Here are mine, a TL and a loose one.
Never understood the card art on this one, it has nothing to do with R2 launching a Sabre to Luke as this scene is on Endor...oh well!
Lovely example. Thanks for sharingDr_Ball_MD said:image
A terrific MOC and loose, Nick! Thanks for sharing, and I couldn't agree more about the card art. Since they used a picture of him battle-damaged, it makes me realise that I would have preferred it if Kenner had made that figure instead of the pop-up saber one, nice though that is.Mini99 said:Nice condition R2, Dr Ball MD!

Thank youMini99 said:Great MOC with a good bubble, surprised to see that you have a graded example, what is it a 85?
Those bubbles on the POTF are so vulnerable.

A third R2 based off the original (charming to be sure, but hardly accurate) sculpt, this time with a permanent hole in his head and a movie-inaccurate lighted half-length saber growing out of it? I genuinely do wish Kenner had chosen to make a battle-damaged R2 instead, but wishing is pointless and this is what they gave us!
I repeat, I do like it these days (although hate the stupid money they're now fetching!), but I'll always wish it was something else. Anyway, here's mine; a loose and a POTF carded:
