Ahsoka Tano
This Ahsoka Tano action figure truly does honor the incredible transformation revealed in theAhsokashow. While Ahsoka has long been a beloved character (albeit after a bit of a rough start inStar Wars: The Clone Wars), her character definitely still had room to grow. Prior to theAhsokashow, she had last been seen inStar Wars Rebels, and it was quite evident that she was still hurting following the events ofStar Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith. After all,Ahsoka fainted when she realized that Darth Vader was really Anakin Skywalker.
Ahsoka was still refusing the title of ‘Jedi,’ even though she was clearly exhibiting the compassion, connection to the Force, and commitment to helping others that comprise a true Jedi.
Moreover, Ahsoka was still refusing the title of ‘Jedi,’ even though she was clearly exhibiting the compassion, connection to the Force, and commitment to helping others that comprise a true Jedi. In light of that, it was clear that Ahsoka still had plenty of progress ahead of her before she was truly healed from Order 66 and the downfall of her beloved former master. Happily, that came inAhsokawhen she enteredthe World Between Worldsand was forced to confront the realities of what had happened throughout the Clone Wars and with Anakin.
In the end, this meant Ahsoka choosing to live and embracing the identity of a Jedi. When she emerged from the World Between Worlds, she was in this outfit, symbolizing her transformation into a Jedi fully aligned with the light side of the Force. As so many have waited to see a happy ending for Ahsoka, this Hasbro action figure is the perfect way to honorAhsoka Tano’sincredibleStar Warsjourney.
