Retired LEGO R2-D2 Is Still Available at Amazon

LEGO R2-D2

For $221.27, you can save 8% off the original $239.99 at Amazon. This 2,315-piece set is LEGO's most detailed R2-D2 model to date. When IGN had the chance to assemble this set upon its initial release, it was a joy to build. Standing over a foot tall, this R2-D2 can be posed in various ways, featuring all the iconic details from the movies. The retractable third leg, operable front hatches, and extendable periscope are all meticulously crafted. LEGO's commitment to accuracy shines through in every aspect, from the colors to the intricate wiring and tubing. If you manage to purchase this set before it's gone, it will complement the best LEGO Star Wars sets of 2025 beautifully.

R2-D2's latest on-screen appearance was in 2021's "The Book of Boba Fett" episode 6, titled "From the Desert Comes a Stranger." This episode is notable for featuring a CGI de-aged Luke Skywalker, the live-action debut and farewell of bounty hunter Cad Bane, and, of course, our beloved astromech droid. IGN rated this episode a seven, noting its focus on "The Mandalorian" and nostalgic Star Wars elements over its protagonist.
