    Hot Toys all the way for me. I think the sculpt on the Sideshow version is fantastic however the overly saturated red cheeks, the way The Child is always looking up, the way the arms just hang unnaturally are a huge NO NO for me. Hot Toys wins for me😎

    Two excellent choices (how often does that happen?) Ultimately, I prefer the Sideshow version but I can see why many prefer the HT. IMO there isn't a wrong choice here. I have given my SS Grogu articulation following the Adam Savage mod and it worked great.

  • @13coconuthead

    This is how the comments for this comparison go - 99% of people who already own the SS version will comment on why the SS version is better (to justify their purchase and not feel the need to buy both). Nearly everyone else will say HT version is better, they are excited about their preorder. A very small handful of SS version owners will confess they really like the HT version, and are buying it too.

    Hot toys seems like a much younger version of grogu whilst Sideshow nicely captures grogu's actual form from the show. The Sideshow version does have very pink cheeks but it is actually very accurate to certain scenes throughout the show where his cheeks glow in certain lighting. I prefer the Sideshow version mainly due to the amount of detail they have put into it. The Hot toys version just seems a little off with his face just preferably not to my liking. Both are amazing choices.

    Sideshow one for me. Hot Toys is also very nice, but ear seams and color difference of the ears just ruin the otherwise great figure. I do like the articulation of the Hot Toys version, but I would prefer to have the more accurate looking piece. I will likely mod the Sideshow arms when I receive it for articulation.

      @@Joker-fx6mh im not saying its bad or worse. I for one love the look of sideshow's statue. Im just saying they took creative freedom when making the statue to make it even more realistic and if not cuter than what we see on the tv show. Such as puffier cheeks and emphasized wrinkles etc. I know that the developers of the child is partnered with sideshow. That doesnt mean they cant take liberties on the statue.

    Sorry, but this is an unfair and biased video. It’s like Sideshow Grogu wad purposely posed in an unflattering light. I’m a Hot Toys fanboy all the way, but I knew right off rip that because Legacy Collectibles was helming the project and not Sideshow, I knew it would be a winner. Nothing short of incredible that the Sideshow Grogu came out basically the same as the prototype pics. HT is very nice, but there’s no reason for me to have both. Do I wish Sideshow was poseable? Sure I do, but thankfully the way they have him posed works.
