Astromech Droid, R1-G4, Decorated Truncated Cone
Released in 2014, SW0589 is the most recent LEGO R1-G4 minifigure — the 2nd variant produced since 2005. No new variant has appeared in the 12 years since.
At £10.21, SW0589 is the highest-valued R1-G4 variant on the secondary market — 2.3× the price of the most affordable variant (SW0147 - Astromech Droid, R1-G4 at £4.44).
SW0589 ranks in the top 25% of all minifigures tracked on Brickpit by used value, and in the top 50% within the Star Wars theme (998 figures).
As the highest-valued R1-G4 variant, SW0589's premium likely reflects its limited distribution across just 1 set. Collectors should note the significant spread across R1-G4 variants before committing at this price point.
Price History
Set Appearances
SW0589 was produced exclusively for Sandcrawler (75059), a large flagship set originally retailing at £249.99. Sets at this price point typically sell in lower volumes, contributing to a smaller pool of figures on the secondary market. The set retired in 2016, so SW0589 is now only available secondhand.
