From the depths of the '70s comes one of the most infamous R2-D2 knockoffs ever created: Playmobil's GE-5P from their Playmo-Space line!
With a transparent dome long before R3 units, GE-5P answers the question: "What if an astromech had hands?" And the answer is, of course, that it would push a big blue wheelbarrow around on the moon or carry some sort of yellow grabby device, somewhat pointlessly as it already has robot hands!
