I Love Star Wars
Most people who have seen Star Wars or are familiar with the franchise know about R2-D2 and BB-8. What most people dont know is that there is an entire line of astromech droids in the Star Wars world. While they mostly have the same features and abilities, each design is different and has its own specialties.
My favorites are the R6 model simply because it doesnt blend in with the rest of the R-type astromech droids (without looking stupid) or the R7 model even though it's an E-wing specialty mech.
Fun fact: The predecessors to the R-type astromech droid were the P-type astromech droid. They looked nearly identical to the standard R2 model except they were 2.3 meters tall! (7 and a half feet tall for you non-metric people)
