We are proud to offer Hyperspace members the Celebration Europe exclusive action figure 2 pack modeled after artist Ralph McQuarrie's original concept illustrations for beloved droids R2 D2 and C 3PO!!!! What makes this different than the Celebration IV exclusive is that is the Celebration Europe logo on the front, a unique card back and an exclusive coin featuring the CE logo. Modeled after artist Ralph McQuarrie's original concept illustrations for beloved droids R2 D2 and C 3PO, the figures celebrate the 30 year legacy of the Star Wars saga as well as the creative, guiding vision of McQuarrie, whose drawings helped George Lucas convince studio directors to back the very first Star Wars movie.McQuarrie's early production illustrations of C 3PO drew inspiration from the golden android in Fritz Lang's Metropolis. In initial drawings for R2 D2, the plucky droid displayed flexible, exterior claws that would later become a number of handy attachments hidden inside Artoo's more streamlined exterior. Very early story treatments featured the bickering droids on the Imperial side of the conflict, but they evolved to become tenacious, if unlikely, Rebel heroes. McQuarrie's first painting of the droids was one of five pieces of art shown to the Twentieth Century Fox board of directors prior to their approving the initial budget for what was then called The Star Wars.IMPORTANT LOGIN INFORMATION FOR HYPERSPACE MEMBERSTo purchase the Celebration Europe exclusive R2 D2 and C 3PO 2 Pack, Hyperspace members should follow these instructions Log into your starwars.com Hyperspace account by clicking the Sign In link aboveOn the side menu at left, click on the Shop link Log into your StarWarsShop.com account even if you have already logged in.
