In the market for a cool Star Wars iron-on decal? How about one where C-3PO is wiping his golden wang all over the back of R2’s head? Is it just me or does it appear that R2 may actually be backing into it? Disgraceful.

Bidding begins at $0.01 with $2.99 shipping. How can you go wrong?

So, some Jawas got a hold of R2 and had their way with him once again. This time, they installed an aquarium in his body and really took all of his dignity. The domed head rotates with vocal commands and he beeps just like in the movies. But if Luke had this model with him in the Death Star, he would have had to stop and feed fish every so often. The radar eye houses the eyepiece to a built-in periscope that provides an intimate view of the tank.

Includes filter and overhead LED tank lights that switch between red, blue, and green and get this. It includes a two-sided waterproofed cardboard insert depicting scenes from the movie as a background. All for $129.95

Welcome to Bot Fight. Two bots enter, one bot leaves. Usually with broken parts and a rectal violation with a wrench.

Size advantage: Clearly Data

Special abilities:

Data-Can dress up as Sherlock Holmes. Do comedy with Joe Piscopo. Have sex with Tasha Yar. Own a cat. Is a daddy’s boy, searches out his creator Dr. Noonien Soong. Geordi LaForge’s butt-buddy.

R2-Can magically beep and just as magically have Star Wars humans understand him. Pals around with a Gay homosexual robot known as “Goldenrod”. Ejects lightsabers from his dome. Has bragging rights with a “third leg”. Backseat drives X-Wings. Somehow magically dodges room-fulls of stormtropper lasers.

Face Off: Lock both in a room and before you know it Data has himself a new pet. R2 has an android master who can understand his every flippin beep. They refuse to fight and instead laugh about C3PO, Q and the Borg. R2 feeds Data’s cat when he’s on the Bridge. During his Holmes holodeck excursions, Data introduces a Victorian suited R2 as his short friend from Brussels “Mr Arthur Desquared”. Geordi gets all emo and pissed off, soon devises a way to send R2 back to his own universe. At the last minute Q arrives and tells a sad Data that it was all a gift from him, to illustrate some BS sentiment. Data is sad but reflective. Cue end credits and preview next weeks steaming pile.

Everyone loves a beer carrying/serving droid, but Bar2D2 here looks like he spent a few decades in the attic of a Jawa Sandcrawler. It’s basically an automatic dispensing machine for beer bottles and cans etc. He has some mixing skills too apparently. He sports an electric chair bottom and can even make some small talk, thanks to its R2-D2 voice module. Which probably screams and beeps to be let out of that body.

What could be better then having a droid ready to roll on your watch? The R2-D2 Whizzwatch while not heavy on style, lets you control a miniature version of R2-D2 with a special wristwatch IR transmitter. R2 is attached to it’s strap.

Just unclip the little droid, put him on your desk and watch him go. The watch supposedly has a variety of digital readouts, and you can switch between 12/24 hour displays. It costs about $36. My concern with this watch would be running into some dude with a Jawa watch. If the two should fight, your little droid might end up in a Jawa sandcrawler. That would not end well for R2.

Personally I can’t think of a better way for a grown man to get his ass kicked, then by wearing this R2 backpack that hugs you like a nasty Hemmo-droid. As a grown man who simultaneously loves robots, but fears the coming apocalypse, even I would not wear this. So, get it for your kid instead and let him take the ass-kicking. We do what we can to police the streets of Botropolis, but these things happen. $60.

Here’s a cool prototype! The Lethal Injection Attack Droid Prototype by Christopher Conte doesn’t screw around. Just doles out it’s own brand of justice with a syringe.

It’s made of Recycled stainless steel, titanium, and machined aluminum with vintage glass syringe.
10.5 “x 6.5″x 8″ (26.5cm x 16.5cm x 20cm).

It’s currently on loan to the National Museum of Crime and Punishment in Washington, DC where it hopes to run amok soon.

I think I’ve seen this droid when I’ve had too much to drink and I’m always told that it’s not the droid I’m looking for and to move along. He likes to pilot X-Wings from the back, and get your ass pulled over by Star Destroyers. This little droid also lives in constant fear of having his top popped up and his innards guzzled down. It’s basically an overwhelmingly cool and geektastic creation.

I’m secure enough in my manly hood to admit that plush robots are often very cute. And reluctantly admit to thinking about, just thinking about mind you, cuddling with them. But when some bots go plush, it just looks weird. This R2 for instance looks sad and stuffed and kind of arthritic. He’s about 7-inches tall and costs 12.99 when he arrives in September. Still, he’s better then a plain old pillow on your couch.

I was looking for some robots on ebay the other night when I came across this monstrosity. Some guy cross-bred a dalek with an R2 Astromech droid and the results are somewhat comical and somewhat fugly. How’d you like to have this thing behind you in your X-wing while careening down a trench in the Death Star?

“If you blow up the Death Star I will exterminate you.”

Of course if Daleks and R2 units co-existed in the same body, the Jawas never would have caught R2 in the desert. Instead, we would have seen a pile of dead little bodies.
