R2-F1P was an R2-series astromech droid[1] with white, silver, yellow, and orange plating and a black sensor.[2] Like all R2 astromech droids, it stood 0.96 meters tall and was manufactured by Industrial Automaton.[1] Its status indicator could be red or blue in color when on.[3]

In 13 BBY,[4] R2-F1P was present in Coronet Spaceport in Coronet City on the planet Corellia. Following a security alert being sounded in the spaceport after a breach of the customs gates, the droid rolled past a human family being violently separated by Imperial stormtroopers.[3]

Behind the scenes

R2-F1P was created for the 2018 Anthology film, Solo: A Star Wars Story.[3] The droid was first revealed prior to the film's release as part of a Star Wars: Droid Factory toy set produced by Hasbro earlier in 2018.[5]

Star Wars: Absolutely Everything You Need to Know establishes that R2-series astromech droids are part of the R-series line and manufactured by Industrial Automaton. Star Wars: The Visual Encyclopedia establishes that all astromech droids are class two droids. Star Wars: Absolutely Everything You Need to Know, Updated and Expanded states that R2-series astromech droids stand 0.96 meters (3ft 1in) tall. As this article assumes R2-F1P to be an R2 series astromech droid, these characteristics must also apply to it.
