We all know about R2D2 and his heroic antics in the Star Wars saga, but what about R2S2? Yes, you heard us right – the R2S2 is a steam-powered variant and uses the same shell as that found in Hasbro’s R2D2 Interactive Droid, although the innards have been replaced with a boiler and dual steam engines instead. The result? A radio controlled steam droid that is able to run around for 10 minutes accented by wood, brass, and leather seampunk elements. Pour me a cuppa hot coffee, R2.
