All the Toys From ‘The Mandalorian and Grogu’ We Now Want, But Probably Won’t Get

Few franchises in history have as rich a connection to their toys as Star Wars. It’s why, whenever a new Star Wars project is announced, the reveal of its toys can be such a big deal.

In recent days, fans not only got a new trailer for the latest Star Wars movie, The Mandalorian and Grogu, but also a reveal of its first wave of toys. The disconnect, however, was that the toys were largely based on things we saw in the first trailer, and now we’re wondering which characters, if at all, we’ll get toys of from the second trailer. Especially since Star Wars toys do not come out as frequently or as rapidly as they have in the past.

Below, we’re going to break it down. We’ve got The Mandalorian and Grogu toys we’re definitely getting, and then 11 that we either probably will or probably won’t, for various reasons.

We’re definitely getting these toys…

The Mandalorian and Grogu – Of course. They’re the main characters in the film. Obviously, their toys would be the first onto shelves. Also, there have been several toys of each character over the past few years, so making them is not a difficult task.

Colonel Ward, played by Sigourney Weaver – Weaver’s character was in the first trailer, so it’s no surprise that she’s in the first wave. Plus, was Lucasfilm really going to deny fans the Alien/Star Wars crossover possibilities?

Rotta the Hutt – This one is a little shocking. Everyone’s favorite “Swole Hutt,” voiced by Jeremy Allen White, is a character we’ve never seen as a toy. Hutts are usually big and gross, but Rotta is jacked. It requires the toy manufacturers to do a whole new sculpt, which is not always something that happens. Case in point, there are often more Stormtrooper figures out there these days than main characters

Zeb Orrelios – The Star Wars Rebels star appeared briefly in some live-action projects, but now, finally, he gets his full due here. Toys are already on the way, as they should be.

Grogu with armor – The new trailer reveals how, at least in one case, Grogu will wear his large, beskar insignia outside of his robes. That feels like a very easy variant to make, so, of course, it’s already on the way.

We’ll probably get these toys…

Red Astromech – No, that’s not R2-D2. The new trailer has a brief shot of a red astromech droid rolling up to an X-Wing, and though we don’t know whose droid this is, again, it feels like a very easy reskin of previous astromech droids. So we’d imagine that comes out too.

Martin Scorsese – Arguably the biggest reveal in the latest Mandalorian and Grogu trailer is that legendary director Martin Scorsese is voicing an Ardennian character in the film. It’s unclear how large his role is, but Ardennian toys were made for Solo, so it wouldn’t be too much work for manufacturers to tweak that.

Embo – The Clone Wars bounty hunter was a pretty big reveal in the latest trailer, and since he’s a character that has been around a while in animation, it would be a pretty huge miss to not put out some toys. You have to assume they’re coming, right? Right? (Insert Anakin and Padmé meme here.)

Bigfoot Mouse Droid – Surely there’s a real name for it, but if ever there was a Star Wars item made to become a toy, it’s the all-terrain mouse droid that Grogu explodes in the trailer. There’s no guarantee it’s released, but it feels like it should.

We’re probably not getting these toys…

The Twins – We didn’t get toys of the Twins when they first appeared in The Book of Boba Fett; why would we get them now? Oh, sure, there’s also the small problem of them just becoming two huge blobs of plastic, so maybe they’re not the most appealing toys, but we think they’d be cool to have.

Baby Rodian with Speed Pram – There is a baby Rodian (affectionately called “Baby Greedo” by some) in the film, so you’d imagine a toy version would be a no-brainer. Especially since the character has an apparently superpowered baby pram that Grogu takes. However, we have a feeling this is a character that only shows up for a second, so while we’d love to put them on our shelf, we aren’t holding our breath.

Dejarik characters – Something The Mandalorian and Grogu is doing for the first time is bringing characters from Dejarik, the holo-chess game first played in A New Hope, to life. The latest trailer shows a Mantellian Savrip ripping off a door, and while it would be super cool to see these as toys, we imagine these characters are large, hard to get right, and not prominent enough to make. Even if it would be amazing to try and create a live-action Dejarik board.

The Dragonsnake – Undoubtedly, the coolest moment in the new trailer is the reveal of Din Djarin standing opposite a mysterious white dragonsnake. We’ll find out eventually if these are the same species that appeared in The Clone Wars, but, as gorgeous as this design is, and as much as we’d love to display one, it doesn’t seem very toy-friendly.

The Anzellan Coaster – For a brief moment in the trailer, we get a look at Grogu riding in a vehicle piloted by three Anzellans, the same species as Babu Frik. There are plenty of Anzellan toys, but we are talking about a package deal with three of them, Grogu, and a vehicle. It would be awesome but is probably a bit much.

Pessimistic mystery species – We don’t yet know the specific species name of this character, but in the trailer, he’s the one who says to Grogu, “Are you scared? You should be.” He’s not quite a Dug. Not quite a Hysalrian. We’ve reached out to Lucasfilm to clarify. But, since it’s not something that’s immediately recognizable, we sincerely doubt toys are coming.
