There never have been R1 units, have there? But of course. The larger robot sold by the Jawas is an R1 unit. In real-life, a Google image search brings up some good results, including pictures of an R1 action figure: http://www.rebelscum.com/sw0406r1-g4.asp http://swfigures.com/swf/Enlarged/GoldCard-R1-G4(2004).htm Don't forget the official source, Starwars.com... though their images of astromech droids are limited to screen shots from the movies. http://www.starwars.com/databank/droid/astromechdroid/ There seems to be a discrepancy in size: the Star Wars site says the height of an R2 unit is 0.96 meters, but the "Essential Guide to Droids" book says the height is 0.97 meters. Hmm... Sorry, but John Jongsma never made an R1 unit. His astromechs range from R2 to R7... and there are no R8 or R9 units. --John
