment from the ever-popular animated segment - The Faithful Wookiee (apparently written by Lucas himself) of the 1978 The Star Wars Holiday Special.

I believe that the image is not of the Panna Dragon but a Paar's Ichthyodont, the creature Boba Fett was riding in "The Story of the Faithful Wookie" where he rescued Luke and Co. from a Panna Dragon by shooting it with an Amban phase-pulse blaster.
