That looks way more impressive than i thought it would be. The movement looks so smooth.
My only complaint might be aimed at the too much pink around the eyes.
I guess this is a must for hardcore Star Wars collectors.

The one custom feature that would be amazing, would be if when the user call's Grogu, Grogu looks in the direction the of the user.

Crazy high price tag.
If these were mass produced at Hot Toys quality level, without the various custom options, i am sure the price could be reduced to around $1500 (or less) ..and they would sell way more units. It is only a rubber head sculpt with motors inside. I wonder how many motors are used?

Who in their right mind is going play $20k or $85k - $100k

People that that kind of money is pocket change to them. They exist I guess in enough numbers to make a working business model to go forward on this. I assume they did their market research. But it's one of the most crazy things I've seen offered.
