My Wal-Mart got the new wave of Clone Wars figures in, which consists of Ashoka Tano, Super Battle Droid, Commander Cody, and I think some refreshes. I grabbed Ahsoka only because, while a part of the animated Clone Wars line, she's realistic enough to add to my Star Wars collection ( I don't care for the animated figures at all). First of all, she's short like she should be, since I assume she's a teen (haven't seen the movie). She comes up to Wild Weasel's shoulders. She's pretty skinny, with her arms about 10 % larger in diameter than a light saber and her mid-torso about the diameter of Wild Weasel's lower leg!. She comes with a backpack to carry around the Huttlet figure, which has adjustable straps so you can put it on larger figures. I tried it on a 25th Snake Eyes, and it's tight. I assume is would fit the skinnier Clone Wars clones just fine though. She also comes with the Huttlet as mentioned above and a light saber. The legs are articulated like most SW figures now, including ankles. She has ball shoulders and cut wrists, but no elbow joints. Like mentioned above, she could fit in with a normal collection mainly because her eyes aren't painted too much like the other animated figures. More like a mix between animated and realistic, and the rest of the paint on the clothes and such is pretty subdued. I guess it helps that she's wearing brown. Like buying an astromech, you may wonder where your $7 went to, but the added accessories help you feel a little better. She's another Jedi on my Jedi/Sith shelf too, so...

They actually did a great job with her. And the Huttlet makes her a must own for me. Thanks for posting this!

Yeah this wave hit Target in my area. I grabbed her, Cody, and Oddball. Oddball is nice and I'm really thinking about getting a few of these if there are enough on the shelf when they have a sale. He has the same body as the Clone Wars clones but he has a pilot helmet (not removable) that more so makes him fit in with regular clones. I kind of like that he has the streamlined body too as a pilot. I figure I can give some of my ships that I've been swapping pilots out their own guy to fly around.

I'll be picking her up, for sure. I'm just glad to hear she was only $7, as the new Legacy figs on HTS have bumped up to 8!

I snagged her and the Super Battle Droid last week as they are both "realistic" enough to blend in with the rest of my collection.

I actually liked the anakin from clone wars (but am waiting for the battle pack where he should have better articulation.

But Ahsoka was a pleasent surprize, I like her figure a great deal. I grabbed her quick before I see clone wars and probably start hatining her LOL.

Plan on buying a super cuase if his oversized uperbody, I think it just looks comedic. Got Cody for my birthday, not a fig I would have normally grabed but nice anyway. I have found these figs are hit and miss. While with some the animated style improves (anakin) others it devolves (Grevious) so its hard to say which way it will go.

I actually came across a Ahsoka figure recently. It looks pretty good, and is the second Clone Wars figure I've purchased. The first was R2, which, compared to a regular R2D2, is different enough for me to consider it another droid.

..Wow that Huttlet is really cool. I may have to pick this fig up for fodder and keep the baby and the papoose.

Had bought Ashoka for my daughter first. Then, seeing it out of package, I decided I needed my own. Was the second clone fig I bought. The first one was Cody. I really like the figure - just wish the body wasn't so skinny.
