In regards to the R2 unit I think it's just about the correct height for where his legs should be. However that may be it's high for the scale that this is supposed to be in. We all know that R2-D2 got hit in Star Wars but he wasn't as tall in the saddle and still got hit by a laser blast! This is looking great so far. Keep it coming. I have a Ban Dai kit coming in the mail so I need some inspiration to get me back on track.
