Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 is still five months away from its theatrical release, and already, it’s becoming clear who the film’s scene stealers are going to be.
It seems fair to say that Baby Groot will likely be the most in-demand figure released with the film, thanks to his adorable personality and fun design.
With more trailers to come, whatever is shown from Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 next may either increase the hype and popularity of Baby Groot, or shift more of the attention and focus to the other returning and new characters alike (especially since Nebula, Mantis and even Michael Rooker’s Yondu have only been briefly glimpsed in the trailers thus far).
Though, the latter has been predictably absent from all of the film’s non-Comic-Con trailers, and Mantis was just glimpsed briefly in the end tag of the film’s second teaser trailer.
