The making of a R2D2 clone
RobbyMac:
One flower pot from lowes... $8
One sheet of pvc from barn... $0
One Ipod Speaker from kmart... $14
One Ipod from Wife... $0
Some spray paint, cardboard, and custom printed wrap from work... $0
R2 D2 Costume for my 7 yr old.... priceless.
Ok so it's not as good as the original post... but my son seemed to think it was just as good.

No actually that looks pretty darn good. Just proves my point that the one in this post is obsessively over-complicated. Sturdier materials would have made it look better, but it's a costume, so that wouldn't make any sense. Again though, it goes back to my original post in that finding one of those domes is hard to do. Still love the costume though, reminds me of some of the stuff I used to cobble together for halloween when I was little. :D

Not really, Robbymac drags his boy to all the premiers, children's hospitals, 5k runs etc... just like the R2 in the video.
