Who is R3-T7?

Pardon my ignorance: But why is Toys 'R' Us selling a R3-T7 AOTC droid? Who is R3-T7?

I obviously know who R2-D2 is. I know that emperial droid R4-M9 did an opening scene in 'A New Hope' searching the Rebel Blockade Runner looking for the plans for the original Death Star. I know that R4 was with Obi wan Kenobi when Obi went to discover Jango Fett.

But what does the Toys 'R' Us toy 'R3-T7' have to do with AOTC or the trilogy?

Didn't you see him? He was at the landing platform on Coruscant. If you blinked, you probably missed him.

The scarry thing is; that's probly true. Any creature or droid on screen for more then 5 seconds will have an action figure and a back story.

Does the back panel say? I wonder if he is 'eye patch security guard guy's' astro-mech. I men the one that flys in his fighter with him.

I'll have to double-check, but I thought that R3-T7 was one of the droids on the Queen's ship - one of those that gets shot off trying to repair the ship during their escape from Naboo.

Bah, you can never have too many Astromech action figures.

If only that were true, then Brett's favourite pod racer would adorn his

The dorid that came out of his fighter was an R' unit with green markings,

Amen, brutha! I've often stated my desire to see an entire wave composed of nothing but astromechs and protocol droids of varying colors and markings. It would sure save the hassle of customizing.

They should have every possible combination. Heck how about include a random Asromech with every figure! They could come in colored bags so you can't see them. Cash in on the Pokemon aspect!

Go ahead 'Nathan Thomas', make my day...

Damn straight. Hasbro's releasing Teemto Pagalies later this year. What's with that? Ben Quadinaros is heaps better.
