| Takara R2-D2 Diecast Coin Holder | |
| In 1978, Japanese fans could carry around their spare change in this nifty diecast R2-D2 coin holder produced by Takara. Arriving in a plastic bubble container (from a vending machine?), R2's arms could be attached to the sides for this rather cute practical interpretation of the astromech. Coins could be fed into the spring-loaded bottom, making for the neatest, albeit smallest, Star Wars-inspired money holder ever produced. |
