The Disney Elite series is adding another droid to the collection with the release of R5-P8 in Disney Stores.
R5-P8 is Hondo Ohnaka's astromech as seen in the Clone Wars as Hondo operated his Pirate Crew out of Florrum. The Droid remains in Hondo's service at Black Spire on Batuu (Galaxy's Edge).
R5-P8 features the unique paint job, but does not have the blaster mounted on his dome as seen in the Clone Wars. He is a Limited Release in the Disney Elite Series window box packaging and is listed online now in the US and in stores. He is not on the UK site as yet, but I have seen reports of him being found in UK stores - possibly ahead of a street date?
Astromech droid R5-P8 is in service to Hondo Ohnaka as they recruit crews from Black Spire Outpost on Batuu to run contraband throughout the galaxy. Now you can bring him home and station him alongside the other characters in your Star Wars Elite die cast action figure collection.

About Me : As a child of the 70's and 80's I grew up in a golden age for action figures and in my youth bought and sold myself through collections of Star Wars, G.I. Joe (Action Force) and M.A.S.K. while also dabbling in He-Man, Transformers and Ghostbusters. Roll forward and I am now reliving that Youth with the action figures of today and am a collector and fan of the larger 6-8 inch figures from my favourite movie and TV licences - including the ones mentioned above, but also the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Doctor Who and the Aliens. I launched The Mephitsu Archives in 2015 with a view of creating a UK focused site or these figures where fans can pick up the latest action figure news, read reviews and get information on where to buy their figures and what is currently on store shelves. I hope I am delivering that to you guys...
