Hot Toys: The Mandalorian The Child Life-Size Figure

[dukefett]

Is it coming with different faces like groot ?

It was shown with two different faces at their store, you'd figure they'd let us know though since that would help orders.

Too bad it doesn?t have two different heads instead of swappable ears. I want this, but not with those ear seams.

Knowing HT they will release a deluxe version with a second sculpt

From a post on OSR:

Just paid the new store a visit.

To answer some of the questions:

1. Baby yoda

Staff said Baby yoda does not have multiple head sculpt. The reason why the mouth looks different is because the mouth is stretchable. Meaning you can open it or close it with your hands however you like.

But since this is not final, there is no announcement on the changes yet and we won’t know for sure until there’s announcement or when final product is out.

Lol yikes!

 

[Hoody999]

Damn, stretchable mouth. That I'd like to see.

Sure it's questionable with potential cracking depending on the material. Perhaps that's what they are testing now ??

edit : Don't know if I actually believe that post about stretchable mouth at all to be honest.

 

[davejames]

Yeah I'm not sure that's such a good idea...

 

[jkno]

What if baby Yoda bites you if you put your fingers in his mouth?

So is the jaw movable too?

This is exactly what made me believe that this idea of a moveable mouth is BS.

Will his legs/hips be articulated so he can sit and drink his soup?

I'm probably in the minority here, but prefer this over SS, ear seams and all.
No over-pink, sculpt looks spot on, and the way the robe sits on him is very screen accurate. SS shows too much neck, and despite having a full body, robe looks deflated. HT used different fabric which looks like a better choice overall.

That's because nobody is futzing it properly and just showing it straight out of the box, if you watch Justin's video he futzes the collar properly.

And apparently the pink rubs off easily enough so people are toning it down the pink.

 

[Darth Lam]

How are they toning down the pink?

Rubbing it off with their fingers. Which is odd because what, no clearcoat or some paint seal..?

The HT has better likeness.

Hot Toys has nowhere near the better likeness imo, the Sideshow version is literally made in partnership with Legacy Effects, who created The Child . Hot Toys looks like a doll. Sideshows looks like the real deal.

Totally agree. They got the actual source.

Key word - "..IMO.."

One hundo agree with you. Partnership with Legacy or not, Legacy didn't manufacture it, and, per usual, SS dropped the ball.

Well yeah, its all subjective. You thinking HT is better is an opinion, not a fact either.
