Gentle Giant Ahsoka Tano Maquette Reviewed

Description from Gentle Giant Ltd:

Ahsoka Tano is assigned to be Anakin Skywalker's Padawan. She graduated to Padawan at an early age, in part, as an effort by Master Yoda to teach her new Master, Anakin Skywalker, a greater sense of responsibility, but it was also necessitated by the Clone Wars. Regardless the reason for her advancement, Ahsoka remained eager, almost overly so, to prove herself worthy of her status as a Padawan.

Ahsoka Tano is depicted by Gentle Giant Ltd poised to strike her opponents as she safeguards Rotta (Jabba's son); tucked away in her backpack.

I was rather impressed with this piece the moment I opened it. Although these maquettes are on the lighter side, the detail is quite nice. Packed very securely inside the styrofoam shell, Ahsoka and Rotta arrived in perfect condition. The paint applications are dead on when compared to the television Ahsoka we all know and love. I was especially impressed with her facial features and lightsaber. Both were painted extremely well. The only piece that requires any assembly is the lightsaber blade itself. While very fragile, it fits perfectly over the little notch protruding from the lightsaber hilt showing Ahsoka in her trademark reverse held pose. This is a fine addition to the Animated The Clone Wars Maquette line.
