Grogu Has Landed. Trust Us, Get Two.

The galaxy's most beloved little foundling is here in soft Ty plush.

The Ty Beanie Baby Star Wars Grogu Floppy has the oversized ears, the wide dark eyes and the little brown robe, all in a floppy shape built for cuddles. He stands around 15 cm tall and costs $11.99 at Beanie Boos Australia.

Floppy is the key word. This is not a stiff display figure. He drapes over an arm, flops onto a pillow and squishes into a school bag. Which is exactly why kids fall hard for him, and exactly why we are going to give you our most repeated piece of advice.

If Grogu becomes the favourite, buy two.

Favourite toys do not stay on the bed. They come to the supermarket. They attend swimming lessons from the sidelines. They fall asleep in the car and get left there, or worse, get left on the seat of a cafe two suburbs away. When the favourite is missing at bedtime, the whole household knows about it. Anyone who has lived through that night does not want to live through it twice.

A second Grogu, kept quietly in a cupboard, is the fix. Swap the two around every few weeks so they age at the same pace and both feel right. If the original never goes missing, you have lost nothing. If it does, bedtime is saved and you look like a genius.

This little one appeals well beyond the kids, too. Plenty of adult Star Wars fans are buying Grogu for their desk, and at $11.99 he is one of the more affordable ways into official Star Wars plush. Fans of the show know he has a habit of wandering off. Plan accordingly.
