Who Wants To Torture R2-D2?

Make R2-D2 scream bloody murder by popping him inside the pop-o-matic trouble bubble!

Am I the only one who's a total sucker for Pop-O-Matic Trouble bubble board games? I don't even think I've ever played through a whole game involving one, but I love pushing those bubbles. Today, I discovered a new one that has R2-D2 stuck inside it, and he makes all kinds of robo-freakout noises whenever you pop it. I'm pretty sure the store employees were eyeing the guy who wouldn't stop torturing R2-D2 for a solid five minutes. And honestly, I couldn't care less. I'm seriously considering buying one because, whenever I'm having a bad day, I can look at R2 out of the corner of my eye, smile and proceed torture the hell out of him. Pop! Pop! POP! The fun of driving R2 insane would certainly last longer than the Pop-O-Matic toy I found in a box of Lucky Charms a few years back.

Moral of the story? Screw meditation... if you want stress relief, find a robot to torture.

Looks awesome! I would just pop the little guy all day and forget about the game it comes with.

It's like that scene in RotJ in Jabba's Palace.

Except in a bubble.

That you pop.

Hmm...wouldn't having R2D2 in there really bugger up the dice though? Making the actual game annoying to play?

Also, Julio above me there, Sorry is an entirely different game.

Star Wars is all about robot torture.

Jabba's droids, any droid in an x-wing, C3PO getting broken into pieces in Cloud City. It is a time honored tradition.
