Meyer's Mini R2-D2

Rob Meyer generally makes larger robots, but he came up with a 1:18 scale RC R2-D2 that stands only 6cm (2.36"). (Call Guinness!) The little guy has 2 GM15 pager gearmotors for the drive and one for the dome (which was made out of a measuring spoon.) He has an acrylic body and built up brass tubing for legs.
