Resolved by 
Synthiam/ARC users, I now have some series 3D printers and I am starting to build a full size R2D2 unit working with this designer who has a FB page....

Most R2 builders use Padawan 360 build which is based on Arduinos and various other components.
I am thinking about implementing an ARC build using an internal laptop interfacing to EZ-Bs or Arduinos.
Has anyone else done this?
....just joined. Always wanted to add R2D2 to my growing list of robots.
You should check out this site for droids... www.astromech.net , its an offical R2 building community.
Thx. I found that site too.
