Bobby of Cast Iron Tattoos in Orlando, Florida inked this excellent mashup. Now he’ll be even more dangerous when he accesses power sockets.

Hello Kitty R2-D2 Tattoo

As Chewbacca once put it “Grrraaaaawhh wahhr!” Combining these two characters increases their cuteness exponentially. Fashionably Geek reader Jodi chose her design well.

R2-D2 Ballerina

Leeloo’s costume for this year makes me think that the original Star Wars trilogy could make a great ballet. We must see Jabba dance with the outer grace that he hides within.

R2-D2, c. 1921

Jordan Thomas is an artist who creates amusing and imaginative steampunk robot sculptures. His other works include characters from BioShock, The Wizard of Oz, and WALL-E. My favorite, though, is his R2 unit.

Don’t worry, it’s not the real R2-D2! It’s just a model. The staff at the Cheyenne Mountain Zoo in Colorado stuffed a cardboard R2 unit with treats and let Emmett, a grizzly bear, have his way with it. Because….

Well, they don’t actually say why. -via Nerd Bastards

I’ve always been impressed with some people’s ability to collect things – stamps, soda cans, comic books, what have you. My amazement over Cho Woong’s extensive collection of Star Wars figures is compounded by his ability to keep everything … so organized and neat! I betcha there’s a good amount of OCD (I’m kidding!) involved in this: Link [in Korean] – via Cribcandy

Hailing all Star Wars geeks. Your life is now complete. Witness as twelve R2-D2s dance, shimmy, pivot and beep in tandem! From what I understand each of these cost at least $100! Wonder what the missus thought of that?
