Disney might just drop some Baby Yoda merch before the holidays, after all
Aux Features The Mandalorian
Jon Favreau, the Mandalorian head honcho, ruined Christmas for kids and adult nerds everywhere when he revealed that, to ensure the sanctity and surprise of breakout star Baby Yoda would remain intact, Disney chose not to mass-produce any merch based on the pointy-eared little buddy. So despondent were fans that they set about making their own Baby Yoda-themed plushes, tees, and prints.
Vulture put together a pretty great little round-up of off-brand Baby Yoda gear, but they also reported that Disney told them there was “nothing to share at this time” regarding licensed goods. CNBC tells a different story, reporting that the nugget’s mug could appear on apparel and accessories as early as this Friday. They add, via an unnamed source close to the company, that “Amazon, Zazzle, Target, Kohl’s, Macy’s, Hot Topic and Box Lunch” will carry the merchandise, and that toys and plush products will be available in the coming weeks. Excuse us as we reach for them like Baby Yoda reached for the Mandalorian’s battered arm.
There’s one snag. It’s unclear at this time when the gear will ship so wise you will be by promising your greedy, Yoda-eyed children nothing.

How long will I have to wait for a Sexy Baby Yoda Halloween costume? Asking for a friend.
Baby [Yoda] It’s Cold Outside
Stay, I really can’t.
“I could have a heart attack and die of not-surprise.”
If you want a Yoda plushie, go to Etsy. Trust me, it’ll be full of them very soon.
Tickle Me Yoda (Yoda Me Tickle?). Squeeze it, he says, “Yo-da Man!” Rastafy him by 10% and they’ll fly off the shelves!
Cabbage Patch Baby Yoda. Who knows? That species might actually be born from a cabbage patch like thing.
Once these things hit the shelves it’s going to be Tickle Me Elmo and Cabbage Patch kids all over again. Every news outlet doing stories about the demand, parents getting into fist fights over the limited store stock, insane resale prices on eBay. All over a stupid toy that will be forgotten about in 6 months.
I demand more sclera, these screenshots keep making it look beady-eyed and it’s freaking me out
Already spotted at Disney Worldhttp://www.disneyfoodblog.com/2019/11/20/wait-did-we-just-spot-baby-yoda-in-disney-world/
That’s a standard yoda plushie someone had fun with. Still cute though.
Yeah, that was there before the Mandalorian first aired.
I just want jammies with Baby Yodas and shit on ‘em.
I want a print of baby Yoda as one of those long night shirts with a matching cap and slippers.
Just have a real baby.
They’ll shit on their jammies, your jammies… all the jammies.All of them.
Deep cut, man. Take your star.
Would you shop at a store called Unpainted Mandalorian?
You wet yourself, you wet yourself! The Mandalorian wet himself!
Disney should buy the Furbie line of toys, reskin them as “The Child”/Baby Yoda/Toy Yoda, and just learn to print money.
Box Lunch will carry the merchandise
Brand name synergy with Baby Yogurt sighted.
the Jews ahve smelled money and are already rushing prodction. don’t worry, you’ll have your toys, goyim.
Of course the Disney overlords were going to do this.
Yes. This is all Disney’s doing. George Lucas would never flood the market with any and every piece of Star Wars merchandise imaginable like… Whatever the fuck this is:
That looks like something I need at my desk.
Swear to God, Lucas and Gene Simmons have a bet to see who can out-merch the other.
I really appreciate the effort to not spoil what has become the ONLY ray of light from this year. That said, Baby Yoda has been all over the internet for a bit now. We still don’t know what’s going on. GIVEMEALIFESIZEPLUSHBABYYODA.Necessary:
