1/6 Hot Toys R2-D2 (Artoo-Detoo) - TFA Version

[Rudimus]

Think he looks just fine with Tama 3PO myself. But a HT 3po will be interesting, but no TFA version 3po for me.

Is the front blue panel supposed to be loose?

How does the light up work on this one ? Touch panel like the SS version or switch ??

It has an on off switch under the dome and then there's a touch sensor on the dome.

The sounds on mine are so quiet like someone put a cover on the speaker. I'm requesting a replacement dome from SS.

Wow! That looks great! Nice job. How did you get the lights to emit such a consistent pattern of light?

Thank you! Made a HDR from 6 photos using Lightroom.

if anyone can, please post some side by side comparisons of the Sideshow and HT R2-D2, mostly for science but also looking at height differences. Thanks!

Wow... it can be perfectly replaced...... without any issues of it throwing off all the other astromechs being produced by sideshow. It comes in just about perfectly.

I'm also not seeing heavy nuances between the OT style and this TFA version. To be honest... what the hoses? Totally passable. No big deal there.

Looks like SSC R2 is going to put on his sailbarge waitress outfit and this HT can come sit in the front and center display

 

[JCFETT]

It's hard to see from this angle... but looks like the dome panel spacing is MUCH smaller on the HT...

The light on the back is huge!

Is there a double-tap to get the projector lamps on? Or one-touch to light up everything?

One tap turns on one light, double for all.

Oh good, so its exactly like Sideshow's then. Thanks.

What's the difference between OT R2-D2, PT R2-D2 and ST R2-D2, not counting accessories.

One thing I notice is that the rear logic display lights (back of the dome) are multi color in the OT. I think they are all blue & white in TFA.

Let me guess: the OT R2 was in a great trilogy?
