R2-Q5 is the rare dome-headed Imperial astromech droid from The Return of the Jedi glimpsed briefly on the second Death Star. The contrast between the orange and black makes R2-Q5 a very striking looking atromech droid indeed. Orange and Black are of course a combination of colours seen in nature to indicate danger and in fact, if R2-Q5 had a few more stripes he'd look like a three-legged bumble bee.
I don't have the red Death Star accessory which shipped with the Power of the Jedi R2-Q5 action figure, which is a shame. Packing the holographic Death Star with this action figure teases us with the prospect that R2-D2 might not be the only astromech droid to have carried around the Death Star plans. R2-Q5's backstory on Wookieepedia verifies my suspicion. See here.

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.
