There have been several R2-D2 collectible statues in the past, but this new version from Gentle Giant is certainly among the most detailed. The model is 1:6 scale, and it includes eight accessories like: a periscope scanner, gripper, saw, and more. There are also slots for a lightsaber and scopes in his head, the torso has working panels and his arms are removable. Expect R2 to ship starting in June.

What makes having Play Doh acceptable for an adult? Merely having a couple Star Wars toppers for the cans. Anything that gives you Obi Wan Kenobi in action with a light saber and R2-D2 actually taking flight has to go a long way towards legitimizing your preferred toys.

The success of the Star Wars films made R2-D2 rich and famous, but with great wealth comes great temptation—and R2 indulged every chance he got. He muddled through the last three films, usually high on crack. When the money dried up he supported his addiction by selling himself on the streets. Broke and busted, he has been reduced to working as a side table in your living room. Hollywood claims yet another victim. Tragic. Additional images are available after the break.
These mice look almost as cool as the actual Star Wars characters, but they can act with props that are 1/10 the size of what was required for the human characters. Get a few and make your own bizarre parody. Check out the Ewok, Stormtrooper and R2 D2 mice after the break.
Whether it’s repairing ships, protecting queens or wiping snot from runny noses, R2-D2 has the right tools for the job.

You have already enslaved Darth Vader on your desktop, now its time to put R2-D2 to work keeping your beer cold.
