Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

Not bad. Helmet seems a bit off to me though.

Wow, I didn't know that Koto made bobbleheads!

In all seriousness, over 200 usd for what looks like a 40 buck prize figure is just ridiculous. Grogu looks awful, and the helmet is just hilariously huge. Shame on you Koto.

Looks much better than Iron Studios' 1:4 effort so far to me.

I think that's incredibly harsh. I think overall it looks great!

Grogu looks really good imo especially at 1/7 scale.

Proportions are a little off but i don't think it's terrible at all and i think he'll look more than fine in hand. Compared to what GG have offered this is my favourite of the 1/7 statues so far for sure, it's much more complete, good pose and moving Grogu about changes the look of the statue, i like him especially hiding behind Mando.

This shot especially looks great imo!

I just can't help but to compare this to the 1/6 Hot Toys piece, which was only around 50 bucks more than this and IMO waaay better looking.

There's little to none visible texturing in the areas that are supposed to be cloth, the proportions feel off, Grogu looks like a gacha-figure... That's just my two cents. I'll stop complaining now as I'm clearly not even considering getting this piece

I quite like it, too. I wish it would have been at least 1:6, though.

I think it looks good, and makes me wonder if other characters get Kotobukiya treatment...
