Astromech Droid R2-A5

R2-A5 is an astromech droid similar to R2-D2. He can be seen in the original Star Wars movie on Tatooine just before the cantena scene. Unfortunately, this character was edited out in the special edition in favor of some cheesy CG effects.

This particular custom is based on a sensor-scope R2-D2, with a green-themed reproduction sticker. I’m including a reference photo at the bottom of this post for comparison. This astromech’s bio can be found on Wookieepedia here.

• R2-D2 with sensor scope.

It’s a shame that so many of these droids end up in the trash heap, just because the stickers they used don’t hold up to 30 years of wear-and-tear. I’ve taken it upon myself to try and save some of these old R2 units, using my own reproduction stickers in the various myriad color schemes seen in the original three movies.
