R8-B7 (The Rise Of Boba Fett) Action Figure: Overview

R8-B7 Figure with Boba Fett and Slave one

The Clone Wars Collection R8-B7 figure (The Rise of Boba Fett) is a beautiful astromech droid with a battleship grey body, blue head and yellow detailing. He's very striking indeed and comes with all the standard attachments and tools of the Clone Wars astromech droids. His antenna is particularly good. Unfortunately I'm missing the R8-B7 figure's tripod leg.

The contrasting yellows and blues on R8-B7 are a good match for Jango Fett's Slave one. Matching a droid to a ship in this way is not something we see very often but it also happens (after a fashion) with the 30th Anniversary Collection R5-F7 astromech droid figure whose red and yellow detailing matches the paintwork on the helmet of the Y-Wing Pilot that he shipped with. Strangely, however, R8-B7 is Mace Windu's astromech droid and not Fett's, so whilst R8 is very colour coordinated with the young Bounty Hunter's ship for the Clone Wars Series 2 episodes, he's quite out of keeping with his Jedi owner who is a great fan of purple rather than blue and yellow both for his lightsaber and his own batallion of Clone Troops (see, for instance, the Mace Windu Attack Battalion Battle Pack.

The figure came as part of a substantial Rise of Boba Fett Ultimate Battle Pack which included Anakin, Mace Windu, a young Boba Fett, Mace's astromech R8-B7, Bossk and also a rather large Slave I and a unique Jedi Star fighter. This Slave I is not only quite a bit larger than Jango Fett's Saga Series Slave I, it also has a lot of new features, including an opening side door, three cockpit seats and a Kenner-style rear ramp with a carbonite block to slide in there. The only figures from the battlepack which I don't have so far are Bossk and Mace Windu.

I've had to use the Saga Series Slave I for my photos as I don't have the Clone Wars Collection one.

Other Clone Wars Collection Action Figures




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.
