R2 D2
Recent eBay Sales
R2-D2 touches down on the swamp world of Dagobah in The Empire Strikes Back, slipping into the murky water and getting snatched by a lurking dianoga-type creature before wriggling free to find Yoda's hut. Hasbro captured that grimy arrival in its May 2020 Black Series 40th Anniversary wave, a mud-weathered repaint of the 2017 sculpt with removable dome and leg panels plus a working periscope, part of the same Wave 2 lineup as the TIE Fighter Pilot and Snowspeeder Luke.

About This Figure
R2-D2 from Hasbro's Star Wars Black Series line (Modern Era).
Hasbro's 6-inch premium tier — film-accurate face printing, cloth goods on select figures, and a SKU count deep enough that completionists have given up. The standard for modern Star Wars collecting.
R2-D2's original Kenner figure (1977-78) is one of the three foundational pieces of vintage Star Wars collecting alongside Darth Vader and Luke Skywalker — the sensorscope action variant and the early vs. later production telescoping vs. non-telescoping leg debates are among the most studied variations in all of action figure collecting; virtually every Star Wars line from Kenner through Hasbro Black Series has produced an R2 unit.
