About This Video

Sideshow’s life-size collectible of The Child recreates Grogu’s appearance from The Mandalorian. Our original review praised the face, fine hair and fabric outfit. This video accompanies that review of the production collectible.

Face, Hair and Robe

The sculpt looks upward, with wrinkles around the cheeks and ears. Soft red tones in the green skin and glossy brown eyes were highlights of the review, along with the fine gray hair.

The head moves slightly left and right, while the body, arms and legs are fixed. The fabric robe can be adjusted around that sculpt.

The Razor Crest Control Knob

The silver control knob attaches magnetically to the hand. The set also includes a display base with a peg that fits into one foot.

Our reviewer liked the finished piece’s expression and paint. This is a display collectible with limited head movement, so it offers a different experience from a fully articulated Grogu figure.

What the Close-Ups Reveal

The written review describes freckles, wrinkles and a reddish finish inside the ears, along with glossy eyes and yellowed fingernails. These small paint choices keep the face and hands from looking flat beside the textured robe. Grogu’s expression also points upward, so the angle from which you view him changes the presentation considerably. A very high shelf can hide the face that is the main reason to choose this piece. The packaging includes character artwork, an assembly guide and a letter; they are part of the original presentation if you are checking a complete boxed example.
