Astromech Droid, R2-D2, Reindeer
R2-D2 has 18 LEGO variants spanning 1999–2026. SW0679, released in 2015, is the 9th of those variants.
At £3.56, SW0679 is one of the less valuable R2-D2 variants. The highest-valued variant — SW1496 - Astromech Droid, R2-D2 - Dirt Stains on Front and Back, without Dirt Stains on Top Panels — currently trades at £13.00.
SW0679 ranks in the bottom 50% of all minifigures tracked on Brickpit by used value, and in the bottom 50% within the Star Wars theme (998 figures).
SW0679 sits in the mid-range of R2-D2 variants by value. With all source sets now retired, supply is not growing — a factor that typically supports price stability over time.
