Star Wars - The Saga Collection - Basic Figure - R5-D4 Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Three times a charm as the old saying goes and this is the third generation casting of this irreparable and irrepairable droid from the first classic STAR WARS movie.
The audience first and last meets R5D4 at the foot of a sandcrawler that is owned and operated by Jawas, the scavengers of the desert.
R5D4 has a retro 50s look, the rhomboid dome with the sparse features and the antennae reminding of George the Robot of the 50s Lost In Space movies.
The R5D4 action figure has a stark realism as the action figure is painted with a dusty grimy patina as if it had sat through one too many dirty sandstorms in the desert.
Unlike the R2D2 Coruscant Sentry which I also own, this R5D4 action figure has a swivelling head.
However, unlike the R2D2 Coruscant Sentry the R5D4 does not light up and make sounds.
An indispensible item even to the most minimalist of STAR WARS action figure collections, the R5D4 is a good action figure that I will have with me for all time.

Just as Owen Lars purchases this battle-worn astro droid, the droid's motivator blows a fuse. Disgruntled and dissatisfied, Owen asks for another R2 unit and selects R2-D2 after C-3PO recommends his services. Little does Owen know that his seemingly simple droid selection will turn out to determine the fate of the galaxy.
This collectible R5-D4 action figure is a memorable character from the Star Wars saga and an awesome addition to your collection! Includes exclusive hologram figure. Measures 3.75" tall.
