This is a great article about R2-D2 from late 1977. This UK version includes more material than the AU version. It has details about the umbrella droid as well as what looks to be the correct original centerfold layout with a breakdown of the RC version of Artoo.

Hey OpenR2 ! Welcome to The RPF! Very neat article, (begins on pg 44), and Bren reminds me of a gal I went to school with. Though she would have been her mom. It's fun to see articles and advertisements about Hi-Fi and VHS being state-of-the-art and all the rage!

This is such a cool vintage magazine! And not only for the amazing Star Wars article; it was a fun read! All those future stories about audio and home computing [emoji23]
