A Hellraiser-themed Grogu statue based on the character from The Mandalorian has been released by Mountain Ape Toys & Collectibles.
Mountain Ape unveiled the 4-inch tall figure of Grogu dressed as Pinhead from Clive Barker's 1987 horror classic Hellraiser and holding the legendary lament configuration puzzle box. Created by Mountain Ape's Michael Tinson from a 3D file by Geoff Wicks of HEX3D, Baby Yoda is here re-imagined as a cenobite cloaked in Pinhead's black trench coat. The statue is a uniquely hand-painted and resin-casted figurine that's the perfect size for a desktop. The one-of-a-kind figure is listed for £45 ($59 USD) and the current wait time for each statuette to be painstakingly created is 16-18 weeks. You can support Wicks' HEX3D Patreon and join the Facebook group.
With Grogu recently showing off a bit of his inner dark side in recent controversial episodes of Season 2's The Mandalorian, the Hellraiser crossover makes for an interesting character design that is both cute and unsettling at the same time. As the beloved character begins dabbling in practices of the dark side, fans can only hope that the adorable cultural icon doesn't fall into a similar trap as the one Frank Cotton falls into while trying to solve the Hellraiser puzzle.
Created by Jon Favreau, The Mandalorian stars Pedro Pascal, Gina Carano, Carl Weathers and Giancarlo Esposito. New episodes arrive Fridays on Disney+.
