While so much of the focus has been on BB-8 in recent years, R2-D2 is still our favorite droid. Now you can build your own 12″ tall R2 unit using this DIY kit which includes all the parts you need, and stickers for customizing your bot. Great for kids or kids at heart.

Sphero follows up its neat BB-8 droid with R2-D2 and BB-9E (a new character that will appear in Star Wars: The Last Jedi). The R2-D2 toy has a built-in speaker for its trademark bleeps and bloops, while the BB-9E toy has the same fascinating spherical body as BB-8.

During Star Wars Celebration, a veritable army of robot builders got together in one room to let their R2-D2s, BB-8s, and other assorted droids meet each other. It’s like a dog park for droids, and it should be open every day of the year. Kudos to Michael McMaster for the video.

BB-8 might be adorable and all, but R2-D2 is still way more versatile from what we’ve seen. For example, he can keep your drinks cool in this tabletop fridge which can hold up to 16 cans of your favorite drink. Measures 24-1/2″ tall x 12″ diameter. Motivator unit sold separately.

Toymaker Chogy came up with the coolest version of C-3PO we’ve ever seen. Chogy turned the protocol droid into a dude clad in gold pants and zip-up hoodie, with Artoo as his skateboard. The wiring undershirt is a neat idea. Limited to 20 pieces.

AWE me shows us how to make a teapot from a Victorian galaxy far, far away. They built an Artoo body around a teapot using aluminum bars and sheets, epoxy, a cake bowl and bits and bobs from a junkyard.

It’s not the fridge you need, nor the one you deserve. Haier’s officially licensed life-size R2-D2 scale model zips around via remote control, has a hidden mini refrigerator with room for six cans, and emits Artoo’s lights and sounds.

By combining clips of R2-D2 jacking into various computers with Yello’s classic Oh Yeah, editor WhoIsPablo made it look like R2 was having more fun than we thought, sticking his universal computer interface into any port in town. Ch… Chika Chika indeed.

Not only do the blue and white markings on this budgie make this bird look sort of like R2-D2, but it has an uncanny ability to sound just like everyone’s favorite little maintenance droid.

We’ve always thought R2-D2 was a peace-loving little droid, but after seeing him on the streets of GTA IV laying waste to innocent civilians, we wonder if he’s got a little Dark Side in him after all.

Geeks around the world had a collective nerdgasm when LEGO revealed this 2127 piece, 12″ tall R2-D2, complete with turning head, retractable third leg, and fold-out tools. More pics here.

Fix your drink with a frozen droid using this officially licensed ice tray. Measuring 6″ x 4″ x 1″, the mold can be used to make 1 large and 4 small Artoo-shaped ice cubes or other goodies at once.

Obi-Wan might be her only hope, but at least R2’s spray-painted message from Leia should last a bit longer than a hologram in case Old Ben walks by. Grab this tee today only (7/18) at TeeFury.
