R2-D2 - Limited Edition Full Size Kenny Baker Artoo

Well, I tried to get us a boost.  A nice tweet got us about 60 new supporters, but despite my efforts, we're stalling.  I'd hoped the bounds would get us back on the "Popular this week" so that new folks would have a chance to see us.

Trying to get supporters is reasonably involved and stressful, so unless something totally radical happens I'm pretty much going to accept that we're not going to make the 5K extension :( 

Hopefully Lego will someday realize that there are people interested in serious Lego works that are huge and high quality.  If the market isn't big enough for them, maybe they could license huge projects to other firms, like they do with Pens, Clocks, and all the other oddball things they stick their name on.

Thanks to everyone for supporting!

Thanks for all your support and sharing!

But it would require some sharing.

If we can keep the current rate going, we'll make that 5K extension (& the 10K as well) - *IF* we can keep up the pace of the last few days.

Please keep sharing!

BTW, our droids have facebook pages, twitter accounts, and youtube channels, oh, and blogs.  MyL3G0 is the Lego R2-D2.  LegoBB8 is our BB-8, and ourMCKY is the mouse droid on most of those.

There are also lots of pictures on my flickr at https://www.flickr.com/photos/120610722@N04/albums 

Seems like we're going to get close to the 5K extension, but not close enough!  :(

If you didn't know, the rules have changed again, so now Artoo has two strikes against getting approved or resubmitted.  Well, we always knew it was a longshot, but for this to even begin to have a chance, we'll need to demonstrate a ton of support and interest for Artoo! 

So, please consider sharing!  Get us back on popular this week!  We can get to 10K and show Lego that people would love to see a set like this!
 

I know it's completely different, but I posted this cool little maze, please check it out!  https://ideas.lego.com/projects/171467I could also use support for my Mini Disney Wonder cruise ship, help it get to 100 so it can start getting supporters for real... https://ideas.lego.com/projects/168969

This really cool microscale needs only 85 more supporters to get the 5K extension, go help them out, we all love Disney, right?

But after seeing the Eilean Donan Castle Idea: https://ideas.lego.com/projects/149294​, I just had to share

Lego BB-8 and MCK-Y both visited there :)
