http://cache.gawker.com/assets/images/4/2009/12/500x_star-wars-toolkit.jpgA toolkit disguised as R2-D2? Sure, why not. This 1:6 scale model Artoo comes loaded with a utility saw, mechanical gripper, periscope scanner and five other tools of the trade. For helping build your Star Wars (http://gizmodo.com/tag/starwars/) toys, naturally.
Considering it's hand-painted and limited edition, it's not actually that expensive at $158 on pre-order. Or maybe I've become de-sensitized to Star Wars prices after searching eBay for months for the perfect vintage AT-AT (original box included, please).
