is there a body under the cloth jacket or is it just a head and hands with cloth jacket and plastic base also does any of the limbs have articulation

[@bobafett7386]

Is Grant the creator of The Child?

@@zarlieck Probably not the creator but he did work on The Child's controls. Robotics, animatronics, and electronic controls were his thing.

[@Crushenator500]

$375... Honestly I was expecting this to be like $2k. Still a little rich for my blood though.

[@futonmonkey82]

Right? But at $375... it seems "cheap"!!

[@TheMijman]

I know! It's loads cheaper than I was expecting

[@mbillie420iphone]

Its just a head and hands seems like it with the cloth jacket and plastic base was hoping for fully sculpted body under cloth or at least some feet sticking out I still pre ordered one though

[@CodeMonkeX]

It sucks, because I know it's a reasonable price for how good it looks, how much development went into it, but I still can't bring myself to drop basically $400 on something like this.

A fantastic piece that will be very popular , museum quality for sure . The prototype is spot on with a great retail price , the challenge now will be reproduce this thousands of times while maintaining good QC and true to the prototype .

[@timr3956]

While a great video, I’m somewhat disgusted with many of the follow commenters and how they’re attacking the poor sideshow employee. In regards to her using the name” The Child” and the people saying she’s pushing the mouse’s agenda? Seriously? Even Bob Iger was chastised for referring to him as anything else. The Child is what they wish to brand the character as, and they’re just being compliant as licensees. Re her wearing a mask? It’s called courtesy. Masks shouldn’t be political, they’re just common sense right now. It’s for his protection as much as it is hers. Does it bother you because you think the virus is a hoax, or because you’re sad it because they’re sad little incel? She’s there to do her job, not appease creeps perving on geeky girls online. And insulting her for not knowing everything? She’s not a dictionary, and she’s not a fake geek. She’s one of many people working their butts off to bring you a convention experience that you can Benito from home. Excuse her if she’s tired and her recall isn’t 100% Y’all need to grow up, cause you’re acting like children. The figure itself is great, the host is great, and Sideshow Con is great.

[@peterkelley6344]

Very Well Said.

[@menamgamg]

They are just ungrateful little shits who expect everything to be given to them for free. They don't realize there are real people behind making stuff like this happen, who just want to do a good job. They have no ambition of their own so they can't understand, and instead they blame it on "the mouse" forcing them in some way xD Because that's the only reason to work apparently.

[@RadektheRadical]

I applaud you for this!! speaking truths, hopefully one immature adult will get their senses brought to them.

[@menamgamg]

@@RadektheRadical the sad reality though is that most don't care about truth at all. All that matters is what other people think and what commonly is agreed upon to be the truth.

[@bradley19822]

It is The Child though simply because the sideshow employee knows that yoda was still alive during the mandolorian. So it's not Baby Yoda. Its The Child.
