Does anyone know if any of these R2 arms are a found-items like a few of the others?

There are 2 found objects, the one at the chess table was a pickle/ice cube grabber hooked up to a pneumatic system.

The arm that he uses to fix the xwing when vader hits it in the trench is a very rare chemist Beaker arm/holder

Thanks, I do know about those. I was just curious if any of the others have any real world basis. The grabbing claw in particular looks like it is made from something else. And I always thought the pincer looked like a large engineering compass...

The main housing of the zapping arm is the same as Lando‘s cloud city comlink/microphone he pulls out of the wall. Looks like it’s a found part to me.

Pretty sure the ESB gripper arm (my favorite version ) has a model motorcycle engine on the sides of it

Other than that, I think the r2 builders confirmed the rest was made by scratch
