What is Hot Toys thinking?
>>11777055Popular character who's got another season of her show coming out
>>11777055…that she was a good friend?
>>11777055Happy they gave her a seamless body and a bunch of accessories because shes a smaller figure. Are the blast reflection parts new? They look slick with the light up lightsaber.
>>11777055They were thinking: ToT
Why such boring faces? I remember her being smuggy
So how anatomically accurate is this
>>11777117Because it's super realistic live action depiction where everyone is boring and serious.
>>11777055What is the point of Hot Toys? Isn't the articulation highly limited by the seamless limbs and/or soft goods that you can't even keep them in a semi-dynamic pose for too long or you damage the materials. That's on top of the range of motion being even less than even a Marvel Legends. Like the one pose in the OP pic isn't even impressive but it's probably the most this figure can do.I see Hot Toys collections and they're all just in neutral standing poses behind glass, why not just collect statues at that point?
>>11777129>or you damage the materials.That happens without you even having to open the box.
Her chest looks strange. Almost like it's just a solid sculpted thing, not a tube top over a base body.
>>11777133It's likely sculpted on. Would be weird it it was a removable piece. Sexo aside it probably wouldnt stay on well.
>>11777055If only she were life sized
>>11777055Reminds me of the lifesize NECA M3GAN doll
>>11777149Did anyone do anything with that?

>>11777203Screencap it, I'm not becoming a zuck cuck.
>>11777055S̶l̶a̶v̶e̶ M̶e̶t̶a̶l̶ B̶i̶k̶i̶n̶i̶ Hutt Slayer Leia when?
>>11777055Think anyone who buys this should take a seat.
>>11777227With cute girls
>>11777208
>>11777208It's just hundreds of zoomies saying that it's inappropriate and should be cancelled with lots of crying emojis.There, by not having to read it I saved you a few brain cells.>>11777263Cute AND funny.
>>11777269Castrated society
>>11777269Ironic that a generation obsessed with "lost media" is so hellbent on burying shit they deem inappropriate, especially shit like this that no one thought anything of until just a few years ago
>>11777129I think the profit margin for them is better. There are always people who want something that looks like they walked off the screen. With statues you have to have everything done with painting and that can be costly and harder to mass produce. But dolls you can get a lot done with soft goods and save money with shared bodies underneath most of the time. With action figures you have this dilemma of expected pricing even though they require many molds and decent amount of painting, but with these fancy dolls you somehow feel they are worth the high pricing. With the right IPs they make tons of money probably.
>>11777269Is this illegalOoooh, it feels illegal
>>11777269There's nothing particularly sexual about OP's figure... I'm not understanding this reaction.I mean it looks pretty uncanny, but that doesn't seem to be what they are complaining about.
>>11777286They are probably projecting.
>>11777129They have a nice presence in hand.They also manage to pull of subtle movements better than most regular action figures. You're able to achieve enough range of motion a lot of these characters would've had in live action movies they're from, which is to say nothing too crazy, but they're not as stiff as people act. They're also like mini replicas of the costumes and outfits themselves, which is another element of interest to people in the museum display sense. Statues are a big commitment and you have to really like the scene they're depicting.
>>11777055if she had the cartoon head it'd be fine with this design, but once you start involving real people with stuff like this it's bordering the line
>>11777227I mean they're pretty big
>>11777269How do these people make it through the day?
>>11777321I dunno man. Somewhere a child bride is being wed but these fucks feel sick over a literal toy
>>11777055"Mousecucks will buy anything!"They're right, too.
>>11777269The funny thing is, by commenting this stuff all of these people have outed themselves as looking at the figure and having sexual thoughts, and they are commenting trying to virtue signal. You know what people that didn't have sexual thoughts did when they saw this figure? NOTHING.
>>11777055>>11777269Wasn't that her actual outfit?You know... in a kids show?
>>11777349Yes, and the outfit was literally designed with George's input, the same man people praise endlessly nowadays. It's funny too, lot of people fucking hated this character when she was first introduced cause she was seen as something made to appeal to girls.
>>11777269makes no sense, acting like the toy maker just decided to make an original outfit...
>>11777354Nostalgia can make anything look good. Look at Sonicfags starting to get nostalgic for Shadow and 06.Horrible fucking poochie character though, only pedos and underage like her.
>>11777344It's actually the mousecucks that loved the fact that Shitsney are trying to retcon this costume out of existence in the Ahsoka and Tales of the Jedi series that are kicking up the biggest stink.
>>11777349yesif anything the hot toys version is more tame since it seems like the tube top is bigger than the one she had in tcw
>>11777269Where were these people in 2008? Or in the 2020s with Omega?
>>11777383they were children in 2008 and didn't care about star wars and women in nuwars are infamously sexless, this figure is a small glimpse into george lucas' mind and it causes them to go insane
>>11777269Gentlemen...>>11777055Looks disgusting, tho.
>>11777179Give me $500 and I’ll show you what I’ll do.
>>11777055Is it just me or does she look kinda fat?
>>11777377>starting to get nostalgic for Shadow>starting
>>11777382She was a sticc in TCW. They got some fat girl to play her in the live action.
>>11777394Latina genes
>>11777398Hit it from behind then
>>11777055I wish I had a little Cailee, out of my price range though.
You know, in a weird way (no, not in *THAT* way), the more I look at it, the more I like it. The uncanny valley effect almost faded away from my perception.
>>11777269Someone commented that the HotToys CEO needed to be Mangione'd.Imagine wanting someone murdered over a toy wearing a tube top. These people are mentally unwell.
>>11777064>Popular characterStopped reading there. There's nothing in SW that's popular, and hasn't been in a while.
>>11777442Looks too much like a white American kid in orange facepaint
we were so close to greatness
>>11777471This is retarded.They should just reduce her boobs (neither the character nor the actress had them that big, what the fuck?) and make her a tad bit skinnier. And make the tube top look like it actually naturally wraps around her torso and applies pressure, instead of it being some weird tacked on sculpt.
>>11777474>They should just reduce her boobs (neither the character nor the actress had them that big, what the fuck?)They did this because they're too scared to sculpt and produce a seamless body with teen/child sized breasts, the tits must be big enough that the body looks adult out of context. It's why child characters in modern games look so uncanny, they literally just scale down adult models because nobody on the design team wants to be the guy to model child bodies.
>>11777086No panties in space, Luke!
The funny thing is Hot Toys already made this character. They're probably just trying to squeeze some cash out of the mould.
>>11777482>Her boobage shrank with age
>>11777483Isn't that what literally happened with Allison Bree?
Why is the Ashoka makeup so ugly? Ariana greenblat is pretty hot but she looks like a fat retard in the show.
>>11777496No eyebrows, no hair - which is a big part of being hot, obviously. The forehead prosthetic with painted Ahsoka face tattoos makes her face look like an egg. There is also no "space" between her eyebrow bone and eyeballs, if you know what I mean. So it looks weird. And she is a lil bit chubby.Makeup/prosthetics they used were shit and cheap, but also Ariana doesn't fit Ahsoka physically - she is much shorter than the animated character, and she is not as fit, she has this uncanny baby face that makes her look way younger than a teenager - she doesn't look much like the character. Just kinda mid casting. She did good with acting her scenes and even fighting, but she's a bad choice for Ahsoka. They should have looked at teenager athletes. That's what Ahsoka should have looked like. She's an ascetic warrior monk, who has been training and fighting her entire life. She's not some random normal girl from America. And that's what Ariana is. That's the big part why people are uncomfortable with this figure - she looks like a weird uncanny baby. Your face has to be lean and perfect to look good in all that makeup and without brows and hair.
>>11777442>The uncanny valley effect almost faded away from my perception.See an eye doctor immediately, while you still can.
>>11777269these niggas should stay away from public beaches because their cortisone will be spiking
>>11777377>Look at Sonicfags starting to get nostalgic for ShadowYou mean the second most popular character in the franchise for 20 years now?
>>11777522Yeah it’s total cognitive dissonance because real girls are already sexually active whores wearing skimpy clothes by the age of 14. And that’s fine because empowerment or whatever. But a fictional cartoon of a 14 year old just existing and not even sexualized “feels illegal”. Why does their mind immediately jump to pedophilia when they just see a cartoon kid? And you get accused of pedophilia for liking said cartoon which is again not real. These people would be the same ones to disagree (rightfully so) that violent video games make you violent. But don’t see the through line to how this is basically the same thing. This whole exercise is so tiring but constant now.
>>11777496I mean it essentially gives her painted on/fake eyebrows, which looks unflattering.
I genuinely don't understand all the complaints, the figure looks good to me, the face included. I'd buy it if I actually cared about the character at all.
>>11777618I'd get it if I could afford hot toys or had any interest in 1/6 slop at all. I'll just wait for the SHF.
>>11777621Those joints look pretty flimsy
>>11777618The complaints are from people who don’t like the live action design or from retards mindbroken by pedo hysteria. As a product, there’s nothing really wrong with it, just your typical hot toys and looks more or less like what was on screen. Personally I don’t like the live action design either and prefer the stylized animation look.
>>11777055Do Hot Toys have nipples?
>>11777471What?
>>11777474Obviously they knew people would post pics of her topless if it was removable
>>11777482What's the underlying body on this one look like?
>>11777621Gah, those arms are ugly.Also surprising to get multiple tube top ahsokas now. Makes me wonder if they considered using that outfit for the fortnite skin
>>11777652>retards mindbroken by pedo hysteriaThis is everywhere on the Internet now. Dunno about real life.
>>11777269wow look at all the pedophiles
>>11777689I mean all those retards exist in the real world too. They are just more likely to keep their opinions to themselves irl or be afraid to disagree/be confrontational when in conversation. That scares me desu knowing everyone around me is probably brainwashed by an internet echo chamber. I don’t trust anyone anymore.
>>11777349I think it's more about the figure being based on her live action actress rather than her cartoon design.
>>11777055I don't see anything wrong with it. Then again I don't sexualize children. Besides, the figure is giving me "Christina Ricci" vibes for some reason.
Pre-orders are up. It's only 238 euro!https://www.sideshow.com/collectibles/star-wars-ahsoka-tano-padawan-hot-toys-915284
>>11777776As expected, online hysteria didn't stop them. Based.
>>11777777>>11777776Fuck you Disneed, your shit’s gonna flop
>>11777769>Christina Ricci in a tube topYes please
>>11777777She doesn't even looks like a kid, more like a midget black woman in her 20s
>>11777777profoundly wasted
Next to a realistic version, a black series figure wouldn't look very controversial. So black series when?
>>11777825give it another couple years the fact that this was greenlit at all despite nuwars hating women showing any skin tells me that they're starting to ease up on it
>>11777745Exactly what I was thinking. They love to project.
>>11777835The pendulum always swings back...
>>11777866i think it's a combination of kennedy not being around anymore and filoni on the brink of losing the mandate of heaven
>>11777055should use the clone wars animated series headalso when you pull her tube top down you should be able to see her nipples
>>11777868Tube top Ahsoka is the key to all of this.
>>11777776I thought about getting it but I really don't like the idea of silicone skin on figures and the lack of any emotion she has, good on those of you that go for it though
Chuds celebrating this and buying 5 to own the libs is really cringe desu. I remember when trannies bragged about buying 20 Oshas from Acolyte to own the chuds. Do neither realize how retarded they are?Anyway this doesn’t feel like a big deal to me. Slave I is still erased, slave Leia is still blacklisted, and Rey is front and center of the new Fortnite update
>>11777921tube top ahsoka is the canary in the coal mine for slave leia coming backif this does well, it'll let the company know that fans will buy figures a little more on the risque side of things (even though they have data from before the buyout that already proves this)the idea that there's even a controversy is laughable, this is the outfit ahsoka debuted in and had for the better part of two seasons of tcw, the biggest problem with the figure is that the actress isn't a good for for ahsoka's likeness, not that she's wearing her lucas approved tube top
>>11777868>Tube top Ahsoka is the key to all of this
>>11777925They already know fans will buy sexy characters, they hate that and don't want them to be able to. It's not about money to them it's about sending a message.
>>11777932i think a lot of that was due to who was in charge of the company for the past 13 yearsthe fact that this figure is being made at all tells me that something internal has shifted, however slight it may be
>>11777921>Normal people buy something they wanted anyway and mock the people who tried to stop it happeningvs>Deluded self-mutilating freaks panic-buying figures to try and send a message, crying whilst pretending they're laughingBut sure, totally equivalent.
>>11777939>Normal people
>>11777777Checking those Orange Butt Cheeks
ashoka is a boring design
>>11777921>Chuds celebrating this and buying 5 to own the libs is really cringe desuAt most I see like one or two buyers in this thread. Even fans of the character who think Twitter is being retarded still think it doesn't look great.
>>11777993Fitting for her character and lack of clear purpose in the narrative.
>>11777993she got nerfed in everything post tcwreal togruta women have long and supple lekku and montralssince filoni is a hack and cheaped out with her live action depiction, ahsoka must forever be a togrutalet and mogged by shaak ti
>>11778013her face was weirder in the concept art star wars has always been boring
Hot Toys sucks. I remember when they were popular when they were offering the best articulation that was available at the time. Now, they just cater to casuals who want to build a mini wax museum.
>>11777055>>11777482>>11777621>>11777776>>11777777Is she supposed to be wearing leggings or pantyhose/nylons? The material looks too thick for nylons.
>>11777872>also when you pull her tube top down you should be able to see her nipplesThere's already death threats over this figure as is
>>11777993you're a boring design
>>11778000Her narrative purpose was to be an explanation for why Anakin never qualified for the title of master, another example of Anakin's tendency to form attachments when such behavior is forbidden by the jedi code, and another failure that made him question his worthiness as "the chosen one".
777777 GET
>>11777055>What is Hot Toys thinking?Money. What else?Star Wars collectors will eat any slops handed out to them.
>>11777923Singapore
>>11778365She looks so out of place hahaha
>>11778368So that's not removable right?Asking for a friend.
>>11778476What do you think?
>>11777777>>11778365can’t see this fig next to another character without immediately thinking of the obi wan copypasta
>>11778602
>>11778602>>11778607And she was a good friend.
She looks like a good friend
Looks like fetal alcohol syndrome. The Jews are turned on by that and downs syndrome
>>11778602it was like a constant porno, lukeyou have no idea
>>11777291My entire generation just projects
>>11778731You're turned on by bug eyed noseless freaks
>>11778847Ashoka had a pretty prominent nose in her animation model though?
>>11777282>you can get a lot done with soft goodsyes but then you rely on people with terrible taste who actually think soft goods are an acceptable medium and don't look terrible and retarded
>>11779071Look like crap, or pose like crap, there is always a tradeoff
>>11779071They're acceptable at 1/6, garbage at 1/12.
Video overview:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o4i0zkeHzRA
>>11777129Dunno about hot toys specifically but I’ve got a TBLeague and it’s holding up fine. >>11777055This thing is cursed as fuck, should’ve based it on the cartoon.
And it sold out. Well, that's it.
>>11780109Nevermind, they fucking pulled it and deleted the unboxing video and unlisted it on the website. IT'S OVER. The woke have won, unironically. The hysteria over a fucking tube top was loud enough. Pack it up.
>>11777668And the problem is?
>>11777474They should have made her look like the cartoon and not the TV actress.
>>11780138A bunch of women and trannies who were never going to be Hot Toys customers acted outraged by it.
Yeah, it's apparently just the Sideshow (US Distributor) that pulled it. Although those who had pre-ordered it say it will be delivered to them and it didn't disappear from their cart. The figure was actually already released in Hong Kong and is available for purchase from other non-american Hot Toys distributors. So Hot Toys didn't cave in. Just American distributor. Fucking pathetic, honestly. All it takes is a bunch of freaks on xitter and they're bending their knees. How embarrassing.Here's a full 4K review from the guy who got it from Hong Kong Hot Toys.Actually looks better IRL than it is on the photos. Although still the live-action is kinda eh. You either love it or hate it.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WQzGJqr6euM
>>11780138>>11780268>>11780262Haha what the fuck
People already got it shipped from Hong Kong directly.It's actually less chubby than the version from the live-action show, lol.
>>11778688https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RkTibALwfNg
>>11780280the only one that looks any decent facially in the s7 one
>>11780644And it was a D23 exclusive. Thanks Disney.
>>11780644Apparently it wasn't based on any real actor, and it was just Hot Toys artistic interpretation of what realistic Ahsoka would've looked like. It came out before it was known she was going to be played by Rosario Dawson in Mandalorian S2. It's not only about the face. It's the only one with a correct body build that Ahsoka would realistically have - hyper fit, athletic, lean young adult - and the only one to have correct montrals and lekku of proper height and length. Although I would give her dark fingernails and lips like in animation.>>11780678What do you mean? You can buy it anywhere from any Hot Toys vendor. They made a lot of those.https://www.sideshow.com/collectibles/star-wars-ahsoka-tano-hot-toys-906960Here you go, it's even on discount now.
>>11780728Oh, I mistook it for a different product. My bad.
>>11777269all modern star wars fans should be viciously murdered
>>11781424It's not like they buy Star Wars merch, so it wouldn't hurt the bottom line.
>>11777055LMFAO, people's POCD was triggered so hard that they cancelled the figure despite none of the complainers being potential buyers. After market price guesstimates boys?
>>11781847It was a limited edition, it's only 2500 copies worldwide. So I doubt Sideshow (US vendor) that pulled it had that many to begin with. But I suppose it will get substantially more expensive due to the controversy. I can easily see it being sold for over a $1000 in a few years.
>>11777055The fact that I dont see a problem with it makes me so happy because Im not a fucking weirdo
>>11781662>It's not like they buy Star Wars merchIt's the one thing they consistently do. The alarming regularity at which they consume the slop has essentially destroyed Lego, for one thing.
I don't collect Hot Toys, but I am a pretty huge Star Wars fan and seeing this shit show blow up completely baffles me. Why does anyone have an issue with this figure being made, if the actress signed off on this figure (and I am sure she did. It's a likeness). If the actress doesn't give a fuck, why does anyone have any reason to bitch? Do these idiots think they know better than her? It's baffling.
>>11783254Performative virtue signalling. If you haven't noticed, we are in this weird neo-puritan era, and with the Epstein shit, there is a very real pedo-hunting panic. All the absurd age gap seething bullshit goes here too. Everyone is a fucking pedo. CHECK THIS UNCS HARD DRIVE!
>>11777055>This Toy is going to be HOT!
>>11783164>It's the one thing they consistently do.hasbro sales say otherwise
Sex with padawan ahsoka.
>>11783254It’s a lot easier to get a toy cancelled for a tube top than it is to get someone cancelled for being in the Epstein files. The outraged types always just go for the low hanging fruit, because it’s all they can reach.
>>11783254Hnnng, that tight padawan....
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lhe6Q9vsY0k
>>11780280why do her tentacles get brighter then go back to it's original color?
>>11785030>shit opinions from a shitposter as expected
>>11785034Because >>11780728This was before Ahsoka was brought into live-action and made look like shit and wrong all around. This was Hot Toys own artistic interpretation of what Ahsoka would've looked like in live-action, and it looks much better and more accurate.
>>11777470So exactly what Togruta look like in the live-action films?
>>11778365That's why animation should stay animation.
>>11785556Not really.
>>11785563
>>11785563>>11785564>new fags don't even know the prime rule 34 bait that was Shaak TiStar Wars """fans"""
>>11785580Eh. That's a fucking stretch. Back then you had only fucking, what's his name, Shabby Blue? His shit was grotesque to look at, still is. The only good art from back in the day was miravi. But it was few and far in between.
It's over. Even Hot Toys (Hong Kong) official site erased any mention of this figure. Removed from Instagram too. Blogger photos are all gone.Well, that was fucking hilarious, lmao.
>>11785630Does it really matter though? The figure already got released and people have it.
>>11785647True. It's gonna become mad expensive in the future. Even if the figure is fucking garbage with that ugly fat uncanny live action ugly fat face and shoulder seams. Controversy alone will bump its price.
>>11785030>copyright claim by HybridThe fuck

>>11777274not the same people. like how not all /toy/ is the same people

>>11786066>PragmataThe game the devs marketed with the "uoooh" meme?
>>11786231Devs do the marketing now?
>>11786239So you acknowledge that it was marketed using lolicon slang. Great! Acceptance is the first step. Now I will direct you to Roll's depiction in Marvel vs Capcom, wherein every movement exposes this ten-year-old's panties. But surely, surely these puritanical zoomers are simply seeing things that do not exist and Self Reporting™ when observing trends in Japanese media.Now maybe you can play the "they're fictional + robots bro it doesn't count" card and we can all have a good laugh together.
>>11785979There's no such thing as "problematic media."
>>11786258No I don't actually. That was Twitch emote or something right?At worst it was a marketing team member sneaking a niche meme into marketing material. Personally I think it is more likely that they just chose a widely used emoji and figured that it fit a kid character. More to the point it has absolutely no bearing on the content of the game itself.Classic Roll is somewhat sexualized in merch. Can't say I paid much attention to panty shots in her guest appearance in a 30 year old fighting game though unlike you so I don't have much of an opinion there.>they're fictional + robots bro it doesn't countMore like I don't care. Like at all. If Pragmata were some pervy game full of loli fanservice I would be fine with that. I just don't see it.

>the Popcollectables preorder page has gone down Fuck, now the chinks can’t even preorder it, can they?
Rarest Star Wars toy ever?
>>11787348I wonder if they're gonna even ship the ones out that people ordered now, they may have been ordered to just dumpster them all

>>11777777CHECK
>>11777055The actress shouldve worn this costume in the actual show during the flashback scenes. I dont know why they changed it to the inferior redesigned costume since thats not canonically accurate for when ahsoka first met anakin.
>>11777777I really really wish more companies start to take this approach of ignoring the screeching puritans and telling them to go fuck off and continue on with whatever the twitter outrage mob is whinging about. Thats what these companies shouldve been doing during 2020 and during the height of cancel culture, but those faggy corpo execs couldnt help themselves but to constantly bending the knee to literal who's on twitter and make sweeping changes to billion dollar franchises on a whim or remove tons of classic TV show episodes all because some random nobodies bitched about it online.
>>11786258Stop getting so offended by fake fictional media, cuck.
