It's a night light. The first part of the gif is what it looks like turned off with the room lights on. The second part of the gif is what it looks like turned on with the room lights off.E.H.

They are making it look like the room lights are being turned off and on by touching the lamp. You can't deny that

I'm pretty sure the marketing department are the ones who came up with "we will have an R2-D2 like robot but not R2-D2, so we can sell new things," anyway.

Yes, but the important thing is that it looks awesome and adorable and is worth buying if you never really wanted a jar jar binks touch lamp.McParadigm wrote:I'm pretty sure the marketing department are the ones who came up with "we will have an R2-D2 like robot but not R2-D2, so we can sell new things," anyway.

Did you know the "Kessel Run - 12 parsecs" line is accurate? The MF's Nav computer is able to plot better routes than most nav computers. Meaning it can navigate closer to stars, planets and other gravity obstacles.Simple Torture wrote:Did you guys know that Palpatine's first name is Sheev?

Re: Star Wars: Episode VII: The Force Awakens (2015)
That's an EU thing, though--in the books, the "Kessel Run" was a smuggler's route between a group of black holes, so the goal was to make the shortest run. That's no longer canon, but "Sheev" is.CopperTom wrote:Did you know the "Kessel Run - 12 parsecs" line is accurate? The MF's Nav computer is able to plot better routes than most nav computers.
