| Sculpt: |
| Yoda is sculpted fairly well. His head is re-used from the Saga Yoda Jedi Knight figure. We assume this is what Yoda looks like as the General in the Clone Wars. He is wearing a vest and strap, which are not easily removable (yet not impossible). Yoda also has a belt which is sculpted fairly well. His head is sculpted very well and it is very detailed. Overall I would rate the sculpt at 8 /10 |

| Paint: |
| The paint application is good. I counted 8+ paints used. His uniform is standard brown with a grey belt. His vest painted fairly well. His head has the most detail with slightly white paint used on his back hair and a darker green to fill in the wrinkles on his face. Overall I would rate the paint application at 7 /10. |

| Articulation: |
| Yoda does not have much articulation at all. A total count of articulation includes; head (1), left shoulder (1), right shoulder (1), torso (1). Although this is the standard for Yoda figures, it would have been nice if elbow articulation and leg articulation was added. Overall I would rate the articulation at 4 /10. |

| Accessories: |
| Yoda comes with two accessories, his Lightsaber and a Hoverchair. The green Lightsaber handle is made of plastic and the blade is not removable. The hilt also seems to be painted too low (although I believe Hasbro has now fixed the error). The Hoverchair can open up spreading the four panels and revealing its core. Yoda can stand on the chair whether it is open or closed. Overall, I would rate the accessories at 7 /10. |

| Packaging: |
| The new Clone Wars card is used for the packaging. On the back of the card, there is an explanation of Yoda's role in the Clone Wars. There is also a "Begun the Clone War has" explanation of the Clone Wars (which is on the back of every Clone Wars card). In regards to the figure, the back of the card explains that the Hoverchair opens. There are 6 figures Clone Wars figures on the back of the card. Overall I would rate the packaging at 8 /10. |

| Availability: |
| Clone Wars Yoda is not that hard to find at all. There is no need to resort to online auctions or vendors. The Clone Wars value packs seem to be much harder to find though. Overall, I will rate the availability a 9 /10. |

| Conclusion: |
| In conclusion, this is the first version of Yoda we have seen in a different costume. It is different but unique, although it may take some time to get used to. |
