An iconic Star Wars statue of Yoda at Lucasfilm's Singapore building has been replaced by a statue of The Mandalorian's Grogu. It's been almost four years since "Baby Yoda" took the galaxy by storm, quickly becoming a hero, a meme, and an adorable icon all at once. Ever since, Grogu's story has blossomed beautifully in Star Wars, taking him from being a bounty of Din Djarin (Pedro Pascal) to Mando's adopted son and Mandalorian apprentice. He has certainly taken a much different path than the classic Jedi Master Yoda, and now, that's been taken a step further.

The statue replaces one of the Yoda statues that was gifted to George Lucas, with the other remaining at the fountain in front of Lucasfilm's San Francisco campus.
Grogu Is The Future Of Star Wars 
This change truly comes as no surprise given how important Grogu is to the future of Star Wars. The story of Grogu and Din Djarin has quite literally transformed the galaxy and has shaped the future of the franchise, paving the way for all of its spin-off Disney+ TV shows that are now leading to the culmination events of Dave Filoni's The Mandalorian-era movie. Given that Grogu is still so young, he has many years left to live in the galaxy, and that makes him one of Star Wars' richest characters going forward.
