Product Features

• Make R2 go forward, or turn reverse in a circle
• Realistic Sounds, Turning Head and Red LED eye complete the effect

These first popped up a little over a year ago....and have been imported by SWSHop.com. They're awesome! They are action figure scale...and there are now a total of 4 in the series.

R4-J9 (?) one of the copper colored ones from ROTS
R2-Q5 (?) the imperial black astromech
R2-D2 (dirty weathered paint job)

I have the first R2 as pictured...loads of fun.

I've been off the path for a bit now, but I'll definately be buying a few of these when I jump back on the wagon.
