Subscribe to our newsletter Piaggio is back with another limited-edition Star Wars robot The Grogu gitamini is a custom-skinned cargo-carrying robot The $2,875 bot is up for order now ahead of May the 4th and the release of The Mandalorian and Grogu Were just six days away from May the 4th aka Star Wars Day and only 25 days away from Star Wars returning to the big screen with The Mandalorian and
Grogu . So it only makes sense that a trove of brands are launching new products, including plenty of toys, all themed to the iconic universe, and
the new film.

Now, nearly a year after Piaggio first introduced a Star Wars-themed cargo-carrying droid, the brand is doing it again. TechRadar can exclusively show off and reveal the Grogu gitamini with a fresh skin, some stickers, and a surprise under the hood that gives this personal companion robot a bounty hunter feel.

Essentially, the gitamini has two main wheels and a full stack of sensors, including two cameras and a color CMOS camera that works with an onboard platform to lock onto the owner aka you and allows the cargo-carrying robot to follow you around. Article continues below You may like Disney Store
brings BDX Droid figures and Mandalorian toys for May 4 Disney reveals new action-packed trailer for Star Wars movie The Mandalorian & Grogu Here's your world-first look at a 'must-have' collectible for Star Wars Day 2026 (Image credit: Piaggio Fast Forward) The cargo bin measures 17.9 x 16.5 x 18.9
inches and has a 20-pound capacity good enough for a ton of credits, some Beskar-style goods, or a bag or two from a quick run to a convenience store
or local grocer. Piaggio Fast Forward again worked with Disney, Disney Consumer Products, and Lucasfilm to design this custom Grogu edition of the gitamini. That includes a mostly white outer shell with some orange accents and simulated wear and tear. Its a pretty simple skin, but under the hood,
the gitamini does a bit more.

Theres an adorable Grogu graphic that pops off the main build for a 3D
effect, ensuring the Force-sensitive creature protects your goods stored inside. The interior cargo bin is orange, matching the exterior accents. Whether you keep the lid open or closed, Grogu will be there to offer protection.

It also features custom LED light effects and custom sound effects essentially a healthy dose of beeps and boops, just like we saw with last years models. Get daily insight, inspiration and deals in your inbox Sign up for breaking news, reviews, opinion, top tech deals, and more. Contact me
