Crochet is so much more than baby blankets. With a simple hook and some string you can create the most amazing three-dimensional objects.
Please keep calling this ‘Yoda’ because it isn’t but whatevers.
Wow, they really nailed the hyper-obsessive fanboy stereotype…
My favorite part is how when “security” pulls the guy off-stage, Kimmel goes right back to calling it Baby Yoda!
Of course.
Being so pressed about even the tiniest minutia within in a fictional work pretty much guarantees that no one outside of other overzealous fanatics will take you seriously…
I love arguing about fictional work as much as the next geek… I just try not to take it too seriously.

Nobody, eh? I’ll see myself out.
He’s got a little removable robe. Naked baby Yoda.
Why?!
To dress him up in other cute outfits, of course!
Speaking of fanatics, I wonder if samurai cinema and manga fanatics would take notice of a bounty hunter Mandalorian and a “Yoda” child traveling together and getting into scrapes, because I’m thinking of the samurai classic Lone Wolf and Cub, with swordmaster Ogami Ittō (who accepts bounties), and his son Daigorō (in his baby cart):
- The character doesn’t have any other canonical name yet
- In the meantime “Baby Yoda” is as apt a descriptor as any
- For all we know his name IS “Yoda,” it could be a totally common name for that species just like “John” is in our world or “Antilles” is in the Star Wars galaxy.
Looks like two other users could camp out on the floor and use the feet as pillows.
