This Star Wars: The Vintage Collection figure features R2-SHW, the loyal astromech that served alongside General Antoc Merrick of Blue Squadron during the Battle of Scarif in Rogue One: A Star Wars Story. It is an essential companion piece for anyone who owns Merrick’s X-wing.
Technical Details & Sculpt
- Character Likeness: R2-SHW features a distinct paint scheme that sets him apart from standard units, capturing the specific look of the Blue Squadron support droids. The silver dome and unique paneling details are faithful to the on-screen appearance.
- Utility Design: As an R2-series astromech, the sculpt focuses on the rugged, boxy aesthetic of a functional maintenance droid. It includes the necessary ports and panels that distinguish the R2 line's utilitarian design.
- Articulation: Built on the modern astromech buck, he includes a retractable center leg for stable tripod stances and a rotating dome, providing the standard range of motion expected for R2-series units in the 3.75-inch line.
- Display Utility: His primary value is narrative—pairing him with an X-wing or displaying him alongside other pilots from the Battle of Scarif to complete the Blue Squadron lineup.
Accessories & Equipment
He includes a small, swappable utility arm that can be inserted into the dome or body panels, allowing you to simulate repair or interface tasks.
