Steampunk R2-D2 rusts its way into the future

R2-D2.jpgWe like the SteamPunk ethic here on Gadget Master - see the Steampunk Xbox 360, iPod charger and keyboard - but I'm not sure this one really works. R2-D2, the fictional droid from Star Wars*.

But I don't really know why. A retro vision of a fictional futurism? Hmmm. It's too far removed from any reality. Past, future, or future past... Besides, I don't believe this one is really home made.

What do you think? Leave a comment below. (Thanks to BoingBoing for this one, btw)

* Trivia question: R2-D2 is one of only four characters to appear in all six Star Wars films. Which were the other three?
