1/6 Star Wars The Mandalorian - 1/6th scale Ahsoka Tano & Grogu Collectible Set

[momaw]

I'm just gonna get both. Base problem solved.

 

[Asta]

I prefer the Clone Wars sculpt with the longer lekku that don't resemble foam rubber so much as they did in the live action, and the wide-eyed expression with the mouth that looks like she's about to speak, or swear under her breath.

However, I prefer the much more detailed Mandalorian costume with it's intricate patterns over the simple clean lines on the younger Ahsoka.

I'm looking forward to both as different representations of her at different stages of her life.

Re: Star Wars The Mandalorian - 1/6th scale Ahsoka Tano & Grogu Collectible Set

The standard base just doesn't evoke what it is supposed to in my eyes. It's partially coupled with the fact that posing her in a fashion that evokes that scene requires the Magistrate and/or a longer base.

Deluxe for me, easily. But everything else looks sublime. I'm very impressed by the figure as a whole. I guess I didn't realize just how Samurai-inspired her garb is in show, but I love it. She'll really stand out on the shelf.

Well said. One thing I noticed is TCW Ahsoka's lekku are more shinier. Yes, she is young, no aging creases are expected, but shine? It's so pristine that backward to forward flow (over the shoulders) of the lekku is not clearly noticeable as in Mando Ahsoka.

I really do hate that they offer different bases for two versions of the figure though. If Im buying the deluxe I should be getting everything. Especially since I hate those dynamic stands.

Is it confirmed you don?t get both? It?s implied the deluxe gets those ?additional? items

I see that.

The way this stand is designed, it works more for Morgan Elsbeth because it faces the water rather than the opponent:

I rarely think of my figures as replicating specific scenes, but as representing the characters at times before, in between or after. For me they're literally an extension of what we're shown.

In that regard the stand works for me as representing an evocative location, as simple as the sculpting of the stand itself is.

It will be something new, as opposed to another sand base (!), or the ESB Yoda base that I already have.

I really don't care for the Grogu this time, nor did I for the one that came with the Nappy Trooper as I skipped that one.

It's confirmed in the HT description that can be read on the BBICN forum:

...a Calodan garden bridge view platform with pool components and garden background card (Only unique to the single-pack version of Ahsoka Tano).

I was hoping for Skywalker.....why are YOU here???

Nice addition to the Mando line but I think I may pass.
TCW version for me.

Wow now DX figures have regular and deluxe versions? I thought the DX originally stood for Deluxe :

I think it looks fantastic though. Not sure I will get this version or just wait for her eventual solo show version.

That's a fair assessment. I think we all try to take inspirations and put out own spins on things in the process. I can appreciate that folks would prefer that showdown scene as the image they want to convey on their shelf.

The DX base is, at least as far as I can tell, not the same as the ESB Yoda one? This one is equipped with a port for a flight pole and is far taller. I also dislike the placement of the plaque on the standard version. If it's to be an environment base, the plaque detracts a bit too much for my liking.

All to be considered, I think I'd give my hand at making a longer version of it myself. It wouldn't be hard to do a clay sculpt and do a pour up of resin along the side for water.

You dont get both it seems.

So DX means Pers now? No second head sculpt, hardly any accessories. Deluxe Mando came with more.

I wasn't sure, but I looked at my Yoda base and think it is the same, just facing the opposite direction and with a hole drilled for the support.

I took it off the shelf so I could see it at the angles that HT photographed the Ahsoka version, and the shapes of the base and tree look to line up.

She?s up for preorder at Toys Buying Agent. $266 for regular, $293 for deluxe.

So, they protect sculptor and painter from the negative social media reaction now.

It really puzzles me that there is no light up function with this figure, which is strange, considering her sabre role played in this episode.
I also think that both eyes and face overall are not exactly there (and HT can do more definite sculpts). It is almost as if they just tweaked their previous CW Ahsoka version.

I'm not so sure. The tree looks different to me, as does the inclination of the back wall. I suppose the Secret base photos will be the deciding factor.

Here are some insta shots of the sculpt. I'm calling it now: this is the 2021 equivalent of Yondu's sculpt. It's absolutely phenomenal; this'll be their current posterchild sculpt, easily.
