$20 Baby Yoda - 5 Easy DIY Upgrades, This is the Way

[@TheGardengal638]

I have a beanie butt doll too... I want feet! Thank you for showing the way!

[@sassyd8738]

well a lot of people using reborn stuff to get sorta feet but um nothing like this

[@MissKikkiKat]

Brilliant! For the hands, give Mr Super Clear a go. Test in an unobtrusive place for hold, then, if it works, spray the hands and face, allow to dry, and then use either paint or soft chalk pastels. You'll need to spray MSC between layers. I am going to have to mod my wee baby Grogu using your ideas! Thanks so much!

Hey Bro!, That's good work man, I got a Child of my own for Christmas and I'm thinking of doing the same, I love him so much, he's so cute and baby looking (we all owe some thanks to all the guys that understand Star War fan, like Mr. Favreau and the guys at Lucas films) that I didn't have the Heart to modify him, but watching this vid, you have convinced me to upgrade him too, oh, and yes you should weather him up . . to make him more lively. Good work . .Blessings Bro! . .

[@MakeItorBreakItNow]

Thanks Bro, look forward to hear how your child upgrades go. Totally agree with your Mr. Favreau comment, he's helping guide SW in the right direction.

[@gregorxchelin8155]

I converted my grogu into a puppet !

[@MakeItorBreakItNow]

GregorX what I great idea, never thought about that. Do you mean hand puppet or manipulating him externally.

[@goldencollection2926]

Take it next step, nothing to loose. I think its so worthed to make your own creation and realism in this doll. I think it betters in my opinion if head and hands are matching and very original also. Well done

[@joelquintua6825]

Fantastic work! I’d vote for weathering him up. His robes could use a little dirt and grime and his skin tone a dark green wash applied lightly. Maybe some hair strands as well.

Joel, thanks for your vote, pondering all the things I could do to take Grogu to the next level.

[@judithconrad5826]

I am inspired to loosen my babies head and hands, great video

Great video!

[@MakeItorBreakItNow]

Thanks Pedro, glad you liked the video.

[@SandraOrtmann1976]

What a fantastic mod! I will try something similar, but with a reborn body and 3D-printed feet. I am thinking about using a Gorilla tripod or a teddybear skeleton for his bones. Oh, and of course he needs his control knob (I know that a pingpong ball has the required size. But I like your idea much better, it is much more sturdy). And I will be very careful to not tighten the zipties to their limits (I have the same problem with my original Baby Yoda - zero movement).

[@rogerrabt]

Do you think you'll put the STL files for the feet up somewhere? They'd be fun!

[@SandraOrtmann1976]

I will put them thingiverse. Hopefully, that is okay, as I know that several of 3D-printed Grogu feet are sold on etsy. But as these are unlicensed products, I should be fine for putting up a free file. Hope they won't sue me or something...you have to be careful with that these days.

[@misssara7914]

Would love to know how it turned out! Is he able to sit and stand?

[@SandraOrtmann1976]

@@misssara7914 Sitting is no problem, but you really have to balance him to be able to stand. His feet are somewhat uneven, but that is fine with me. Also, I managed to put way too much hair on his head. I guess I will thin them out a bit in the future...although he really looks cute with a bit more of fine, white hair.

[@sketchboy01]

Sweet upgrade! The simply limited twist articulation with the PVC was great.

Amazing job, really like it!! I make some shot stop motion animation with my Mattel Grogu, and it is not comfortable that I can't pose his hands and head...( I use a wire though but outside) Thought about his upgrade...but..
