This amazing R2-D2 coffee table features the guts from a Star Wars pinball machine from 1991. It features external lights and R2 sound effects too. There’s also a light that resembles Artoo’s holographic projector.
Basically it is the best coffee table ever. It was made by ALTAR Furniture, a company that specializes in taking old pinball machines and putting them inside coffee tables. Unfortunately, it doesn’t look like it’s playable any more, but it still looks amazing.
Sadly, it is outside of my budget at $13,000(USD). I can only afford the R5-D4 unit with the bad motivator. Damn Jawas.
If you have the cash, this is obviously the droid you have been looking for.
