I have no official news, but I do recommend following the FB page.

so what exactly are we waiting for on the model space FB page ? a new SW kit ? did they finally realize that the R2D2 was a flop ?
FYI, Disney has a metal MF about 7-8" long and the details are quite good. Kinda something for your office desk at work while we build the big ones at home.
Disregard the paint job on the link below as its not the same as the production piece. But dont get your hopes up over the production paint job either......its just as bad. But cant complain for $20

R2 a flop... Not sure Its a flop as I have no data past the anecdotal... I did not hear many people wanting to step up to a thousand dollar R2 that was only 1/2 scale... myself included and I've already spent well over a grand building one a piece at a time in full size. If it were full size they could reasonable charge $2500 over 2 years like the falcon for a good R2 replica... and I'd pay - but not for a 1/2 scale one... I can get toys close that and with a repaint be happy for 1/10 the cost.
What they should do is hook up with Ringa and build an ANH SD... THAT would be epic...
