Astromechs

[Foxfx]

Good Evening fellow Spec Op Troopers,

 

I would like to throw a question into the arena. We all know that major character's had astromechs, including the Emperor ( R2-Q5) - which I am currently building. My question is, is there any 'Spec Ops Astromechs" ?

 

Any information to assist our Spec Ops Team would be greatly appreciated.

As a matter of fact, my first droid build was done in honor of this detachment: R5-TX.

Very cool Toddo, what made you go for an R5 Unit ?

My favorite droid was always R5-D4. It was an astromech, but it just was a little off. It seemed maybe older-looking to me as a kid. I saw a photo a while back of R5-J2, one of the black Imperial droids from ROTJ, and I couldn't stop thinking about it. I built t with my son who was 9 at the time, and I let him pick the colors, and I love this particular detachment, so I decided to name him after it. Since then we have also built an R4 dome to change out for this guy so that he often becomes R4-V9.

 

We then built a second droid, R2-A6.
