The\u00a0Yakface Toyguide<\/a>\u00a0updates resume today with the addition of\u00a0Ahsoka<\/a>\u00a0from the\u00a0Vintage Collection<\/a>.<\/p>\n

PROS:\u00a0<\/strong>Hasbro has worked up a nice, realistic interpretation of Ahsoka’s “maturing” sculpt that debuted in the middle of Season 3. The paint work is really well done as are the details of her outfit and head sculpt. Her accessories are standard fare \u2013 lightsabers and hilts \u2013 and are faithful to their signature designs.<\/p>\n

CONS:<\/strong>\u00a0With a character that is as dynamic as “Snips” (yes, I went there) in terms of fighting style, I feel that the addition of ball-jointed hips would have really<\/em> served this figure better than the standard swivel hips. I also think that she is a bit too tall in respect to her Anakin and Obi-Wan figure counterparts. Finally, to pick the smallest of nits, I think that her shoto (the short bladed lightsaber) wasn’t sculpted in the right color and should be a bit more yellowish-green in hue.\u00a0These oversights keep this figure from being a definitive version in my book, but don’t negate it from being good overall.<\/p>\n

Head to the toyguide<\/a>\u00a0for the full image gallery and to judge for yourself whether this figure is worth adding to your collection.<\/p>\n

You can also weigh in with your impressions on the figures we add to our toyguide on\u00a0facebook<\/a>\u00a0and in our\u00a0forums.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
