This is a very nicely proportioned and painted rendition of Obi-Wan Kenobi's astromech droid R4-P17 and looks slightly aesthetically nicer than it's 2005 Revenge of the Sith Collection predecessor. However, the action figure is a rather featureless astromech with no tripod leg, no wheels, no clicking head and no accessories. The accessories and features had perhaps been overdone with the Clone Wars Collection version of R4-P17, but it does feel rather like no flair or effort was put into this figure beyond the nice sculpt and it's all moulded in to one piece whereas the 2005 R4-P17 had separately moulded compression tubes on its feet, as well as the rolling action and tripod leg. Okay so there's no gimmickry here, but there's no magic either when it comes to this action figure's potential for play and display.

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.
