12" SS SW Asajj pic

She was awarded Sith Lighsabers from a Sith Lord (Tyrannus) so that makes her a Sith in my book. :maul

 

[Captain Faramir]

The term that I've found to be the most appropriate is Sith Disciple. She can't be a true Sith due to the two-only standard, but she is a follower and user of the Dark Side according to the Sith traditions. Were one of the Sith to die, she would be an immediate candidate for ascendency. So yes, I would put her in the catagory of the Sith because of her direct and viable affiliation with them, even if she is not a Sith Lord. She is a true follower of the Sith ways and is under their jurisdiction, but she is not a governing Lord of the Sith--only a disciple.

Did that help anybody? I tend to hide how much I delve into these things, but I really enjoy the fictional historicity of this kind of stuff.

Heyy its about noon Pacific... any sign of those pictures?

 

[Wor-Gar]

They're up!!!

 

[Wor-Gar]

They're up!!!

YES! Two heads!

 

[Memnoch]

BRILLIANT! There is definatly going to be a fight for this one. Interchangable heads!

 

[JGouse0498]

I had a feeling the exclusive would be an interchangeable head, but I expected an alternate "snarling" portrait instead. A very cool exclusive, but am I the only one who thinks that they should've been reversed (animated portrait being the exclusive instead)?? That way, the regular edition would fit in better with the rest of the line.

Either way, this figure looks great!!!!

 

[rainman]

And the 2 lightsabers connect!

 

[nash]

wow that is bad ass! Im guessing it's going to be war at PPO time tomorrow for this one... :maul

 

[Memnoch]

I love the lightsabers and the tattered cloak really works with Asajj. On the subject of which head should have been the exclusive, I think the white eye version was chosen as the standard because the Clone Wars animated series is about as close to cannon as we are gonna get while the tattooed head was seen in comics, thus more in the EU realm.

 

[pixletwin]

She looks pretty sweet! I definately want the pupils and tats Ventress.

 

[Wor-Gar]

wow that is bad ass! Im guessing it's going to be war at PPO time tomorrow for this one... :maul

Just like the good old days -- server stalls, download impatience...sheer madness. I can't wait!

And of course the "I got my Asajj" thread...

Y'know, that's a good point. I hadn't looked at it that way. And honestly the CW animated headsculpt looks just as realistic, so it won't bother me if I miss out on the exclusive edition. I'm more psyched about the costume and connecting lightsabers!!!

 

[Darth Loki]

I'm so excited to get her on order tomorrow. Finally something to dull the pain of waiting until Sunday. These new pics look fantastic.

 

[darthviper107]

Wow, that is super awesome. I was wondering why there weren't any tattoos on her in the other pics. I must say this one is super cool. I'm wondering though if the sabers just snap together (magnets?) or if they just include a separate two bladed version.

 

[Amanaman]

Is she the only bad girl in SW?

 

[Khev]

Too cool! I prefer the CW head (the cartoon was just too cool) but I'll definitely be there on PPO day for the exclusive.

There's also Aurra Sing and Gordolla the Hutt.

I'm a bit torn on which head I prefer... I kinda like the "iris" one with tats just because she looks more life-like and seems to have a better attitude; more disdain. I guess I'll decide when I have them both in hand.

She'll look great with the Sith... especially Maul.
