An astromech droid, R2-D2 is a major character throughout all six Star Wars films. He joins or supports Anakin Skywalker/Darth Vader, Obi-Wan Kenobi (portrayed by Alec Guinness and Ewan McGregor), and R2-D2’s droid companion C-3PO (played by Anthony Daniels) in various points in the saga.

The original R2-D2 was designed by John Stears and specially created by Australian firm Petric Engineering and English firm C&L Developments.[citation needed] Many scenes also made use of radio controlled and CGI versions of the character. Both the original props of R2-D2 and C-3PO used in filming are used as audio-animatronics in the queue area of Disneyland‘s Star Tours ride.

Moya is a character/spacecraft and a member of the Leviathan race. She had her first appearance in the “Premiere“, and was last seen in “The Peacekeeper Wars Part 2“.
Like others of her race, Moya was captured by a Peacekeeper squad at a young age and was bonded with a Pilot, who serves as the Leviathan’s navigator, operator, companion, and link to the crew of the ship. Leviathans are ships of peace, and as such have no offensive capabilities. They do have an impressive defensive maneuver, however, called starburst, which allows the ship to travel at incredible speed through a tear in space-time.
