ANH appearanceEdit

• Pablo Hidalgo identifies an R3 droid inA New Hope here. — Silly Dan 23:58, 21 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Aren't there other ones in The Empire Strikes Back as well? Admiral J. Nebulax 00:14, 22 February 2006 (UTC)
    • There is actually one R3 in ESB - Used by the Alliance on Hoth.
      • Yeah, we know that now. Fleet Admiral J. Nebulax ^{(Imperial Holovision)} 19:47, 12 June 2006 (UTC)

Release Date? Edit

Anyone out there know what year in the chronology of Star Wars this droid was released for purchase? White bishop 18:28, 13 July 2006 (UTC)

• Nope, but it has to be before the Battle of Naboo. Fleet Admiral J. Nebulax ^{(Imperial Holovision)} 16:24, 30 June 2006 (UTC)

Different Heads in EpI-III and EpIV-VIEdit

Looks like Prequel-R3s heads are exactly like those of a R2 but transparent. Original-Trilogy-R3s seem not to have the big black eye. Instead they have an circular thing, approx 2-3 Inch in diameter. The plates, which are normally colored on R2s and Prequel-R3s are reduced to transparent plates with colored outlines. Could it be that the models plans were changed between the trilogies? I think we should add a photo of an Original-Trilogy-R3, or whatever this variation is called, to this article. Actually there are 2 images of Prequel-R3s, or whatever this variation is called.--TeakHoken84.173.21.222 11:05, 27 November 2006 (UTC)

• Are you sure they're different? Grand Admiral J. Nebulax ^{(Imperial Holovision)} 13:13, 27 November 2006 (UTC)

Yes. I'm pretty sure because I once made a 3d-model of R2D2. I can look at it from different angles, and on some of the R3-droids I find the right viewing angle, but on some it's impossible.--TeakHoken84.173.17.126 09:34, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

• Well, pictures would be very helpful. Grand Admiral J. Nebulax ^{(Imperial Holovision)} 12:21, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

Just click through the "example units" in the article. They all have pictures. And their eras are given, too. Looks like these examples support my theory. But hey - it's just a theory, so I think its better here on the discussion page than in the article.--TeakHoken84.173.14.105 20:01, 13 December 2006 (UTC)

• Now I see. Grand Admiral J. Nebulax ^{(Imperial Holovision)} 20:44, 13 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Also, it may be solved IU by saying they were upgraded. Grand Admiral J. Nebulax ^{(Imperial Holovision)} 23:25, 16 January 2007 (UTC)

Redlinks Edit

This article is flooded with redlinks. I'm too tired right now to deal with them, because it seems to me that most of them just needs to be redirected or removed, as some of them are superfluous. In the mean time, if someone else were to handle it, I would be most grateful. --Wolf of Thor 01:51, September 9, 2011 (UTC)

• Redlinks indicate that an article should be created for the subject. Feel free to write those articles, but please do not remove redlinks without asking first. Redirecting is also OK, if something exists that is comparable to the redlink in question. ~Savage 02:21, September 9, 2011 (UTC)
