Chopper from Star Wars Rebels is built and comes to life in the real world and meets R2-D2! [video]

Take a look at this great behind the scenes video from Star Wars.com that shows off how the new astromech droid from Star Wars Rebels, Chopper, was built in real life. Created by the builders at LucasFilm Chopper had the chance to meet the crew of the show as well as his astromech cousin R2-D2!

"Chopper is the grumpy, lazy, yet ultimately heroic astromech droid of the upcoming Star Wars Rebels animated series -- and Lucasfilm has brought him to life. In this new video, go behind the scenes to see how a fully functioning Chopper was designed, built, and finally, introduced to his creators and to the world."

The finished result for Chopper looked amazing and watching Chopper and R2-D2 interact with each other is an incredible amount of fun!
