One of my all-time favourites, both as a kid and collector. As a kid this looked so close to what appeared in the film that it fascinated me.

I've posted this before but here I am with my brother with our combined SW toys (and the plastic knife that went everywhere with him for a while!) - my R2 can be seen on the left.

And heres the Kenner one I have today. It's not sealed but the box and R2 are in fantastic condition, the box flap is not folded.

I'll try to get some better pictures as soon as I can.

thanks for sharing the pictures, that box looks awesome and cool with the childhood picture 8) do you still have all your childhood items on the picture ? Looks like you have played a lot with the toy, no stickers on the little r2-d2 :shock: mine had the same problem when I was a kid, I was stupid enough to take him with me in the bath :lol: love the leia and solo figures together in the landspeeder

Thanks! All my childhood SW toys are gone, sold in the 80s

The small R2 was my brother's, which is why it's wrecked!

No problem mate, there's the sonic controlled one as well I have that as well picked up recently from the car boot sale

A good variety of R2s here. Like a lot of my 12" my loose R2 was sold a while back, but I still have the RC one

Cool palitoy box 8) I did not know the Radio controlled R2-D2 was a 12" ? :shock: I was planning another thread for that one, but maybe I should cancel that thread :lol:

Another cool box, I have wanted a Radio controlled R2-D2 for a long time. But everytime I see one for sale then it is yellow or missing a part or seller can't tell me if it works or there is no box, inserts or instruction for it and if there is then it is ****ing expensive and only for sale as a buy it now

But I still hope that I will get a nice one in the future

Does it work and what are the 2 parts under the r2 on the picture ? :?

Cheers Lars, the R2 at the bottom is the regular 12” with his Death Star plans.

The RC R2 definitely still works but the steering is temperamental

The only one that has the Death Star plans is the regular one.
