Ok fellow builders, So I can't wait for my first shipment to arrive so I have gone out to buy the first issue today and this will be my own personal custom build as I will be adding in a few extra things that Model Space will not have for sure. He will be full RC controlled and a few other surprise things.Love

Hope my fellow builders will give a ThumpUp as I build R2 D2 and hope all new people enjoy my posts on the build.

Had a few questions in PM about what I'm going to do to add value to R2.

Well he will have a full on-board speech and should be able to talk to people of you ask him the right questions and he understands other wise you will get a basic reply.

This can be done very easy with a micro computer built inside with a micro sd card holding all the possible replies
