Star Wars Tamagotchi – R2D2

Star Wars meets Tamagotchi in this R2-D2 Digital Pet! First teased on Star Wars Day, this highly anticipated handheld toy is coming to fans later this year. Interact with R2-D2 using the Tamagotchi play pattern with a Star Wars story. From it's time at the Droid Factory to your possession, R2-D2 needs to be charged (feed), wiped (keep happy), and cleaned – if not, R2-D2 stands the risk of being taken away by Jawas! There are two default mini games – Fire Fighting and Dejarik (holochess). Plus train your R2-D2 well to unlock mini games!
