2100 piece Star Wars Lego R2-D2 set is revealed

Star Wars and Lego fans rejoice as everyone's favourite droid gets the brick treatment

Lego and Star Wars fans often go hand in hand, which is why we’re sure the imminent arrival of an official Lego Star Wars R2-D2 set will be welcome news for many a brick-stacking, droid-loving geek.

Wired spotted the 1ft tall droid over at lego.wikia.com, which states that the 2,100-piece set can be picked up for £150 when it hits shelves in May.

The fully assembled Lego R2-D2 droid features a retractable third leg as well as a cutting disc and interface arm, both of which are hidden behind a built-in door.
