A publicity photo compared to model Threepio with both model Artoo and Black Series Artoo.
Black Series is to small, IMO.

In my mind the 2 on the left look to be closer to the "right" size, but I really like the version on the right for pure R2-ness.

Re: So, what toys did you buy or get this week?
What do you mean, by right and left?
For me there are 2 pics on the left (BS on top, model on bottom) and the studio promo pic on the right.
Artoo's eyeline should around Threepio's bellybutton, not his crotch.
And the Black Series Artoo's middle leg bugs me. There's a big weird block where it comes out.

Yeah the block is terrible. I meant the 2 pics on the left, but I might be too used to seeing them in toy pics together as opposed to movie pics together.

I got the last figure from Wave 1 (Scarlett). These figures rock.

R2 is almost always in front of 3PO it seems like, so perspective gets in the way. This pic appears to show them side to side, with R2's top near the bottom of threepio's waist space. Mind you R2 is tilted here with the third leg out so I guess part way into the space would be right. Certainly not crotch height.

Looking back, we all knew it was happening. Part of the intergalactic don't ask, don't tell policy.

Stupid quadruple--oh, wait.
I'm honestly not sure if Destro is considered Wave 1 or not. I guess he must be, even if he was announced later, since he's in the first case.
I didn't have him in this pic, though, because I used Fort Wadsworth (the real-life fort that the Joes were originally based out of a somewhat fictionalized version of) for the background, and it seemed wrong.

ESB 40th Dagobah Luke & Snowtrooper - very surprised to find them on the shelves honestly. The Dagobah Luke is like the old Vintage Collection Rebel Fleet Trooper - it makes you want Hasbro to start making more vintage style figures like last year's Tarkin & Snowspeeder Luke.

Scorpomotherfuckingnok.
First time I've had him, even though he's one of my favorites. It's the wrong Prime, but I had to immediately stage his death from the comics.
