Anyone else notice this?

The piece used for the "R2/R5 dome" is a 2x2x1 dome,
as opposed to the 2x2x2 *hollow* dome.

I've seen this 2x2x1 dome (unpainted)
in several sources other than
(maybe even before?) Lego Star Wars.

The one example I can think of right now
is the Riverboat set for Adventurers.

I believe, but do not know for certain,
that this piece is also available
in several of the Space Port sets,
and possible some of the older Launch Command sets.

Thanks!  2x2x1.  Of course.  I'm glad to hear this piece has been around for
awhile.  I can now see if I can find it in yellow, blue, and gray.  Now if I
can find some non-white legs...
