Attention, Star Wars toy collectors: This one is quite the limited edition.
Aircraft manufacturer Boeing and Japanese airline All Nippon Airways (ANA) unveiled a Star Wars-liveried Boeing 787 Dreamliner on Saturday (September 12) based on the character R2-D2.
Video released by Boeing showed the extensive process used in meticulously painting the jet in the famous blue, white and black colours.
As the plane was rolled out of the hangar in Everett, Washington, characters C-3PO and R2-D2 watched the event.
