R2-Q5 & R2-D2 USB Hubs Don’T Exactly Save Space

August 11th, 2009 by: Lambert Varias


I mean look at the damned things. They’re almost as large as those Coleman containers that was all the rage when I was in high school. The droids shake their heads and emit bleeps and bloops, but damn they’re huge.

The droids are also quite detailed, so I’m thinking these are collectibles with some functionality. Here’s a closer look at the R2D2 hub:

The R2Q5 and the R2D2 USB hubs are available at GeekStuff4U for about $74 (USD). Giant Artoo not included.
