This is a real 1977 R2-D2 in a taped Kenner baggie. I don’t know how many listings I see advertising a 1977 R2 with senorscope, when we all know that was the Empire Strikes Back version. I assure you 1977 is stamped on him, but I don’t know if you’ll be able to see it in the picture. The discolored line you see on the back is the tape, and you can just tell it was never removed. That said you can see a little spot here or there on the figure, because remember this was taped not sealed, so that’s bound to happen when you’re talking it’s from 1977.
