Yoda has always walked a fine line — cute enough to make plush dolls out of, but creepy enough that you’re never quite sure what he might do next in the movies. It’s a tight balancing act, and even minor changes can tip him definitively to one side or the other. For instance, the CGI Yoda of the prequels just looks like a Cabbage Patch Kid to me. Way too cute.
But what if you were to do something like, say, replacing his green skin with normal human flesh colored skin? Sculptor Andrea Eusebi did just that, and the results are disturbing indeed…
I wouldn’t want to run into this guy in a Dagobah swamp. Hopefully George Lucas doesn’t see this. I’m not eager for Star Wars: The Complete Saga: Flesh Colored Edition.

“normal human flesh colored skin”
So white people are normal?
“Flesh” in terms of a color is just that, white people’s color of skin. I bet if you search “flesh color” on google it is going to be that. But make Nathan look like a racist, why not…
And to comment on that Yoda, its creepy as hell but I love it.
“Normal” as in “a color that would look normal on a human. As opposed to say, green”.
I have no complaint either way.
Well, obviously green looks good on an *alien*.
Cosplay, my good sir.
All I’m saying is, someone hurry up and make a black Yoda.
In all seriousness I would like to see a black Yoda also!
Kill. It. With. Fire.
Caucasian Yoda looks like Ed Harris playing John McCain.
All this tells me is they could have saves a lot of time and money by just painting Ross Perot green to play Yoda.
So he sculpted Mickey Rooney. Okay.

Oh wait, this guy.
New batteries for my Miracle-ear I need, replace them I must.
“A conspiracy, 9/11 was.”
Far more blog posts here need to begin with the phrase “I Fear and Hate…”
I’ll do my best.
Uncle Les?! I thought you were dead!
Forget George Lucas’ re-re-re-release with a white person fleshed colored Yoda (as well as him digitally removing Carrie Fisher’s coke nails). I’m waiting for the re-re-re-release that digitally alters Mark Hammill’s face in “A New Hope” so that it matches his ugly mug in the sequels after his car accident and post-plastic surgery that changed the way he looked.
This looks like Billy Crystal in The Princess Bride.
Storming the castle, have fun!
I’ve seen better.
So, a Lannik basically.
