R5-D4 Action Figure Star Wars Black Series | 1:12 Scale LOOSE
The Droid with the “Bad Motivator” - Complete Disney Store Exclusive Figure
Add the iconic R5-D4 astromech droid to your Star Wars collection with this premium 6-inch Black Series figure. Featured prominently in “Star Wars: A New Hope,” this is the fateful droid whose malfunctioning “bad motivator” led Luke Skywalker to purchase R2-D2 instead—a seemingly minor event that changed the course of the galaxy. This figure comes loose but is brand new and complete with all accessories, originally released as part of an exclusive Disney Store multi-pack alongside Pit Droids.
Legendary Star Wars Character
Known affectionately as “Red” due to his distinctive coloring, R5-D4 played a pivotal role in the Star Wars saga despite his brief screen time. This astromech droid’s sacrifice (or calculated malfunction, according to some Star Wars lore) ensured R2-D2 could deliver Princess Leia’s message to Obi-Wan Kenobi, setting the entire Star Wars story in motion. The figure perfectly captures R5-D4’s weathered appearance from his harsh life on the desert planet Tatooine, complete with the iconic “bad motivator” that can be displayed.
