R2-D2 - Astromech Droid

This little droid has seen a lot of action! An integral member of the Rebel Alliance, this R2 unit was recently captured by the 501st during an infiltration mission to recover the plans for the Empire’s next superweapon. If you look closely, you may be able to see traces of his time spent with the Rebellion.

This fully functional R2 has been featured on Good Morning America last November alongside the stars of the original Star Wars trilogy and will be available for pictures alongside the 501st at Free Comic Book Day 2016.
