Hasbro Inc. (HAS) will ship toys based on the character known as "Baby Yoda" by fans of Star Wars spinoff "The Mandalorian" in May.

The series is on Walt Disney Co.'s (DIS) new streaming service Disney+, which debuted in November. Disney bought Lucasfilm in late 2012.

Hasbro said items featuring the character, whose actual name is The Child, are now available for preorders. Products include various figures and a talking plush toy.
