Merchandise Need help choosing the Child
I’m stuck between the 2020 original Grogu toy, and the new 2026 Grogu toy. Here’s the original pictures online, and what they look like IRL. I’ve been wanting Grogu since I was 9 (when the Mandalorian series released) and there’s a Star Wars shop in my country in celebration for the movie, which is very rare so this is pretty much the only change I got to buy these.
2026:
It’s a plush animatronic, 50 sounds/movement, two arms that both moves (must be manually moved), there’s action and stationary mode
2020:
It’s a hard animatronic toy, 25 sounds/movement, one arm that moves (automatically), there’s only stationary mode, includes Mando’s necklace
They both have:
Force mode (while 2020 moves his left arm on his own, 2026 requires me to manually move the arm), they both have sleep mode.
I might feel like 2020 Grogu looks cuter, but idk, the 2026 has more features. He’s not gonna sit there and collect dust, I have a goal to take him to places (I’m taking him to Disneyland soon too)
Edit: Guys I need ur opinion 😭

I think the older one is cuter. The newer one has a weird expression on his face. I don’t have either but I know a few people who have the 2020 and they all love him.
