Are you one of The Child’s (a.k.a. Baby Yoda’s) many fans? If so, then most likely you are eagerly awaiting more merchandise on the little green guy. Disney has its own merchandise, sure. But third parties, like Hasbro, Build-a-Bear Workshop, and Loungefly, are giving the House of the Mouse a run for their money.
We previously announced some new Baby Yoda merchandise. This year, the Force is even stronger for fans who want to celebrate their love of all things Star Wars. New merchandise tied to beloved stories and characters in a galaxy far, far away were revealed today, just ahead of New York Toy Fair.
Sought-after items featuring the Child from Hasbro, Funko, Mattel, Build-A-Bear, shopDisney.com | Disney store, and more, some of which went on pre-sale starting late last year, are expected to hit shelves and doorsteps starting next month.
The Child Figure
Releasing Spring 2020, the Star Wars: The Black Series – The Child figure ($9.99) stands 1.12-inches tall. As expected from Hasbro’s Black Series, the figure has multiple points of articulation as well as highly detailed features. The Child also comes packaged with a bone broth bowl, toy knob, and Sorgan frog.
Star Wars: The Bounty Collection – The Child
Star Wars: The Bounty Collection – The Child ($7.99 each) includes six different 2.25-inch tall Baby Yoda figures, all being extremely adorable. They are available individually after release but only sold as 2-packs ($15.99) for pre-sale. Which one is your favorite?
The Child 6.5-inch Figure
The 6.5-inch figure ($19.99) of The Child is, well, less cute than the other figures. But if a larger, articulated figure is what you are after then this is a good bet. Releasing Spring 2020.
The Child Talking Plush
The talking plush ($24.99) has posable arms as well as a plush body that makes character sounds when squeezed. It comes with its own bone broth bowl and Sorgan frog. Releasing Spring 2020.
The Child Animatronic Edition
The Child Animatronic Edition ($59.99) makes over 25 sound and motion combinations, all with a simple touch on its head. Sounds include excited noises, giggles, and general baby talk. The Child can move its head up and down, ears back and forth, or eyes open and shut. It can even “harness the power of The Force” by closing its eyes, raising its arm, and sighing. And since it is just a little guy, laying it on its back will put it to sleep and its eyes will close. Releasing Fall 2020.
Board Games
There are Mandalorian-themed board games, too! Operation: Star Wars The Mandalorian Edition ($19.99) tasks you with removing items, like froggy and a mudhorn egg, from Baby Yoda’s grasp. Releasing Spring 2020.
In Trouble: Star Wars The Mandalorian Edition ($14.99), you play as either The Mandalorian, Cara Dune, IG-11, or Kuill in race to rescue Baby Yoda (accomplished by getting all four pawns in your home base). Releasing Spring 2020.
Darksaber Electronic Lightsaber
Another Mandalorian toy is the Darksaber Electronic Lightsaber ($29.99). It features light effects as well as battle sounds when swung. Releasing Spring 2020.
Other Hasbro Star Wars toys
There are also two additions ($9.99 each) to the Star Wars: Galaxies of Adventure line, the 5-inch Ahsoka Tano figure and the 5-inch Ahsoka Tano’s Storm Trooper figure. Both feature multiple points of articulation. The former includes two accessories while the latter includes one. Releasing Spring 2020.
Build-a-Bear Workshop
Build-a-Bear Workshop has finally made an official announcement about their plush The Child! And while you can’t purchase it yet, if you visit the listing, you can sign up for the newsletter to be notified when the toy is available. No word on release date or price as of yet.
Loungefly
And finally, Loungefly announced this morning that this fine specimen of a mini-backpack will arrive this June. The zipper pull is a frog!
