The dam is about to burst when it comes to Baby Yoda merch - toys, plushies, and figurines are due to launch toward the end of May onward. And dammit, they're adorable.
Even though it's been a long time coming, all that Baby Yoda merch isn't far off. Leading the charge is the Baby Yoda Funko Pop range that's arriving between May 20 - July 2020. There are a few versions available, but they're all painfully cute. That includes smaller, cheaper models (such as a Baby Yoda sipping soup or eating a space-frog) and chonky alternatives that are ten inches tall.
Next up are a variety of plushies designed to steal your heart/money/both. Ranging from accurate replicas to a cartoony Disney Store exclusive that looks oh-so huggable, they're difficult to resist and will probably be very popular.
Finally, a range of figurines are available in lots of different styles. There are classic action figures for your desk or a youngling's toy-box, teeny and sweet blister packs with two toys a pop, and hyper-detailed entries from the Black range with bonus accessories. More importantly, they're all pretty affordable.
Although we won't be able to get our hands on most of these until May 20 2020, you can put in a pre-order now to avoid disappointment. And you'll want to; I have a suspicion this Baby Yoda merch will be… well, popular might be an understatement.
We've posted pre-order links for some of our favorites below.
Cheap Baby Yoda merch
Why has it taken this long to get Baby Yoda merch, though? Showrunner Jon Favreau and Disney were reluctant to create toys for the little green rascal ahead of the show's release because they didn't want to spoil the surprise. Now that it's out in the wild, though? It's weapons free on all things Baby Yoda (or 'the Child', as it's known on the show).
There's a lot to love about the live-action Star Wars series, and if you haven't caught up with it yet we can't recommend getting a Disney Plus sign-up enough. Looking for a bargain on it? Check out this cheap Disney Plus deal that gets you the new streaming service, Hulu, and ESPN+ for $12.99 per month.
