With his battle scarring, blasted open panels and exposed wiring, this battle-damaged R2-D2 action figure makes for a brilliant representation of Artoo in the aftermath of the Battle of Yavin. Unlike some previous scene specific R2-D2's such as the Original Trilogy Dagobah R2-D2, this Battle of Yavin astromech droid figure still has plenty of articulation and his tripod leg. The tripod leg, however, is not moveable or retractable.

When you consider that Kenner gave us our first battle-damaged X-Wing Fighter to represent the Battle of Yavin in the late 1970s, we had to wait nearly 30 years before the Original Trilogy Collection R2-D2 (Battle of Yavin) action figure which represented the astromech droid in the aftermath of the destruction of the first Death Star! In fact even the R2-D2 dome on the Kenner X-Wing Fighter had been unscathed whilst the rest of the ship had battle damage stickers.
All Star Wars action figures, vehicles, collectibles and Star Wars toys shown on this website are the 3.75 inch scale and from my own private Star Wars collection unless otherwise stated. Where possible original vintage accessories have been used but in some instances I have placed Kenner Star Wars figures with either reproduction weapons and accessories or for Hasbro figures close approximations have been used. This is mostly the case for modern Star Wars lightsabers where the correct item can be very difficult to identify on some ocassions. Vintage Star Wars action figures are shown with their original weapon or accessory when I have them. When a vintage Kenner action figure is shown with an accessory which is not original I have tried to point this out where possible.
All of the Star Wars action figures shown were purchased second hand, usually incomplete, and in bulk. They have been reunited with their original weapons and accessories where we could get hold of them.
