At $150US, it'll be a pricey little robot over here you'd think.

Really interested to see one running though

Doesn't roll, but certainly cute and much cheaper - plush BB-8 with sounds!

I think that might be ending up in my youngest daughter's bed this side of Christmas. That's adorable.

New promotional / ad video. Some cool features (including hologram - sort of)

I stayed up 'til almost three in the morning watching the stream, which was mostly 'cause of this droid, so I had to get it...

On that note, I can't wait to see BB-8!

Pure droid love. A bunch of the guys at work were frothing over this clip this morning. Credit cards were being whipped out and the Mighty Ape URL was being exchanged.

I know two other guys who bought one, too, so it'll there will be a lot of racing!
