HASBRO FEELING LEFT OUT FROM THE BABY YODA ANNOUNCEMENTS CONTROVERSY BETWEEN SIDESHOW AND HOT TOYS!!

“They could have at least crashed our website too!" says Hasbro employee.

BREAKING NEWS:

HASBRO FEELING LEFT OUT FROM THE BABY YODA ANNOUNCEMENTS CONTROVERSY BETWEEN SIDESHOW AND HOT TOYS!!

"They could have at least crashed our website too!" says Hasbro employee.

On January 30th, Sideshow Collectibles announced a life-size figure (well...statue) of The Child, from 'The Mandalorian' TV series. This led to a huge amount of traffic on the website which caused it to crash. Major news outlets started to report the website crash all over the internet, and the very next day, the blockbuster toy company from Hong Kong, Hot Toys, decided to break its silence and announced they were going to make figures of The Child, not only life-size, but also in 1:4th and 1:6th scale.

Toy collectors everywhere went crazy with speculations after this announcement for a few reasons:

- Sideshow is the main distributor for Hot Toys, so having both brands competing against each other for the Child figure could create a rift between the brands. What will happen? Sideshow had to know that Hot Toys was making one too, right?

- Why did Hot Toys go out of their way to put together a collage to announce they would indeed do the figure, when they had nearly 2 months to do so?

- For the people that pre-ordered it and caused the site to crash: How does one get a Non-Refundable Deposit back? We all know people will order the Hot Toys version from Sideshow anyway... Did Sideshow just con the Star Wars fandom out of NRD money?

Meanwhile, Hasbro, the long-time toy maker behind the Star Wars figures, had released that same announcement on December 12, 2019, 50 days before Sideshow and Hot Toys, along with a plethora of other The Child/'Baby Yoda' related merchandise. They announced a talking plush, a Black series figure, a 6,5" figure, and a series of mini figures of the Child in various situations, called the 'Bounty Collection'.

'When we announced all those figures back in early december, more than a month and a half before Sideshow, our website didn't crash.' we were told by an employee who will remain anonymous. 'Not a spike in traffic, nothing. Our timing must have been off. I do not know what happened. They could have at least crashed our website too...'.

If we were in Hasbro's place, I admit it would feel a bit unfair to be overshadowed by those 2 giants, but rest assured that Hasbro will certainly sell a ton of Baby Yoda merchandise in the months to come, with the Sideshow and Hot Toys versions not being available before the end of the year or probably 2022, respectively.
