A great addition for any Star Wars collector, 90s electronics fan, or Tiger handheld enthusiast.
The R2-D2 Data Droid occupies a nostalgic niche in Star Wars collecting. This item is sought after due to its unique design, charming sound features, and the fact that many units were heavily used by children, making boxed examples harder to find. The packaging includes detailed lore text, diagrams of the toy’s functions, and imagery from the original trilogy. Highly displayable and instantly recognizable.
