    Comments: Little more than a glorified rehash of the Artoo-Detoo (R2-D2) sculpt, Arfive-Defour (R5-D4) is still one very cool, unique figure. With the new head sculpt, and vac metal neck (along with red deco apposed to R2’s blue), this is definitely a figure that stands on it’s own, albeit borrowed, feet.


    Major Variations: Though all vintage figures have minor variations, the R5-D4 figure has no major variations.

    George Lucas has announced he's done making blockbuster feature films after Indiana Jones 5. He states that one of the factors that weighted heavy on the decision was the negative comments made by fans. The Probe Droid is curious what you think about that.
    We didn't mean it! Please make more movies!
    Boo. I don't like that at all. More movies please.
    We got six movies that tell the full tale. I'm happy.
    Good for you George! You've earned it.
    Thank goodness!
    I don't see the irony here.
