I never understood, how could he play R2? The question rises because R2 is not a humanoid droid, and (in contrast to 3PO) doesn't walk, nor gesture, nor talk and of course, doesn't act. I always thought that R2 moved with remote controlled wheels beneath its 'feet' and that's all. I only can guess that Baker was inside the cylinder of R2 and rotated the dome and sensor around or controlled R2's gadgets when needed. Anyone knows more about that? It should be included in the article. MoffRebus 23:43, 23 July 2007 (UTC)

• There wasn't one R2; there were a lot of them. Some of them were models, and some had Kenny Baker in them. But yeah, I don't really know. -LtNOWIS 23:47, 23 July 2007 (UTC)

Why wasn't he in ROTS? Someone told me arumor that he wouldn't appear if there wasn't a naked lady in the movie, but I don't believe it. Does anyone know why, or if this is true or post (a) reference(s)?--98.217.155.7 13:30, 7 September 2008 (UTC)

• I'm editing that bit out, because it's gone sourceless for several years and is directly contradicted by an interview with Kenny Baker. --Kusenveturilo 04:20, January 16, 2011 (UTC)
