R2-D2, Where Are You?

In celebration of the 30th anniversary of Star Wars last year, George Lucas was actually able to convince the United States Postal Service to transform some of their mailboxes into R2-D2 look-alikes. They actually didn't last long, as the ever intrepid, enormously witty (and scruffily adorable) O.T.I.S. (of "Odd Things I've Seen" fame) found out when he set out to find one of these examples of extreme movie marketing.

And if you ever find yourself face to face with an R2 unit, as he did, be sure to have this handy-dandy translator close by, you know, in case you want to order a pizza or tell someone to #*%$ off.
