You will build your R2-D2 from components engineered to look just like the original Star Wars props – plus state-of-the-art modern electronic components. Taking inspiration from the remote-controlled � lm prop, your fully functioning half-scale model R2-D2 is engineered in the same way, and has been superbly detailed based on the droid seen on screen. Once assembled, you can choose whether to retain the factory-fresh � nish, or give your astromech a weathered, ‘used’ appearance as in the movies.
