To clear up the continuity errors R6-H5 R7-A7 and R7-D4 are just the names of the astromechs and not their actual model line A Lucasfilm executive stated that the names could be part of a longer serial number so R7's full number could be R2-R7-A7- etcetera etcetera it most likely that the droid itself is just another R2 unit and Dave Filoni most likely named other droids different numbers because having a bunch of droids being called R2 and R4 would be confusing as hell since when we hear R2 and R4 we think of R2-D2 and R4-P17

[@CKN215]

So does this mean there is just one droid per name, or many per name? I mean is there a single R2-D2, or were 100 made before they moved on to, I don’t know, R2-D3?

[@CasualCatYT]

@@CKN215 maybe, I think the R1 is obviously is it’s own model, the R2 and R3 and R7 are their own models, same with the R4 and R5 and R6 could be probably the most similar, then R8 and R9 are just the same with slightly different upgrades. I would say it would it would make sense if a R10 existed, I wonder what that would look like, and according to my list below it’d probably be an R5 instead since I’m grouping them. - R1: R1 R2/R3/R7: R2 R4/R5/R6: R3 R8/R9: R4

You can't hate the R series of astromeks. While i love the BB and BD line of droids, they can't really beat the versatility and sheer determination of an R2 unit, or any other of the R line of astros. I personally would love to have an R2 unit alongside a T7 droid from the Old Republic era, like the one one of the most famous smugglers of that era had. I can't remember the name of that smuggler, but he did help Satele Shan and that soldier to escape over Korriban, or Moraband if you prefer Canon over Legends

Moraband was republican name for Korriban in Expanded Universe before Disney, if I recall correctly.

[@thechangeling3851]

Tbh I love that starwars Droid market is so variable, half of models seem to be "see if it sticks" and the rest are the result of aftermatket customization which for tabletop games in setting result in some fun Droid chars people can make. My favorite char I created for a "scum and villany" smuggler and bounty hunter campaign was a prototype corporate collaboration project at the end of the clone wars...Between baktoid, holowan, and czerka Corp. It was "suposed" to be an "elite, but recource effective" assasin Droid to be used to hunt down the remaining jedi, or dispose of high value targets... It was a commando Droid with upgraded servos, several hidden weapons and a hidden compartment for its primary weapon system, and upgraded sensor package (more emotive eyes), but using a prototype of the more advanced IG series processors and internals...czerka basically just made the weapon which was a custom made, limited run folding slugthrower marksmen (more like a anti-material) rifle/scatter gun combi-weapon of the finest quality (my char was VERY attached to it and often hated using other weapons if forced to) Long story short...his limited line (like 10 droids) that was sent to be "tested" by the rising empire was also home to a number of other droids to be "tested" for capabilities in the new imperial military market...including IGs...which subsequently went rouge, killed the crew and left but not before "disposing of the competition" by dropping all the storage pods of my chars droids out on some backwater world to burn up in atmosphere... My chars pod was left in the dunes until the end of the empire, and subsequently found by some scaver, whom sold it not knowing what it was to the party... Really, really fun char to play. Not a psychopathic Droid...but certainly a sociopath that pushed for "effective, efficient decisions" and "recource management"...though clearly hid a almost disconcerting desire to "prove there worth...often by keeping track of kills both numerically, and exceptional cases)

[@NestaSimbaSauti]

You just remade HK series lol But honestly this sounds like something plausible in SW universe.

[@inductivegrunt94]

The R2 series will be my favorite of the R-Series astromechs with the R4 being a close second. R2-D2 is a legend among astromech droids. If I had one, it'd probably be an R4 unit with an R2 head, have dark blue markings, and named R4-L13 or "Lucky." Or at least, that's one idea for an astromech if I could own one.

[@sonicguyver7445]

R2s and beyond are such great companion droids. They are loyal and like a Swiss Army Knife of tools for the Star Wars galaxy. Plus they make great copilots. I also realized in an episode of The Mandalorian, there is an R6 unit working on Coruscant when Carson Teba went there to ask for help for Nevarro. The guy Carson is taking to tell it to not put data disks on one open spot, and it does it anyway.

Due to its rugged nature, the R4-series was used extensively on farms and frontiers across the Outer Rim; eventually earning the nickname “aggro-droid”.

[@PatriciaCross]

The occurrences of anachronistic numbering in Clone Wars era droids (using number designation that seem decades before they canonically should exist) is not necessarily a continuity error. Using the Letter-Number pattern (the D2 in R2 D2) would only allow numbering of up to 260 units . For general sale, it is not such a big deal having a number of droids with the same name; during the Clone Wars, this would prove to be a huge problem for a military the size of the Galactic Republic. Using a yet (well into the future) undersigned model number would allow for more variety in droid names.

I love the design of the R5 series. I’d probably customize it to function at a similar quality to the R2 or R4 series. I’d give it blue and black trimming. Its name would be Shelby. Like the Shelby Cobra car.

[@kabob129]

Regarding the droids with R7 and R8 designations in the clone wars, I always thought that they named that way because the Republic had more R2 units than the naming system allowed for. With naming system being the droid model followed by two numbers or letters means there can only be about 1300 unique names for any given model. My guess is that the Republic just gave a lot of droids a different designation not used by an existing model. For example R7-A7 could still be an R2 and a droid like RG-G1could just be an R4 with a different name.

[@passingrando6457]

According to a Lucasfilm exec (I think it was Leland Chee, but don't quote me on that) the R2s, 3s, and 4s with R(higher number) designations got those numbers from their full serial number, as one might be R2-A7-P3 and it would be shortened to R7-P3 or something.

[@WolfsHaven]

Im thinking before model release names may have been some of the earlier modified R series units. It was modified, therefore not a true R2 or R3 model. So they gave them different names. Continuity error fixed. 😊

[@pacboy7673]

I would go for an R6. She would have a mix of colors, including evergreen, sand blue, medium azure, and magenta. Evergreen would be the base of the torso and legs. The torso/leg accents would be the sand blue. The head base is medium azure, with magenta would be the head accents. Her head would still be that of your average R6, but it would have an antenna attachment and a dish attachment. I would modify her to be able to hold 46 different hyperspace coords. She would also have a plasma torch arm, a buzzsaw arm, a scomp link (cuz every astromech needs one), and a grapling hook. The eye on her head would be modified to be hexagonal in shape. She would come equipped with those rocket boosters some astromechs have. She would have a tazer arm. She would be one of the less common female droids (don't know why they're so rare but they are). And her name would be R6-CD78.

[@Mxyzptlksac]

R5 got treated better in the Mandalorian. He ended up serving in the rebellion

[@ic4192]

He actually blew his motivator on purpose in the old canon, not sure what Disney decided on for him. In the old canon, R2-D2 had informed him of the importance of him leaving to save the galaxy from the Empire and because of how passionate the droid was R5-D4 chose to blow his own motivator out to force Luke to buy R2-D2. He really took one for the team, and without him the Empire never could have been defeated. Also like that other guy said, the Mandalorian gave him a great expansion on his story

Funny how the R series kinda resembles Star Wars as a whole. Star Wars as a whole. The P2 was like script for the original films, pioneering. Before A New Hope there was a not as sucessful film, symbolong the R1. after this everything banged like the original series. The R3 was not as successful due to a lot of extra features, which weren't going to make necessarily more successful, like the prequels that were still successful, but had some features like jar jar binks. after this the R4 had some increased durability, though weren't as successful without the R2 head, just like Clone Wars on it's own due to the messed up chonology, although it had increased lenght, however in combination with the prequels you could put it into context and it was destined to skyrocket. But then came the R5, a "A meter-tall stack of the worst business decisions you could possibly want, just like the sequels...

[@BirchTreeReborn]

I like to think that Industrial Automaton had a deal with the Jedi Order that outfitted jedi with highly experimental prototype astromechs including very late series versions as seen with Mace Windu. These versions would later be redesigned to fit the needs they now service. I feel like business dealings like this would have been minor sources of mistrust with the general public that would begin to see the Jedi not as a religious organization but as a business making profits amidst a galactic war. It's also possible that Industrial Automaton simply saw the Jedi as the perfect group for testing their products considering their tendency to traverse the galaxy and travel to planets that have wildly varying conditions.

Let me guess you play world of tanks

​@@Beef-man nah I get the vibes that he's a 60 year old dude who's nevers heard of KZbin sponsorships before

As much as I love r2 bb8 and the bb series completely stole the adorable sassy hilarious and brave little toaster robot side kick role for me! Doesn’t mean I’m hating on r2 though he’s the king of the droids always

The last “s” in “chassis” is silent.

[@danross395]

What if the r series was all the Jedi that passed before reaching master

[@thehigherman9918]

T3-M4 is the only droid for me!

[@GCJACK83]

Meh. I like to think Fisto had a prototype R6, explaining why he has an R6 earlier than they were supposed to exist.

[@olus3907]

Are there any SW series with old and new republic?

[@Judgement456-fr6ju]

I would love to have an R6 personally but I would be fine with an R5 and just upgrade him/her when ever I had time to turn them into a semi R6.

If you count from A1 to Z9, you only get 260 droids before you run out of names. How many R2 units were made?

[@RobTheBlockyFox22]

If I had to pick one, it would have to be the R2 series. The design is iconic and influence on the Star Wars series is massive. You can't help but to think of R2-D2 if you know about the series.
