1/6 Hot Toys R2-D2 (Artoo-Detoo) - TFA Version

[IndyMOS]

So in theory this could be released in HK anytime in the next month...

You're right it actually could release next month in HK. That would be interesting as I wasn't expecting this until early next year, or even around December at best. I'm glad it's coming earlier though.

SWEET. I have it POed directly from HT so if it does come out that's awesome.

Not a lot of excitement about this guy! I'm debating whether or not to spend my $50 off coupon on him.

Did just that, just now. Don't know if everyone knows, but those $50 coupons expire tomorrow.

Well, I just PO'd this guy. The only absolutely essential figure for my display currently available that I haven't yet pre-ordered. Snow Trooper would have been awkward in the display. Best if I just stick with a couple of Stormies and Vader.

$160-ish isn't too bad.

Just got an email saying this is estimated to arrive early at Sideshow between September - October. Nice! I just wonder if it'll actually come in those months or be delayed.

An early release? What a refreshing change. Thanks for posting, I have R2 ordered at bbts.

Any guess if R2 will be release this fall, or before christmas??

 

[TonTon]

I think Sideshow changed their estimate to October IIRC. So maybe September in Hong Kong?

That make sense, a dealer here in Canada also change is estimate date of release to October.

That's good, some people in HK said TFA Luke is also coming soon. I think they are gearing up for Force Friday and from the previous years, there will be one TLJ figure ready to go by end of Sept and a few out before the movie is released. Got to start saving for these lol.

[parrasmaniac]

this was at SDCC I believe...

 

[earthdog]

I didn't realize he already had a price. Looking good, I can't wait for the OT version.

there are some final production R2 pics on Twitter.

 

[Aliaz]

Looks really nice.

 

[Racetrack]

Difference with OT version apart from accessories? Is the weathering different?

 

[Tee-Kay]

So, Hong-Kong release any day now?

Guess that answers my question
