:Luke Skywalker's mech can transform from an X-Wing starfighter into a robot crafted in his likeness. The placement of the cockpit in robot mode gives it a see-through chest in which the small pilot figure can sit. Due to the transformation scheme, the arms have a good deal of articulation, including rotating wrists. The shoulders, however, can only rotate backward, making some poses difficult (lightsaber duels are out of the question). The legs are attached to a ball joint and the hips may be raised or lowered. The X-Wing has pressure-launch missile launchers located on the end of each wing, and a lightsaber that can clip onto the robot's belt or be held in its hands.
:R2-D2 is a sculpted detail on a the panel behind the cockpit canopy.

  • Anakin Skywalker to Jedi Starfighter (2008)
    • Accessories: 2 hyperdrive ring parts, 2 hyperdrive engines/missile launchers, 2 lightsabers/missiles
R2-D2 was again a sculpted detail, but this time on the Delta-7B Anakin mech (the difference being that the astromech droid is in the center of the craft instead of on the left wing).
This version of R2-D2 also became R7-A7 when the ship was retooled into Ahsoka Tano, R6-H5 for Kit Fisto's Jedi Starfighters, while the left-side mold was used to make Plo Koon's R7-D4 as well as Obi-Wan's and Saesee Tiin's astromechs.
