Astromech Droids!
Posted by Don Dueck on April 3, 2009
Behold my collection of modern (i.e. year 2000+) Star Wars astromech droid action figures:
(click for super-sized image)I believe I have them all except for R5-F7 (still trying to track him down at a reasonable price) and some versions of R2-D2. I’m not really interested in getting all the incarnations of R2-D2, since they all look pretty much the same. The back row in the image above consists of duplicates, but all the other figures are unique (yes, even the two black, cone-head droids on the left side of the second-last row). The front row and the three left-most droids of the second row are all versions of R2-D2; the rest are other droids from various sources (movies, comic books, Star Tours, etc.).
Thanks to Don Solo and his checklist of astromech droid figures for helping me find some droids I was missing.

That’s a horde of droids. I made the picture my desktop image for the day.

I can identify all of them except that one dude right behind R2-KT, and it’s driving me nuts. Who the heck is he?

Heh, don’t feel bad; that one’s kind of a trick. The droid immediately behind R2-KT is actually R2-D2 with comic book coloring. ;-)
