Hot Toys was bold with this one. Never thought they'll make an actual teen actor as a figure too. Hope they could do more younger characters in the future too
It not a retcon. She had 3 main outfits in the show. This is just one we never seen set set during a time we didn't get episodes for. Her outfits changed mid season
People say that hot toys pays attention to detail but this just properly proves that. All you need to do is be a background character in a tv show and hot toys will make it cause I’m pretty sure this version of Ashoka was only in the episode for something like 5-10 minutes and now she’s a hot toys figure.
Wait why is this outfit different than the Clone Wars Season 3-5 outfit? Looks close, but its missing some of the cutouts and the back is different too, no?
Because it isn't the season 3-5 outfit, it's the changed version of her season 1-2 outfit that appears in Tales of the Jedi and the Teth and Ryloth flashbacks in the Ahsoka series. Lucasfilm realized that the little tube top on a 14 year old wasn't the best thing, so they changed her outfit and basically just made it so it covers more skin.
This is her second appearance, which is kind of defined by her acquiring a second lightsaber off-screen (in Forces of Destiny). I don’t think she has her second blade in this flashback, for whatever reason, but it would be nice to have the lightsabers she canonically wielded when she looked like that.
She is supposed to have two blades with ths outfit. She gets this outfit during clone wars season 3. This outfit seems like its own interpretation of her season 3 look. Like its a blend of her season and 1 and 3. However it seems like hot toys and the Ahsoka show came up with an amalgamation based off of season 3 and 1 to retcon/avoid a young Ahsoka wearing the crop top outfit if their intention was to show a season 1 aged Ahsoka. But if it's supposed to be season 3 (based on age), Ahsoka is supposed to have 2 sabers. The animated version by hot toys from season 3 has 2 sabers.
This is the retconned version of her original outfit, so no, she wouldn't have her shoto blade yet. Note the fact that the only time we see this specific outfit in Ahsoka is during flashbacks to Teth and Ryloth, both of which happened during Season 1.
Awesome preview and many thanks to Ryan for the footage! I like the design of the costume and the blue with red on the upper torso is satisfying to look at. Besides the colors popping the likeness to the actress is uncanny, if it releases like that it'll look perfect
Hello Justin! I don't know much about the New Character but what a Brilliant looking Piece by Hot Toys. This is my first time, seeing a Teenage "Ahsoka Tano Palawan" done by them. They definitely took it, in a other Level of Art. Thanks Justin and Ryan for the Amazing Snapshot Video! 🤩👌😃👍👍
It's possible Hottoys will use the head sculpt on a Clone Wars Season 7 Ahsoka Tano body in the future.. I guess I'll have to wait for that.. thanks for the heads up and to Ryan of Hong Kong.
Another beautiful on-point figure from HT for the Ahsoka series. I just cannot pull the trigger on anything from that series, at least at pre-order prices.
I'm shocked, shocked that we aren't being given that sandy footprint base. I'm curious whether young Ashoka will have double jointed elbows. That does look like Ariana Greenblat, looks like a great head sculpt. And, great photos Ryan, loads of thanks!
Not sure why? Because a young/featureless headsculpt is about the hardest thing you can do, aside from expressions like smiles.All those subtle compound curves. Age lines and defined features help a lot! Fig looks great, thanks for the vid guys!
Nice 👍 tnx Ryan now we need her with the blue & silver costume that she also wore in the same episode and in that scene she had two lightsabers. If they make her she will look awesome beside artisan Anakin and Captain Rex.
Any chance they will release the Clone Wars season 8 Ashoka? It was portrayed in the Ashoka series too. It would go along very well with the 501th figures.
Great preview. Thanks Ryan! In regards to the pleather vs. real leather debate...It's not like HTs would use the same type of leather used in goods we utilize i.e. jackets, purses etc. Maybe a tier or two lower but it would still be leather. And yes HT has done leather goods in the past so not unreasonable to expect they would utilize it again. I believe the upcoming Indiana Jones figure will have a leather jacket and the Wolverine from DOFP that was recently released had a leather jacket. My AOS Ghostrider fig (REALLY dig that fig btw) has a leather jacket. Thanks for vid!
That dial of destiny Indiana jones figure is said to have real leather shoes, jacket, and whip, and at most he’s worth $335. They can use real leather and the figure wouldn’t be at an outrageous price. Why aren’t they doing it? I have no fucking idea.
My only fault with this is with the show. This outfit is from season 3 when she started to have 2 sabers. However, this scene in the show takes place in season 1, where she has 1 Saber. So because of that, this figure isn't accurate to any point in the clone wars aside from the episode of tales of the jedi I think.
@@JustinsCollection I think from what I read I know her younger actress was in The New Barbie movie and she was on The Disney Channel Show Stuck In The Middle
Hot Toys was bold with this one. Never thought they'll make an actual teen actor as a figure too. Hope they could do more younger characters in the future too
Agreed!
I'm really hoping for a two pack Kenobi-Series Leia and Luke
Amega from bad batch please.
Bold ? If not like it's a teen in the gold bikini
My star wars shelf will have this, white outfit Ashoka, Anikan and darth vader DX from kenobi on it. Looking forward to that display
Nice!
This version is the retconned version of her second outfit, she should have her smaller yellowish green blade as a second blade.
It looks very much like her Tales of the Jedi appearance to me
No this is clearly the retconned version of her first outfit. Her second outfit still looks essentially the same as it originally did.
@@jeebus2313 This is retconned 1st outift, before it went into 2nd outfit.
It's disney guys, what did you expect
It not a retcon. She had 3 main outfits in the show. This is just one we never seen set set during a time we didn't get episodes for. Her outfits changed mid season
I really love this figure. The realism is on point. The edition of the moving eyes is phenomenal!!!✨😍✨😍✨
Me too!
Bro you were my childhood i watch your videos all the time for fun your the reason i collect figures i love these kind of videos
Oof Justin feeling so old right now! 😉
Damn thanks for sticking with the channel!
Young Ahsoka: Master!
Anakin: Hurry up, Snips!
Love it!

It's not that suit I don't think
Wow wow wow!!!😍🤩😍🤩 This headsculpt is on point!!! Beautiful!

No this is the retconned version of her original outfit since they clearly realized her original tube-top look was...questionable.
@@jeebus2313 Since it’s a flashback, I don’t think this is a retcon. There’s already a few creative liberties taken during this vision.
Fair!
Wow, never thought Hot Toys would make this figure. In my opinion the head sculpt looks alright. I don’t think I will ever get this. Awesome video!
Oh ok!

@jeebus2313 yep that's correct. Been a while since I watched the Ahsoka show. Rewatched it today for clarification.
In the show she had one
It's based on the Ahsoka show, not the Clone Wars animation.. the Sideshow Collectibles version has two, though..
When ahsoke started having this design she got her second shorter yellow lightsaber
Yeah
Awesome preview and many thanks to Ryan for the footage! I like the design of the costume and the blue with red on the upper torso is satisfying to look at. Besides the colors popping the likeness to the actress is uncanny, if it releases like that it'll look perfect
Ryan is the real MVP

Good
She is!
where are the goggles from?
Not sure honestly
Wonder if Hasbro will come thru with this one.
Not sure!

I think they can do it, this is proof!
@@JustinsCollection Absolutely. You were just saying that you weren't sure why it was so hard. So I said why!!
Nice 👍 tnx Ryan now we need her with the blue & silver costume that she also wore in the same episode and in that scene she had two lightsabers. If they make her she will look awesome beside artisan Anakin and Captain Rex.
Agreed we do!
You mean other than one for a few years back? Like one with this new head sculpt?
She was so good in this show. I think she actually looks very close to the animated character too if that makes sense
Agreed!
Great video😊
Thank you 😁
Any chance they will release the Clone Wars season 8 Ashoka? It was portrayed in the Ashoka series too. It would go along very well with the 501th figures.
I hope so!

They definitely can do it, they just choose not to
Justin do you think they will make a siege of mangalore Ahsoka figure?
I hope so!
Looks really nice, that commando looks BA as well. However i'm still impatiently waiting on Baylan. Saving my money for him.
Agreed!

Yeah fair
we love you Ryan!
We do!
Me encanta e hice mi pre-orden. Pero realmente espero que también produzcan una figura de Morgan Elsbeth
I hope we get her too!
So they are literally doing everyone else but Baylan and Shin?
Thankfully they did make them!
i think ezra could also be next
Maybe!
My only fault with this is with the show. This outfit is from season 3 when she started to have 2 sabers. However, this scene in the show takes place in season 1, where she has 1 Saber. So because of that, this figure isn't accurate to any point in the clone wars aside from the episode of tales of the jedi I think.
This is the retconned version of her original outfit. Her Season 3-5 outfit, while similar, doesn't look like this.
Fair enough
The show should have used this actress instead, it felt more like Ahsoka when she was on screen in my opinion.
I loved Rosario Dawson and thought she did an admirable job especially when interacting with Luke, Sabine and Anakin.
They did use this actress.
@@jorgitoguzman8797 yes, I mean for the entire show.
@@mbphilipblack8993 I hear you.
@@kicknowledgesmith8608 You wanted this teenager to play a 45-50 years old Ahsoka? ;D
They gotta update the lightsabers, aside from the hilts the actual sabers are mediocre dare I say shitty-
Agreed
Gasps screams
This is it
Lol
@@JustinsCollection I think from what I read I know her younger actress was in The New Barbie movie and she was on The Disney Channel Show Stuck In The Middle
It's fucking dumb that figures cost as much as they do and don't have leather. A leather jacket is cheaper than one of these figures.
Fair
