Star Wars Power of the Jedi R2-Q5 Imperial Astromech Droid (2000 Hasbro)
Original Trilogy completists and droid-focused collectors have long coveted R2-Q5 — the black-and-bronze Imperial astromech stationed aboard the second Death Star in Return of the Jedi. When Hasbro's Power of the Jedi line (2000–2002) finally delivered the first widely distributed single-carded release of this character, it became one of the standout entries in a line already celebrated for sharp sculpts and broad saga-spanning character selection. POTJ intentionally reached back across all six films, replacing the short-lived Comm-Tech chip with collector-friendly Jedi Force File booklets, and R2-Q5 exemplified that ambition perfectly.
This is a vintage mint-on-card example on the Collection 2 green starburst blister card (Asst. No. 84455 / Item No. 84629). The bubble presents well, housing the black-and-bronze droid figure alongside a holographic Death Star II display piece on a clear stand — an accessory that sets this release apart from later versions of the character. The 8-page Jedi Force File booklet remains intact inside the bubble, and the 10 Jedi Master Points proof-of-purchase is present on the reverse. Card back features the full 14-figure Collection 2 checklist. From the images, the card shows some edge and corner wear consistent with vintage age, while the bubble retains good clarity with the figure and accessory undisturbed inside.

Jays is my first stop in collecting. I preorder things through Walmart, Amazon, Hasbro Pulse, etc., but Jays always seem to get the items and either meet or beat the other companies pricing. I always end up cancelling my pre-orders and going with Jays. Better selection, price and MUCH MUCH better shipping quality. You can't even compare anyone else's shipping and packing to Jays. And that's why Jay's blows them all out of the water.
Great fast shipping, packaging with care. I am definitely buying from Jay's again! Such peace of mind knowing my items will arrive minty. 5 stars!
Perfect and careful packaging, shipped super quick. Thank you, will definitely be following the store!
Didn't pull any punches in item description. Came extremely fast and well packed. Extremely happy being a first time buyer! Thank you.
I've been buying from Jay's for a while now and I am never disappointed with the experience. Prices that can't be beat, easy PayPal option, and lots of bubble wrap surrounding the products. The fact that they go out of their way to make consumers happy keeps me coming back.
This is my 3rd or 4th time I have ordered from Jay's. The orders are always correct and arrive pretty quick and packaged extremely well. Best in the industry.

Most in-stock orders placed before 12 PM CST ship the same day. We’re label-printing, box-packing machines — without skimping on quality. Your tracking number will probably show up before you’ve even closed the tab.
Every item gets collector-grade treatment: bubble wrap, proper padding, and zero envelope crimes. We pack like your grail’s riding shotgun with us — damage rate is under 1%.
Yep. We’ve been hunting plastic treasures since the ‘90s. We speak fluent collector (MOC, BAF, grail hunting), we’ve camped outside stores for midnight releases, and we run this place like the shop we always wished existed. Professional enablers at your service. 😎
30 days to decide if it’s true love. Not happy? Full refund to your original payment method. Damaged? We replace or refund fast. Just keep items in the condition you got them, and we’ll make it right — because the only drama in collecting should be choosing a display pose. One exception: trading card game product is final sale, since a sealed box can’t be verified once it leaves our hands.
Calling dibs costs you $0 today — we only charge your card when it ships. No awkward “I paid months ago” limbo. Mixing in-stock + pre-orders? In-stock ships now; pre-orders ship together once the last one lands, and shipping’s charged on each leg (pro tip: check ship dates before combining pre-orders). Dates can shift — we’ll keep you posted faster than Spider-Man slings webs. And if we ever can’t deliver (rare), you’re not charged a dime.
