A Life-Size Baby Yoda Replica Is Now Available To Preorder

The breakout star of Star Wars: The Mandalorian was undoubtedly Baby Yoda, the baby creature who obviously comes from the same species as Yoda and Yaddle from the film series. Baby Yoda (referred to as "The Child" in the series) has already been announced for Build-A-Bear and has its own toy range, but for the truly dedicated, there's a bigger version coming.

No Caption Provided

Sideshow Collectibles is releasing a $350 life-size replica of "The Child," which will stand 16.5" tall. It's a mixed-media statue that stands on a small black platform, and while it won't coo or use the Force like the one of television, it's still pretty adorable. It's holding the little shifter knob that it grows so attached to in the series, and the baby's head is covered in a fine fuzz of hair.

It's not cheap, but this looks like a pretty authentic replica of the character. They're not expected to ship until the period between August and September 2020--an exact date has not been set.

It's a bit cheaper than the $5 million that the actual puppet used in the series cost--but then, maybe this version won't look quite as authentic cradled in George Lucas' arms.

The Mandalorian will return in fall 2020 for a second season. Barring a huge time jump, Baby Yoda should be returning, too.

And on the October 30 episode of TNT's weekly wrestling show, AEW Dynamite, Omega showed off his love for Undertale . Before he entered the ring, his video package played a 16-bit cutscene that was very reminiscent of the game, featuring a yellow and red disembodied head, which is totally a knock at the New Japan Pro Wrestling's logo--a company Omega wrestled for--explaining Omega left all his friends and now, he's all alone. This includes a silhouette of Omega's former tag team partner, Kota Ibushi. You can check out the video for yourself below. The sound effects and dialogue from the end of that section are taken directly from Undertale. After the video package ended, Omega entered wearing a Sans mask, while Megalovania--the song from the game--played in the arena. Surprisingly, this worked incredibly well as entrance music for one of t...
