AIBU to want a Mandalorian "Child" soft toy for Christmas?

I know, I am a very grown woman - although young for my years 😂 - but am totally besotted with Grogo! 🥰🥰🥰. He is just the most stunning little guy ever created for tv and my heart just melts each time he is on the screen. 😍😍😍 (I'm not even a Star Wars fan!)

Feel free to tell me to grow up/get a life etc. but if you are planning on buying one of these for your DC at Christmas, their gift would not be safe around me. 🤣🤣🤣

Please tell me I am not the only person suffering from this obsession.

Yanbu! Grogu is too cute. I love the bit wear Mando finds out his name and keeps saying it to him to get a reaction. If it does that I want one!
—also want a Mando too—

I think you've all gone insane Grin

GooodMythicalMorning · 14/12/2020 18:02

Grogu is super cute. I sent dh a link with a Grogu hoody on but I dont think he's taken the hint

IsFinnRogersDead · 14/12/2020 18:03

shash1982 i can't see it - have they sold out?

Purplecatshopaholic · 14/12/2020 18:11

My wonderful DP bought me one for Christmas - he was so chuffed with himself he gave it to me last week, and I am in luuuurrrrvvvve. Never watched or been interested in Star Wars but the Mandalorian has me hooked! Love my Baby Yoda - he’s currently getting acquainted with my dog....

IsFinnRogersDead Ah, it's not showing up on their searches now so looks like they must have.

Can I just say, RIP to the original Mandalorian, the wonderful Jeremy Bulloch who's died today aged 75.

The original Boba and a truly lovely man. His presence will be greatly missed at conventions.

Anyone seen the latest episode? 😭

SistersOfPercy · 18/12/2020 16:23

Yes, I cried buckets.
Without spoiling it, following the timelines (this takes place just after ROTJ) then the future aint looking rosy....

Anyway, on a happier note, my Grogu got in the spirit today.

I’m a bit heartbroken by the ending

Absolutely!

I literally sobbed. Grogu is so expressive!! 🥰

Thought the cgi work with the unexpected guest was fab!

Surely Baby Yoda will be back for S3 or, better still, give him his own show. 🙏🙏🙏

It's amazing 🤩

My other half had to hold me all the way through, even he shed a single man tear! It was heartbreaking and perfect.

I would like actual Mando for xmas, I have zero interest in Pedro who plays him, but mando is so so sexy.

I bought the mando adidas trainers for my partner, I also bought a custon mando outfit from etsy in his size...definitely worth the price tag

I have a little stuffed Grogu and I may have persuaded my five year old that he needed the animatronic version...

He was utterly lovely in Narcos Mexico. I've always had a bit of a soft spot for Pedro.

@RufustheSniggeringReindeer

Mines currently watching the telly

(Not a talky moving one)

Where did you get yours from?

We were late to the mandalorian, but I need an animatronic Grogu! I cannot find one anywhere that isn’t EBAY, and I want a genuine one.

Any idea if they’ll make more or I’ll have to risk an EBAY second hand one?

Where are you buying your plush ones from?

RufustheSniggeringReindeer · 13/01/2021 14:31

rainmoon

Mine was amazon, excellent price

Disney store did the same one but much more expensive

RufustheSniggeringReindeer · 13/01/2021 14:33

Ive just checked, our one has a hard head, can’t see one on amazon but looks like zavvi may have one

Looks like the disney store have the moving one for £60

I think...

I'm very late to the party, but also find The Child unbelievably cute.

When I was a child I had an equal fascination with Gizmo!

Cocolapew · 13/01/2021 15:06

This is for you then @middleager, I sent it to DD to try to convince her to watch Gremlins. Apparently it's too scary, she's 23 Hmm
