R2-D2 went with Luke Skywalker from Tatooine to the Death Star and beyond. Now, he’s going everywhere with you.
Disney and Bandai have teamed up to bring Artoo to the pockets of fans who don’t mind training, cleaning and looking after a needy, digital version of the droid wherever they are. The egg-shaped R2-D2 Tamagotchi will be available in two color schemes. There’s a mostly white model that looks like the droid, and a transparent blue model. As you might expect from a Tamagotchi, you’ll interact with the toy using three physical buttons.
R2-D2 can be trained to pick up 19 skills. You’ll also be able to play nine mini-games with him, including firefighting and Dejarik (holochess).
