I don’t know what changes they made, but whatever they were, the results are wonderful. The Hera figure looks exactly like a realistic version of the cartoon character. I love the neat details, like the tiny blaster and its accompanying boot holster. The figure is also poseable, so you can easily recreate almost any of Hera’s scenes from Star Wars Rebels.
