Everyone knows The Mandalorian takes place a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away. But what this new action figure presupposes is, what if it doesn't? What if, instead, The Mandalorian took place in ancient Japan? That's exactly what happens in this new entry in the Meisho Movie Realization series of action figures. This upcoming figure is called Ronin Mandalorian & Grogu, and it's available to preorder now on the IGN Store. It costs $139.99, with an estimated delivery of March 2022.
Preorder Ronin Mandalorian & Grogu
In this figure, the Mandalorian's Beskar armor has been re-imagined in the style of a ronin samurai during the feudal period of Japan. Accompanying the lone warrior is Grogu, AKA Baby Yoda, who sports a handsome top knot haircut. It also comes with Grogu's pram, which you can set in a wooden push cart, which is more realistic to the era these figures pay tribute to.
Also included is a sword and scabbard, the Mandalorian's rifle and blaster, two additional pairs of hands to hold the various implements of death, plus a jet pack. The figures look very high-quality, though naturally they have a price to match. If you're interested in picking these up, you'll want to preorder soon. The last day to preorder is September 24, assuming supplies last that long.
