This Nerf gun mod is pretty cool because the artist is using the shape of the weapon to create the R2-D2. I'll be honest I've had these fun guns in my house for the kids and never noticed the similarity, and I love R2-D2! Here's a quick blurb from Girly Gamer:

"Mav2D2 Nerf Maverick R2D2 mod Star Wars FTW! – I’ve just finished my Mav2D2 Nerf mod (yes another Nerf gun I have given a name and personality lol). This is the first Nerf Maverick I’ve modded and it spoke to me a couple of weeks ago when I flipped it on end one night. It said “Help me GirlyGamer, you’re my only hope”. R2D2 was right there in the Nerf Maverick and to be honest I am just stunned no one else has done this before, but an extensive web-search suggested not… woohoo original idea!

When I decided to start Nerf Maverick R2D2 I had 3 guns on the go (Nerf Recon, Buzz Bee Double Shot – the Zombie mod and the Buzz Bee Rapid Fire), but Mav2D2 had swayed me away! This is a run through of all the faffing involved in the Nerf mod. Remember I’ve only been Nerf paint modding for about 4 weeks, so I’m a beginner and this tutorial is from me as a beginner to whoever needs it. I’d love to try another Maverick some time in the future, maybe add some wheels and symmetry! For now though here’s the tutorial on the R2D2 Nerf Maverick mod, I’ve called ‘him’ Mav2D2."
