R5-D4 is an astromech droid from the Classic Star Wars theme. R5-D4 has a White body, with mainly Medium Stone Grey printing, white 'legs', and a plain white dome. R5-D4 also has a Brick-Yellow 2x2 round plate in between it's body and dome, making R5-D4 taller than other Astromech Droids. R5-D4 has two plain white astromech droid legs, which connect to a white body. The body has printing on the front, primarily red, blue and grey in colour, all representing various compartment doors and components found on an astromech droid. On top of the body piece sits a white R5-series head, which features printing all around, most noticeably a red printing at the top of the piece, following R5-D4's predominantly red colour scheme. The piece also has black and grey printing for depicting sensors and other modules that the droid is known to have in the Star Wars universe. He was once in the possesion of Jawas led by Nebit, and then sold to Owen Lars. R2-D2 was given orders by Princess Leia to get to Obi-Wan Kenobi under any means necessary, so R2-D2 (supposedly) wrecked R5's motivater so R2-D2 could get off the sandcrawler and find Obi-Wan instead of R5-D4 getting off.
After R5-D4 malfunctioned, he was replaced by R2-D2 under the suggestion of C-3PO. The droid was stolen by a Squib as a rescue before the sandcrawler was damaged and killed the Jawas and Nebit and the droids malfunctioned after Sandtroopers came.Ithorian Jedi Master | Jedi Knight (Episode II) | Jedi Knight (The Old Republic) | Galactic Republic Part 1: 212th Clone Trooper | 212th Clone Paratrooper | 501st Clone Pilot | 501st Legion Clone Trooper | Bomb Squad Trooper | Clone Aerial Trooper | Clone Jetpack Trooper | Clone Recon Trooper | Clone Scout Trooper | Clone Trooper Captain | Clone Trooper Commander | Clone Trooper WolfpackCommander Cody | Galactic Republic Part 2: Geonosis Clone TrooperJace Malcom | Kashyyyk Clone Trooper | Naboo Fighter Pilot | Naboo Security Officer | Senate Commando Captain | Shadow ARF Trooper | Siege Battalion Trooper | Star Corps Trooper | Clone Commander (Horn Company) | Jar Jar Binks | Battle Droid Commander | Pilot Battle Droid |

To celebrate 40 years in the galaxy far, far away, Hasbro are breaking out the weaponized nostalgia with an homage to the classic Kenner era of Star Wars toys. Unveiled at New York Toy Fair this weekend, a new range of 6" Black Series action figures are being released in packaging inspired by the original Kenner figures releases for A New Hope.
Most of the figures have already been released in the Black Series line, so the real appeal for fans here is the very lovely old-school packaging. The first wave, due out this spring for $20 each, will include repackages of Luke Skywalker, Han Solo, Princess Leia, Obi-Wan Kenobi, and R2-D2 in their classic cases—and they’ll be joined later in the year by Chewbacca, C-3PO, the “Death Squad Commander” (the name Kenner originally gave to its Death Star trooper toys), a Tusken Raider, a Jawa, Darth Vader, and a Stormtrooper. Those characters should be familiar to anyone who knows their Star Wars toy history: they are the first 12 characters Kenner ever released in the very first line of 3.75" Star Wars toys. On top of that, Hasbro will be offering a special version of Darth Vader for $40, which is pretty much the ultimate homage: A recreation of the infamous Kenner Early Bird Certificate set, the empty cardboard box Kenner sold in Christmas 1977 to meet the furious demand for Star Wars toys after the movie’s surprise success.
The original Early Bird certificate granted purchasers a voucher for figures of Luke, Leia, R2, and Chewie when they released in early 1978, and had a special cardboard display set to display the first 12 figures that would come out. Hasbro’s new one isn’t quite an empty box—in includes a version of the Darth Vader figure bundled in—but it’s the same style of display, including both sides of backing from the original (one featured illustrations of the first 12 figures, the other a dogfight between X-Wings and TIE Fighters over the Death Star). But it’s a very cute move, recreating the whole set right down to the packaging—and a lovely way to display the new figures if you get all 12. If your nostalgia-induced mania doesn’t stop there though, there’ll be at least another two 6" figures in the classic packaging: The first, Luke in his X-Wing pilot gear, will be exclusive to this year’s Star Wars Celebration event in Orlando. The second, the trusty exploding droid R5-D4, will be more widely available at Gamestop retail locations.
