Re: Speculation : Hot Toys Disney+ Figures "The Mandalorian" + "Cassian" + "Kenobi"

Nah its going be an epic show-down between Mando (with his Beskar spear) against dark saber of Gideon to end SS2, its pretty obvious at this point.

No to mention this guy doesn’t even know where they are right now.

And there’s no going straight to anywhere. We’d probably an episode or two getting stuck on a jungle planet with killer monkeys and an oasis planet to help people get water from some tyrant first.

lol, and don't forget Boba Fett, the guy needs his damn armor back :))
 
Re: Speculation : Hot Toys Disney+ Figures "The Mandalorian" + "Cassian" + "Kenobi"

That was pretty badass. I was never a big Clone Wars fan, but grew to really like Ahsoka anyway and thought Dawson brought her to life perfectly.

Gotta say though I've never understood the point of the white lightsaber blades. They work well enough in animation, but in live action just don't look nearly as cool as the red, blue or green versions unfortunately. And it frankly looked like she was just swinging around some fluorescent light bulbs the entire time. :D

I already ordered the TCW Ahsoka but will have no problem ordering this as well, since there are so many great posing options that you kinda need more than one Ahsoka anyway.

Yeah but Mando has OCD. He's got to get that final thigh armour.

It just doesn't look right in the mirror.
 
Re: Speculation : Hot Toys Disney+ Figures "The Mandalorian" + "Cassian" + "Kenobi"

I think Hoody should add "Clone Wars" to the speculation title, while "Cassian" has apparently sinked into oblivion lol.

Nah, I'm thinking Cassian will have a totally different spy vibe (ala Marvel style using different movie styles in universe). Once it's out we'll all love it I'm sure.

Besides I just want my Hot Toys Cassian figure to "almost" round out the Rogue One team !!

Yeah he does, remember that Mimban mechanic put the tracker on Mandos ship on Navarro.....
 
Re: Speculation : Hot Toys Disney+ Figures "The Mandalorian" + "Cassian" + "Kenobi"

I wonder if Hot Toys will re-use the sculpt ? Lekku seem pretty similar in length. Headband is different though and Lekku paint colour is different.

Ahsoka outfit in the Mando is way cooler though imo !

Hmmm

I'm digging her realistic outlook in live action more than in TCW, ****** she was such a bad@ss. She's the only Jedi who capable of staying alive after countless battles with AsajJ Ventress, General Grievous, Darth Maul and Darth Vader :clap.

She came out better in live action than I thought she would (or is that feared?). Lighsaber battles is def a step down though. Just rewatched the episode and then the Maul CW S7 ep and the Rebels Vader duel and she was so dynamic in those vs so static in Mando. Obvious excuse is Roasrio is not a fighter and athlete to the level needed but with all that makeup they could have subbed a good duelist in. Regardless, I am happy with the live action debut and would add the figure to the collection... plus CW season 1, 3 and Rebels :lol

Have we had more Mando series figures announced by Hot Toys than those from TLJ and TROS combined now?

I have my doubts Hot Toys will PO live action Ahsoka before Anim? Ahsoka is ready to ship. Also, i'm wondering if we'll see her again this season. I have a feeling this episode was an introduction to a spin off series. That would certainly incite Hot Toys to delay Ahsoka and release her under her own series subline.
Right now, i see Hot Toys concentrating on Gideon, a couple more troopers and, with some luck, a Cara and/or Greef.
 
Re: Speculation : Hot Toys Disney+ Figures "The Mandalorian" + "Cassian" + "Kenobi"

They can't have the Yuuzhan Vong post-ROTJ because they would be demoted as a menace since they isnt mentioned in the Sequel trilogy, the big bad villain in the Filoniverse is gonna be Trawn.
I think if they continue the Rey saga it would be awesome to have them as a villain, imagine all new gear for the new new republic and a Star Trek futuristic tech to show the future of Star Wars.

We should care about what went down in the ST why? Make the ST work around The Mandalorian, not the other way around. Better still, scrap the ST all together and re-imagine it as some alternate universe nightmare fuel.
 
Re: Speculation : Hot Toys Disney+ Figures "The Mandalorian" + "Cassian" + "Kenobi"

At least Mando Ahsoka's elbows are covered in fabric so we won't need to worry about articulation and damage.

I think she looks good but could look better. The blue contacts look really bad in some scenes, good in others. Her Lekku and Montrals should be bigger and longer. We've seen in plenty of canon sources that Togruta's Lekku and Montrals grow as they mature, Ahsoka is 45 now, not 14 and hers are still Clone Wars length, we've seen them longer in Rebels, like down to her waistline. I know they may not be practical for action scenes in live-action, but Disney/Lucasfilm have ILM working on this show, they could make it work. It worked for Shaak Ti in the prequels.

Bit of a rant, but I like consistency.

:lecture

The length of her lekku was the only thing that stood out to me as 'off' with her character. In all other respects I was sold that she was the older version of her cartoon self.

Shrinkage owing to age isn't even an reasonable explanation. :lol

Side by side, the Hot Toys figures are going to look odd if you wanted to show her progression from teen to adulthood.

Maybe it's a temperature thing...

This occurred to me as well, although I really liked the design aesthetic. I think the long lekku on females were originally designed to further distinguish the genders, and longer lekku equated to being more feminine or sexier. For Torgruta kids, having short lekku that continue to grow as they mature makes sense. Maybe Lucas will provide some type of in-canon explanation for Ahsoka’s relatively shorter lekku length and montral height (for example maybe she clips the lekku to control the length for practical or religious purposes). I might be wrong, but I believe the physiological purpose of lekku was to store excess fat for nutrition and montrals are like antennae. So another explanation could be that the lekku length may have adapted to the planet’s distinct environment or climate. From what I can tell there hasn’t been an outcry from the fandom, so they may never address it or briefly touch on in a comic or visual dictionary.

Reusing the Clone Wars head sculpt would go against HT’s brand and design philosophy. Their Mandalorian Ahsoka will have a lifelike Rosario Dawson portrait. Hopefully it’s already being worked on. While Dawson as Ahsoka has been the worst kept secret in The Mandalorian, it was still great to finally see her in the role. I think she did a fantastic job.
