I lost my mom a couple of days ago (she lost her battle with lung cancer). Seeing your mom full of awesome energy, that my mom had as well, made me smile. Awesome way to make the figure posable. Edit for sentence structure
Dude I know it doesn’t change anything but I am so sorry for your loss. She drives me crazy but I don’t know what I’d do if I lost my mum, especially to a battle with cancer.
xxxgothmanxxx has done this already. This link is how to cannibalize the 7" one with the voice box for use with the 13" Mattel one. th-cam.com/video/BDytzAc0XsE/w-d-xo.html although I have to say I actually like the armature he used originally in another video. th-cam.com/video/GdfdK_HepY8/w-d-xo.html (this link starts at the part where he shows the mod, skipping the review of the toy) I'm not sure why he did not use this wire for the inside when he did the newer mod, but that's his choice. He also showed a cheap and easy to make a pram that does not require the use of laser cutters or 3-D printers, unlike so many others. th-cam.com/video/WdSa8Q3ByFQ/w-d-xo.html SKS Props also has a great vid on how to mod your Mattel Baby Yoda/Grogu so he can hold the control stick knob and/or a blue cookie magnetically, just like the Sideshow version does. th-cam.com/video/5y2tF9MEVC0/w-d-xo.html (It does require removing Baby's hands--eek!--but it turns out that they are zip-tied in and easy to put back on.) The shift knob is created using a ping pong ball and foam, and the cookie is all foam, so again, this is an inexpensive way to mod the baby.
Your mum is a riot :) Very cool to see you incorporating your family into these videos. It's very sweet and in keeping with the Holiday season. God bless, Chris.
Jeez...the confidence in your work and abilities you have to have to just dive in a slice that thing up. I tip my hat to you man, I'd be a nervous wreck the entire time.
This is a stupid comment that I write. But I wanted to. With the techniques I learned from watching your videos, I ended up using them to help my mom make the Advent wreath. Never expect to do it. I really wasn't expecting to use costum techniques for something like that. And she is very Catholic and especially at this time. Due to her quarantine, it is difficult to get materials to make the Advent wreath, and she is already 63 years old. So by recycling, we were able to do this. And using the techniques I learned, thanks to you, I look more than good. We were able to make golden metallic effects with pine cones and those little simple things that Christmas demands. I just wanted to comment on that. and thank you. Today he helped me in these fucking days where we don't know where the hell we are going to finish, to get a smile from my mom.
Now this is the perfect mod. I saw the two other mods and this one is perfect I will keep this video in mind. Thank you. Just need to learn how to use the expanding foam.
@@armado9721 I hate to agree with you, but you're right. She feels like the type of person, you couldn't really let your guard down with. She'd try to prank you or mess with you in the most obnoxious ways. Don't get me wrong, she is probably a great lady, clearly her son turned out well. Maybe it's just nervous behavior.
Hey Chris! I just ordered an epic mando helmet. Coming at the perfect time because where I live I get quite a bit of snow haha. I’ll be able to intimidate my sister and her friends as I walk in the snow with my helmet! I love your cosplay man. Keep doing what your doing.
Could you guys possibly link me to the thicker black garden ties/posing wire you used here? I’ve tried every search I can think of and only keep coming up to the smaller green wire that definitely won’t be strong enough to hold the legs up. Thanks a ton!
Mums looking fabulous as always 🥰👌 Great mod, I would have used a stuffed body and added the torso weight to that to make it more lifelike and also easier to add the wiring. He's just so damn cute 😭♥️
Yeh i thought the same when i was looking to order it, That is the sideshow "premium" line for you though.. their best work for poseables are the 1/6 line... i have the rare Sideshow 1/6 General Grievous and it is godly.
@@DarrenCarnallCustoms makes you wonder why its a statue in the first place. It loses a lot of the character and cuteness by making it look up like that. It would look way better looking forward or down. You wouldve expected the head to atleast be articulated especially since the competition (hot toys) is releasing an articulated version at the same pricepoint
@@DarrenCarnallCustoms yes i know that,.. like i said,.. Sideshow "premium" line,.. which are statues, not 1/4 or 1/6th grade posables.. for this there should have been a hybrid,.. it's priced at like $700CAD, for a coat and a head sculpt basically,.. that's not that great lol
What you should of done with the new bendy joints, was coat it in flexy rubber to hide what you customised to match the rest of him like it was never altered and also added some fur to the ear edges.
Hey Chris, wondered if you had any input after having this for a few months whether or not you would have preferred the Black stiffer wire tie? Also do you have a link for the thicker black stuff, can’t seem to find it.. thank you

Sorry for your loss
Chris and Adam Savage on an episode of Tested is the colab we deserve after 2020.
please make that happen
YES
@Bere18 Random That's why I said after 2020 and hopefully this whole worldwide panic attack will be over.
No a lo takataks
Yes.
Chris i would love to see you do this with the $20 mattel "the child" for the people out here on a budget
That's a great idea, actually
YESS PLEASE!!!
I have one of those lol

I would have paid a bit more if Sideshow made him like this from the start. Good job 👍🏼
That’s how they should have sold them. Nicely done mate. I have a collection of Sideshow myself.
Your mum is a riot :) Very cool to see you incorporating your family into these videos. It's very sweet and in keeping with the Holiday season. God bless, Chris.
Great Job Chris! The pose looks so natural, awesome modification!
After all these years watching you, it’s awesome to see you mom and you!! Your two are a riot!! Love your work, huge inspiration!!
Thank you 🙏 😘
I love that your parents support your endeavors and your momma is cool.
This is so perfect. 😭 If he came like this in the first place I would have purchased one.
WOW for $400 you would think he would come fully poseable!!!
It’s $400 because they’re all hand painted and taken from the molds used to create the original grogu puppet they really are incredible pieces
I love how everyone who's buying this takes it apart t make it better xD
I was just watching Adam Savage's one day build on this figure and then this uploaded. This is just a Grogu kind of day
Beautiful build! Had a heart attack when he flew off the lazy Susan 🤣
Me too. 😂😂😂
@@Dolllybird you two are great together, hope to see you in more videos!
Chris’ mom looks like a fun person to be around.
This has made me so happy. Your mum is such a lovely and beaming person! Good job on the child!!!
Jeez...the confidence in your work and abilities you have to have to just dive in a slice that thing up. I tip my hat to you man, I'd be a nervous wreck the entire time.
Forgive me but
This modification is much better than Adam Savage’s
Seriously, you made Grugo perfect
Wish he was mine, absolutely love it
Sorry to be that guy, but it grogu
It was scary watching you cut into it and everything but it turned out really awesome
Was your mom ever on an episode of Bondi Vet? I swear she looks exactly like this woman that was on there with some of her birds!
That was me 😂
@@Dolllybird wow!
@@Dolllybird I remember your lovely pink, yellow, and blue chickens! ❤️
Awwwww Thank you 🙏. I still have them.
@@Dolllybird your son is the best he’s incredibly talented person and makes great videos mrs stanley
Oh my goodness!!! He DOES look more like the real thing now!!! This gives me hope. THANK YOU!!!!
BRILLIANT BRILLIANT BRILLIANT!!! ANOTHER WORK OF ART BROUGHT TO YOU BY COSPLAY CHRIS!!!
I don’t understand why it wasn’t designed to be fully articulated when it’s priced as a premium collectible
"Hasn't he got the cutest set of balls... just like yours!"... LOL - fantastic video!!
love your mom man makes me miss mine cherish every moment you can
he definitely looks better looking down...he looked too serious looking up. soo cute! good job ☺️
Well done Chris! Added so much personality to it
I love how he catches Grogu like a father would catch their baby, protecting the head and everything !!!
Omg, looks way better! You made him come to life! Congrats!
Your mum seems a hoot. Nice job as always, mate.
Just watching the process is terrifying but worth it at the end. Grogu looks amazing
Looks a lot better, don't know why side show didn't do that, for the cost it has it should have been articulated
You would think sideshow would see the mod community and make him possible lol . Awesome work. See this is making it better and more life like .
He's a cutie, and his mum is a type!
Baby Yoda looks adorable!!!!
I actually prefer it in that position.
This actually turned out pretty cool!

"What a beautiful looking specimen"- Chris
Sooo...you have the mandalorian helmet and the child... Would you do a full cosplay? Because I would love that

Beautiful work! Sideshow should showcase all the mods people are doing!
Much, much better! Thank you for sharing your art! 😃
Your mom is beyond awesome. Your Grogu project came out so great. Between you and your mom, I have to sub.
Great job with the customization! Now it really was worth the money you paid for it.
Your mother has a lot of energy.
That is just crazy thank you very much for having this tutorial if I ever get my hands on that child I'll definitely be doing that kind of work
Great job ! And quality work here mate
Now this is the perfect mod. I saw the two other mods and this one is perfect I will keep this video in mind. Thank you. Just need to learn how to use the expanding foam.
Great Job looks so good and very possible now 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🔥🔥💚💚💚

First time watching after 2 years and I'm not disappointed
Good guy Chris. Modifies his Grogu using easy to use cheap hand tools
Great job again Chris Grogu looks awesome 👌
Mate, thank your mum for me you two have fantastic chemistry. I miss my mum. You guys are hilarious together. Love it. Great Mod and video!

great job chris.. mum definitely has heaps of a character.. cheers mate!
Damn Chris looking hella buff
You guys are the cutest and you made the baby look so much cuter
I've missed the custom collectibles. That's what got me onto the channel to begin with. Hope to see more in the future!
That opening had me in stitches 😂
Mrs Mandalorian does it best. 😆 Your mom is so cute. Love her.
Thank God they finally gave him a name so people can stop referring to the child as 'baby yoda'.
Yes he has a name, but I seriously doubt people will ever stop calling him baby Yoda 🤣
@@kahn04 unfortunately
The baby child
@@FinalConsensus why does it matter if people call him baby yoda?
Does it really bother you that much
You are quite the craftsman @cosplaychris well done 👍
You and your mum are great xD Had me smiling so much
He's adorable.
I have spoken
Yay, more Mama Krissy! Great custom! I can't justify paying $375 bucks for something that needs that much work though.
Could you guys possibly link me to the thicker black garden ties/posing wire you used here? I’ve tried every search I can think of and only keep coming up to the smaller green wire that definitely won’t be strong enough to hold the legs up. Thanks a ton!
Finally, a new figure customization video
14:55 Damn, Chris with them dad baby catching reflexes, nice one
wow gotta say Adam might need to redo his lol very well done
Great job. Those The Child replicas aren't cheap so I tip my hat to you taking the time to do this. I'd be worried at destroying one if I did that!
Your mum is certainly a character, good on her! haha =)
What’s worse, Baby Yoda, eating an endangered species’ eggs, or Chris’ Mom spinning him around 😂😂
At 3:12 Baby Yoda looks like he’s flashing us like that gremlin from “Gremlins 2”. Lol.
Huge improvement Chris!! Great job!!
Amazing video Chris!
Your mum is so adorable. Love her ❤
Always look forward to these
OMG I love your mom! Style icon!
Chris' mom is a national treasure
Love your custom collectables, just finished catching up on Mandalorian so this is the perfect thing to watch now lol
Mums looking fabulous as always 🥰👌 Great mod, I would have used a stuffed body and added the torso weight to that to make it more lifelike and also easier to add the wiring. He's just so damn cute 😭♥️

That's what the Hot Toys version is for - has swappable hands and ears 👂 😄
funny how Sideshow is now offering a different "The child" life size, thats posable, for $100 more. lol
It’s $45 more and it’s made by Hot Toys not Sideshow, they do sell it tho.
What you should of done with the new bendy joints, was coat it in flexy rubber to hide what you customised to match the rest of him like it was never altered and also added some fur to the ear edges.
Have you ever considered using the ball joint swivle mounts for cameras. Its all screw based for the shoulder and arm.
Do you regret not waiting to use more of the foam instead if resin for the lower half? How much weight would it have saved you?
Wow! Amazing job Chris! This is awesome! I’m gonna get it and follow your steps on doing This! Great Work! 👏👏💯
He caught that toy like it was a real baby. 😂
Love your mum she's amazing and the conversion was great to 😄
OMG give yer Mum a hug from me. I think she's great!
Aww little Grogu looks great!
Adam’s was good but yours is the way I would’ve done it! Great job!
I love his mums fashion sense!!!
Hey Chris, wondered if you had any input after having this for a few months whether or not you would have preferred the Black stiffer wire tie? Also do you have a link for the thicker black stuff, can’t seem to find it.. thank you
I think I prefer your build over Adam's! I just seems so very posable.
Chris’s mum is my spirit animal xx
That looks so good. I want it
