Build-a-Bear CEO Sharon Price John revealed the new toy at the ICR Conference in Orlando, Florida, according to Business Insider.
"I'm excited to share we will be one of the first companies to provide the digital and internet phenomenon who is trending higher than all the presidential candidates combined," John said, referencing NewsWhip data that showed the beloved green alien "driving almost twice as many average social media interactions on news stories about it as any 2020 Democrat," according to Axios.
"We now will have The Child, also known as Baby Yoda," John said, per Business Insider's report, adding that it will be available in stores in the next few months.
Ever since baby Yoda made its debut in the first episode of The Mandalorian, it's been the source of nonstop memes and internet chatter.
Build-a-Bear isn't the first company to capitalize on the creature's popularity, though John did say that Build-a-Bear "started this process almost with the first episode."
Funko Pop! announced last month that a figurine based on The Child will be available in May 2020, and there are several other doll interpretations out there for purchase.
