I haven’t seen it noted anywhere before, but there seem to be 3 different
molds used to make functionally different versions of this part, the 2x2x2
round robot body (R2-D2 body):
The difference is in how the center hole at the bottom of the part is
treated:
- Type 1: The hole is a simple tube (this is the official L-Draw part),
- Type 2: The hole is a Technic cross axel receptor, old type, lined up so that the + of the axel points to the spaces between the studs, like a “+”.
- Type 3: The hole is a Technic cross axel receptor, new type, lined up so that the + of the axel points 45 degrees off center, at the center of the studs, like an “X”.
Obviously you can build different things with the different versions of this
part - has anyone noticed this before and/or have any idea what sets have
what versions?

Matt,
I’ve incountered the later two at about a year ago. I was mounting 4 in black of
these on axels, and one was rotated 45 degrees. I never checked for part
numbers.
