From Toyark:

Kotobukiya has released photos and details for a new limited edition exclusive statue. They are partnering with Barnes and Noble to offer an exclusive R-3PO ARTFX+ Statue from Star Wars: Episode V – The Empire Strikes Back. The statue will stand at 6.5″ tall. Here’s the details direct from Koto:

A Kotobukiya Japanese import! Star Wars ARTFX+ Statues bring you all of the quality and detailing that you expect from an ARTFX release in a great smaller scale perfect for collecting! Next up in this series is a unique protocol droid coming exclusively to Barnes & Noble: R-3PO! A 3PO unit with a long history, R-3 was first seen with the Rebel Alliance in Echo Base on Hoth in Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back. However, more recently it had a cameo in the LEGO Star Wars: The Force Awakens game where it had been reprogrammed to work for the villainous First Order! The droid shares the same humanoid body type made famous by C-3PO, though R-3PO is immediately recognizable with its deep red paint job and bright yellow “eye” sensors.

ARTFX+ Statues are fun-to-assemble pre-painted snap-fit kits that can be put together easily in seconds without glue or modeling skill. At 6 ½ inches tall R-3PO is perfectly scaled (1/10) to the figures in the ARTFX+ line and comes with magnets in its feet for extra stability on the included metal display base. Make sure all of your translation and diplomatic efforts are met with success with R-3PO at your side!

Available in November exclusively at Barnes & Noble, Limited to 1500 pieces

Re: Kotobukiya Star Wars R-3PO Barnes and Noble Exclusive Statue

..........I love these Kotos and see them all the time at my local B&N. That said, they are WAY to much $$ for what they are. Otherwise, I might pick-up a lot of these as they would make great accompaniment pieces.

Check out the latest Barnes and Noble Exclusive coming from Kotobukiya. They have released photos and details for the Star Wars R2-Q2 ARTFX+ Statue. The new Imperial Astromech Droid stands at 4.5″ tall. It will be available in November and will be limited to just 1500 pieces. Here’s more info from Koto:


A Kotobukiya Japanese import! The Star Wars ARTFX+ Statues bring the heroes and villains of the Star Wars universe to life in dynamic 1/10th scale statues, and joining it now is an Imperial astromech first seen in Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope. R2-Q2 was part of the team that boarded the Tantive IV to search out its involvement in the Rebellion, and now you can take it home to root out Rebel spies in an exclusive presentation available only at Barnes & Noble! An R2-series astromech droid built by Industrial Automaton just like the heroic R2-D2, this unit features the familiar barrel-shaped main body and domed head but in a sinister black, gray, and white color scheme perfectly appropriate to the Empire.

Limited to 1500 pieces, the Barnes & Noble exclusive R2-Q2 stands nearly 4 ½ inches tall in the ARTFX+ 1/10th scale. This is definitely the droid you’re looking for and it will be a perfect centerpiece in your Star Wars display!
