Star Wars Cosplay Isn’t Just For Adults

Look At This 1:1 R2-D2 “Figure” (If You’ve Got $7500 To Spend)

There’s a point where R2-D2 toys stop being “figures” and start being “actual droids with limited functionality”. That point is probably somewhere around 48″ tall and $7500 I mean, look at how this thing from Sideshow ships and has to be put together. And look at the dumb shit people are going to be doing…

A Star Wars Cosplay Hustle From 1977

In 1977, as Star Wars was first blowing up, Lucasfilm were famously ill-equipped to get enough merch out to satisfy fans.

It was cancelled, of course, like most things the post-millennium Lucasarts ever touched, but that doesn’t mean we can’t look over its concept art and wonder what could have been. Note that this isn’t the first time we’ve seen art from the project—we posted about some…
