This is a REALLY cool toy I saw on Rebelscum, you can buy one at the flashing link in the top left corner.

This is one toy that has become a favorite among many in the Lucasfilm staff. This miniature remote control R2-D2 from Japan is just about the same scale as the Hasbro action figure version, but includes all the bells and whistles (literally!) that has made Artoo a favorite among fans. As the official and exclusive U.S retailer for this collectible, this one will be hard to find elsewhere
With the mini-lightsaber remote, Artoo will move forward or turn on command, rotate his dome as he rolls, beep and whistle, and illuminate his photoreceptor "eye". Not since the 1978 Japanese/Canadian exclusive wind-up Artoo has such a cool item come along for fans and figure collectors. Artoo measures approximately 2.5" tall, and includes batteries for the remote and the astrodroid himself.
Window box packaging attractively displays both R2-D2 and the lightsaber remote, and includes the stunning "Vader in Flames" graphics that mesh with the U.S. carded Episode III action figure line. This is one toy you'll definitely want to take out of the package, though.
3 3/4 inch scale remote control action figure
Very limited quantity available of this exclusive
Includes remote control and batteries for operation
Features original Japanese packaging
Ships Sep 2005
Yea, its also a sales pitch, but it's an awesome toy. Buying through our site adds a little to the prize fund, which covers cost of prizes and shipping. All my contests will always be free, and that's the reason why
