Luke, Han, Chewbacca, and the droids R2-D2 and C-3PO are caught in a net that the Ewoks rigged to capture prey.

TAC R2-D2 Variation Found
Posted by Dustin on April 28, 2007

From Rebelscum.com:
"Rebelscum reader Joe Macudzinski writes in to alert variation hunters of a purple-hued blast effect he found of R2-D2 while searching for new figures.
