Description[edit | edit source]

The Clone Wars season 1 - 2 outfit

The First variant of Ahsoka represents the character as she appears in Seasons 1 and 2 in The Clone Wars. Her skin colour is orange and is shown on her head, arms and parts of her torso. Ahsoka's head is orange with some white markings to the left and right of her mouth and above the eyes, representing the natural white skin pigmentation on the Togruta species. Ahsoka's eyes are white with blue irises and black pupils. Black eyelashes are printed on the top eyelids. Her mouth has smiling lips printed on. On top of the head is a special piece currently exclusive the the Ahsoka minifigure. The piece is white with dark blue stripes and features lekku, or head-tails, at the bottom, which fall in front of the torso, and small montrals, which are seen as small points on the top of the piece. Ahsoka's green headdress is also on the piece and is printed in green. The torso is mainly orange and has printing of a neckline above a horizontal brown strip of cloth. Below that is printing of a belt with a gold buckle, a pouch and two capsules. Both the hips and hands are brown and her legs are light grey.

The Clone Wars season 3 - 5 outfit

Ahsoka's 2013 variant wears the same headdress and a similar head piece as the first based on her appearance in seasons 3 and beyond in The Clone Wars. The difference in the facial printing comes in the form of a scowl on one side, with the other featuring a wider smile than the original variant. Her torso piece is brown and, unlike the previous variant, covers most of the skin. However, a small triangular splash of orange is located in the center of the chest and two slivers of orange are located at the sides, representing armholes. Ahsoka's arms are orange and her hands brown. Armholes are also printed on the back of the torso, as is a whole in the back, with orange printing used to represent skin. Feminine curves are located on either side of the torso and a dark brown belt with a lighter coloured buckle is located at the bottom, just above the hips. These features are continued over to the back of the torso as well, with a utility pouch printed on in the center of the back of the belt. The hips themselves, which are a lighter brown than the legs, continue the buckle pattern and have printing of a small pouch on each side. In the center of the legs, split into three parts, is printing of a purple flap of cloth with swirling and curved markings. Included with this minifigure are two green-bladed ligthsabers with silver hilts.

Rebels

A Rebels variant of Ahsoka will be released in 2016, in the set 75158 Rebel Combat Frigate, with a new appearance more closely resembling Ahsoka's look in Rebels. Ahsoka's facial markings are thicker, and her eyes are more to traditional minifigure eyes, but with a blue color. Her headpiece is redesigned to be longer and taller, to reflect her older age. Her torso is grey with brown and olive green printing, and her legs are brown with printing that continues the details on her torso. Unlike previous versions of her, Rebels Ahsoka has light blue lightsabers that uses the same curved hilts as Asajj Ventress.

Video game variants[edit | edit source]

Ahsoka Tano in LEGO Star Wars III: The Clone Wars.

Ahsoka makes her first and to date only video game appearance in LEGO Star Wars III: The Clone Wars. Ahsoka's appearance is based on her first physical variant, but her eyes are changed to black dot-eyes, with white pupils and less detailed eyelashes. Like most Jedi, she has the ability to perform a lightsaber throw, attack and deflect lasers with her lightsaber, perform a double-jump, use the Force to attack and build objects, perform actions that only lightsaber wielders can in specified areas, and jump up sets of walls by burying her lightsaber in one wall and leaping to the next. Ahsoka performs attacks with her ligthsaber with a reverse grip, reflecting the style she commonly uses in The Clone Wars series.

In LEGO Star Wars: The Force Awakens, Ahsoka is a part of the Rebels Character Pack DLC, and her character is based on her physical Rebels variant. She comes armed with two white-bladed lightsabers, and has the following abilities:

Can use Agility objects
Can use Force powers
Can climb LEGO walls

Background[edit | edit source]

Ahsoka Tano was a Togruta from Shili. At a young age, Ahsoka was discovered by Jedi Master Plo Koon and raised in the Jedi Temple. Later, when she became Anakin Skywalker's Padawan, she followed her Master on several missions. Her first adventure with Anakin was delivering Rotta the Huttlet back to his father. She also fought in the Second Battle of Geonosis along with her Master, Luminara Unduli and her Padawan, Barriss Offee. Ahsoka also had a role in capturing the bounty hunters Bossk, Aurra Sing, and Boba Fett when they held hostages on Florrum. As the Clone Wars progressed, Ahsoka took to using a shoto (shortened lightsaber) along with her regular blade.

Later, she was framed for blowing up the Jedi Temple Hangar and murdering the bomber. With the help of an unseen person, she escaped her cell and sought refuge in the Coruscant underworld, where she teamed up with Asajj Ventress and, with the help of Barriss Offee at the Jedi Temple, found what appeared to be clues that she hoped would lead to the real murderer. She was later captured by Commander Wolffe after duelling with a masked assailant wielding Ventress's lightsabers. The Jedi Council expelled her from the order and Ahsoka was put on trial by the Senate. The cry for the death sentence gained overwhelming support until Anakin, who had been attempting to track down the true mastermind, revealed that Barriss, Ahsoka's one-time friend, was guilty of both the temple bombing and attacking Ahsoka. The trial dealt with Barriss from then on and Ahsoka was offered a place back in the Jedi Order. However, after considering, she refused, as she felt alienated that the Jedi Council hadn't trusted her and left the Order to find her own path.

Years later, Ahsoka helped form the Rebel Alliance and became known as "Fulcrum". Her identity was eventually revealed to the Ghost crew when they managed to kill the Grand Inquisitor. She eventually headed to the planet Malachor with Ezra Bridger and Kanan Jarrus where she fought her former master, who had become the Sith Lord Darth Vader. Ezra and Kanan managed to escape, and Vader survived, though heavily wounded, while Ahsoka's fate is still unclear.
