We love modding here at Atomic. We love Star Wars too.
So when someone takes both of those loves, fuses it with a little computing, and takes a lot of pictures, we're taken to a special place that only the very nerdly types will know - techy heaven.
Made from a simple rubbish bin, bits of offcuts and some effort, Frenk Janse lovingly crafted his R2D2 to have a webcam, glowing feet, inbuilt speakers for authentic R2D2-esque noises and even a fan controller!
While it's not quite the same amount of detail that the Battlestar Galactica mod was, it's still a very impressive take on the R2D2 mould, and definitely worth a long, lusting look.
