The thing that confuses me too is the fact that the more expensive R2-D2 isn't even officially a UCS set, so we have two non-UCS sets of R2-D2 out at the same time at different prices, confuses me a little bit but they packed in just as much detail into this $100 version so I'm happy with it

@luffyandgokuskits 4 месяца назад

I don’t care what anyone says, including LEGO themselves, it’s a ucs set. No matter what you say to convince me that it’s not, it is. It was released on may 4th, which is the day a UCS set releases every year. It’s the scale of a ucs set and you just have to admit and not look away that it is in fact one.

@stormthrush37 4 месяца назад

So bizarre to see two Lego R2D2s out at the same time. In any event, I can see that Malak figure doing very well in retirement especially when it's paywalled behind a $100 set.

@dr.shrimppuerto-rico2649 4 месяца назад

This R2 looks nearly perfect, but there's just something weird looking about his head that I can't quite pinpoint. I think maybe there's too much grey space between his eye and the blue marks on the top of his head? It makes it seem like he's wearing a tiny little hat or something idk

@mgreen6390 2 дня назад

@@goldengold8513 yeah I’ve seen several Mocs that compare to the UCS R2 and man it would be great to get a chopper of that scale. The anniversary R2 should’ve been a chopper for sure tho. We’ve literally gotten 3 large R2s in less than 5 years.

Another example of a set where you can take things off/put pieces on for customization is the UCS Millennium Falcon, with the details that swap out to change the era you're displaying.

They ruined that set by forcing the sequel trilogy crap into it. It should have had all of the A New Hope group (Luke, Leia, Han, Obi-Wan, Chewbacca, C-3PO, and R2-D2. It would have been perfection.

I was going to get this regardless because of it being a more size friendly R2-D2. It’s amazing after watching this review how much they put into it and the more important printed parts. I’m fine with the smaller stickers if it was between printing those or the plaque and top dome piece. This convinced me even more.

I own the UCS R2 (still sealed) but I'll get this set for the Malek fig and because this looks like a really solid build. Plus, if we get 3PO they can be displayed side by side. I can't help but think though how nice that Malek would have been as a poly bag GWP.
