Hi Drago,

I actually know the guy who runs that site. He's a buddy of mine.

Thanks for the kind words though.

Sweet... This is exactly why I won't try to build an R2. :lol I'm not going to attempt it unless it would do all that stuff and have, at the least, a pop up radar dish and pop out arm.

OK, that moving holoprojector is just spooky cool. Nice work on everything womo.

What, no functional rocket boosters? Slacker.. :rolleyes


Kidding, of course...that is an *amazing* R2 unit. I don't think I've ever seen one with so many operational widgets on it. I hope mine has even half that stuff when I get around to building it.

 

[Darth Kahnt]

Beautiful job, its nice to see this project reach this point for you.

 

[midnightfett]

[dualedge]

Okay, that's one of the most badass R2's I've seen so far. I'm green with envy.
