The ever-popular astromech droid from the Star Wars saga will come with a periscope scanner, mechanical gripper, utility saw, Luke’s Return of the Jedi lightsaber, and more, all of which can all be assembled into the statue’s exposed chest or dome panels.
The 7-inch-tall, 1/6th scale Poly Stone statue is hand painted and will be a limited edition.
This deluxe R2-D2 will be available Spring 2010. No word yet on price or pre-ordering.
