A light-up remote-controlled promotional R2-D2 astromech droid replica from the promotion of Jon Favreau's Star Wars film The Mandalorian and Grogu.
This replica R2-D2 was used in promotional events across Asia, including the Disney toy expo in Bangkok, Thailand (4-7 September, 2025) and Star Wars Celebration in Tokyo, Japan (18-20 April, 2025). More recently, it was used in a promotional event for The Mandalorian and Grogu in Hangzhou, China.
The droid's body and head are hollow, and the head is removable to expose the circuit board within, which powers motion when switched on. The head, powered separately, connects via a USB cable to a 5V power bank and illuminates with a sequence of automatically changing colours. Controlled via a repurposed X-Box 360 remote control, the wheel-mounted droid can be "driven", and the head turned left and right. The four lettered buttons on the remote control a range of pre-set sounds, and by depressing the left joystick, the channel can be changed. With four sounds pre-set for each channel, the droid is capable of 16 distinct sounds.
It is made primarily of fiberglass, with some additional metal interior supports. The 5V power bank is not included in the lot, nor are the batteries which power the remote. Dimensions: 41.75" x 30" x 30.75" (102 cm x 76 cm x 78 cm)
