This R2-D2 action figure was released in
2005 in the Revenge Of The Sith Collection.
Hasbro gave the figure five joints and included
no accessories.
Here is what we noticed when we took a closer look at the Droid:
- This R2-D2 was released individually carded
- The figure is a re-work of the Star Wars SAGA R2-D2 (Coruscant Sentry) from 2002, but features different sound bites and a 2004 copyright datestamp
- This R2-D2 was taken out of its packaging eight years after its release and the batteries were dead
- Luckily there is a screw on the back which allows for the battery to be exchanged
- R2's front panel is a button, when pressed, the droid will play various sound bites and the front eye will light up
- Because of the electronics, the dome can't be turned
- The middle leg can't be removed or moved into the body, so the droid will always be in a 3-legged position
- The feet don't have rolls in them
The articulation details are as follows: 2 swivel legs, 3 swivel ankles
