The launch ofDisney+created a ton of buzz, from thetechnical difficulties that plagued its launchto the news that 10 million peoplesigned up on the first day. It’s no surprise, considering the streaming service offers an incredible content library that includes classics from the Disney archive, the entire Pixar library, as well as movies and TV from the Marvel andStar Warsuniverses. But perhaps the most viral event to come out of the service thus far is the introduction to a tiny, green alien.
That’s right, we’re talking aboutBaby Yoda, the cutest little creature to come out of the Star Wars universe in years (or perhaps ever?). And now you can show your own appreciation for Baby Yoda (aka The Child) by choosing the little tyke as your Disney+ Avatar.
Assuming you love Baby Yoda (which, of course you do), you may be interested in expressing your love in the form of your Disney+ profile pic. Here’s how to make it happen.

For those unaware (and there can’t be many of you left out there), Baby Yoda was introduced by the first live-actionStar Warstelevision series,The Mandalorian, which debuted at Disney+’s launch. The series instantly captured the hearts and minds ofStar Warsfans. Considered a space Western, something that’s a little off-the-cuff for theStar Warsuniverse,The Mandalorianstars Pedro Pascal as a loner bounty hunter with a conscience.The Mandalorianmay have implications for thestorylines of the largerStar Warsfilm universeas well, making it one of the most influential pieces ofStar Warscontent to air off the silver screen.
However, regardless of the show’s connection to the rest of a galaxy far, far, far away, it’s clear that it has already had a massive impact on our galaxy through Baby Yoda. The adorable fifty-year-old child (species age differently!) has practicallybroken the internet, spawning countless memes, unstoppable conspiracy theorizing, andall of the merchandise. In these times of strife and internet-based conflict, Baby Yoda is the ultimate, unifying force for the common good. All can agree Baby Yoda is glorious.
Now you can have the coolest, cutest Disney+ profile icon in town. You’re welcome!
