WOW! Stuff launches Star Wars Yoda Puppetronic by RealFX

The Yoda Puppetronic combines lifelike features with authentic character movements and over 120 sound and action combinations.

Wow! Stuff is bringing one of the most iconic character figures to life with the launch of Star Wars Yoda Puppetronic by RealFX, an immersive collector piece that transforms fans into master puppeteers.

Blending traditional puppetry with animatronic technology, the officially licensed Star Wars creation allows collectors, superfans, older children and kidults to control the Yoda Puppetronics expressions, movements and emotions. Launching in the wake of the release of The Mandalorian & Grogu, and pre-empting the Star Wars’ 50th anniversary in 2027, Yoda Puppetronic by RealFX has been designed to deliver a uniquely theatrical character experience.

Designed with realistic expressions and authentic character movements, Yoda Puppetronic features lifelike skin, moving eyebrows, blinking eyes, expressive ears and a fully animated mouth. When combined with over 120 sound and action combinations, fans can recreate legendary Jedi moments, perform iconic scenes from across the saga or create entirely new adventures through Yoda Puppetronics expressive movements and personality-driven reactions.

Fans can move Yoda Puppetronic’s head as he studies the Force, raise an eyebrow as he delivers iconic lessons, blink his eyes as danger approaches and even recreate his famous Force powers with a trembling FX arm-raising feature inspired by classic Jedi moments.

Yoda Puppetronic also features four unique personality modes, each revealing different sides of the Jedi Master:

  • Conversational mode allows fans to interact directly with Yoda Puppetronic as if speaking with the Jedi himself
  • Jedi Master mode delivers guidance and training
  • Master of Mischief mode showcases Yoda’s playful personality
  • Defender of the Night mode unleashes Yoda Puppetronic’s vigilant Jedi instincts

Featuring authentic voice lines and reactions, Yoda Puppetronic speaks in his iconic Jedi voice with classic phrases including: “Strong am I with the Force… but not that strong,” “Yoda! You seek Yoda!” and “Training I have for you.”

Complete with robes inspired by traditional Jedi’s, a cane inspired by the Jedi master and a collector-grade display case, the officially licensed product has been designed to offer collectors, superfans, kidults and younger fans an accessible way to own a cinematic-quality Star Wars collectible.

Kerry Tarrant, Head of Marketing and Brand, Wow! Stuff, said: “Yoda is one of the most beloved and recognisable characters in cinematic history, so we wanted to create something truly special for Star Wars fans, especially as the new film has launched this year following a seven-year hiatus. Star Wars Yoda Puppetronic by RealFX blends play with innovative technology to deliver an incredibly immersive collector experience that really captures the nostalgia and personality of the legendary Jedi Master. We are hugely excited to give fans the opportunity to meet Yoda Puppetronic by RealFX this weekend at MCM Birmingham Comic Con.”

Yoda Puppetronic by RealFX is officially licensed by Lucasfilm and joins the growing portfolio of entertainment collector lines and collectibles from Wow! Stuff. It is currently offered as pre-order ahead of stock arriving in September.
