YODA meets GROGU (My 1:1 V6 Yoda piece)

[Cyberman]

Sideshows Baby Grogu arrived a few weeks back but he had to meet Yoda.

Indeed; cool

Grandpa, tell me story about that whining Jedi again...

Great photos! This really shows how much they exaggerated the "baby eyes" on Grogu.

I think they did a great job at capturing the "baby eyes". If you look at puppies or other baby animals and even humans, you'll see that the eye feature seems bigger than the ones we/they have in adulthood. That's why we find these cute and attractive. Beside, Yoda is very, very old compared to Grogu

Yeah, but the reason they "seem" bigger, is because they have proportionately much smaller heads, while their eyes are the same size as adults (so the irises seem bigger, though they aren't actually. But because Yoda is already quite small, they had to exaggerate the iris size. In other words, this race either have shrinking irises as they age, or Grogu is a slightly different (sub)race than Yoda. Obviously overthinking this... but that's what we fan do!

Wow—very nicely done, indeed! Very lifelike!

Just for fun and giggles...

I personally think it’s just his species has a little variation in head shape and size, maybe they’re body proportions age and grow differently. Just guessing at this point. I do think sideshow did a great job for the budget price range on this guy
