yeah I know, another ahsoka... blah star wars clone wars bs...
ok try to look at this as a stand alone custom and lets try and put our hatred for lucas' franchising madness aside.
so what will happen to ahsoka tano when all is said and done? Anakin kills all the padawan's, younglings, and the rest of the jedi are hunted down right? Order 66, yada yada... this is my twisted version of the tale:
As Anakin is teaching Ahsoka she soon learns that he is not a conventional Jedi. Full of emotions and rash actions much like herself. She learns from this and follows him as he walks the path to his destiny. As he becomes farther and farther from the jedi way Ahsoka realized where he is headed. Her eyes are opened in a great epiphany and she realizes the hipocracy of the jedi order, she sees the disorder and caos of the clone war, she learns the true corruption of the republic and the senate.... all this culminates into her defection from the jedi order and her retreat into a life of secrecy and solotude. She continues honing her force skills but is no longer a jedi, and yet not fully a sith. She is somewhere in between. Still, she is fueled by emotion and, by jedi standards, is an agent of the dark side.....
so "dark" ahsoka... ok... the truth is that the microsister el figure came with the black miniskirt and I thought it would look better than the crappy soft goods skirt ahsoka's figure comes with. so I went with the black and based the rest of her costume on it. then I came up with the crazy twisted backstory.

Finished:
as you can see from the comparison pics the microsister body was an almost perfect match to the size of ahsoka. It amazes me how articulated these micro figures takara made are. I can't believe that hasboro won't do the same with their figs. Although I can see that the whole choking hazard crap would be an issue as the micro figures parts are constantly popping apart.
One thing I did like is that it came with the extra hand sculpts. Adds alot more possibilities in poses and such.
I did sculpt some on the figure. I didn't like how flat chested the figure was to begin with so I did a little breast enhancement... The neck ball was way too small and the neck was too short so I chopped off a section of Ahsoka's neck from her original fig and grafted that onto the microsister figure with a pin and some apoxi sculpt. The neck is a little on the long side now and is realy noticable in the photos... but there wasn't much I could do with it. I could have cut the neck section I cut out a little shorter I supose.....
well anyway, tell me what you think guys.
