“This is a superb set, one of the best I have ever had the pleasure to own. Do not miss out on R2-D2.”

The Brick Fan
“Overall, this is a really nice set. Building him was very enjoyable and worth the time to make it. I think LEGO did a great job in making our favorite astro droid into a collector's item that we can construct. The dark blues and grays make the figure stand out.”

FBTB
“10225 R2-D2 is a strong entry into the UCS sculpture line, and the UCS in general. If you've got the space to display this little guy, go for it. It's nice to have a LEGO Star Wars set that isn't a starship every once in a while, even if that a while is 10 years. It was... More worth the wait, if you were waiting.”

About Star Wars Ultimate Collector Series

The Ultimate Collector Series, or UCS, holds the large display versions of Star Wars ships, vehicles and places. It began in 2000 with 7181 TIE Interceptor and 7191 X-wing Fighter. The designer of that first X-wing gave it a black stand and a printed information plaque to show it was a model to display rather than a toy, and the stand and plaque have been part of the series ever since.

Ultimate Collector Series was introduced in 2000 and currently consists of 45 sets. As of today, 10018 Darth Maul is the most valuable Ultimate Collector Series set with an estimated new/sealed value of $5,832.
