Who needs friends when you can have a smart $3,000 Star Wars droid companion -.

It’s almost time for Star Wars Day. We’re counting down the hours to the annual celebration, which for this calendar year will see the arrival of Star Wars: Tales of the Underworld on Disney+, a slew of new Lego Star Wars sets debuting and several other goodies as well.

At that time, a new product arrived at the Disney Store, a very expensive working robot droid with sensors and cameras that allow it to identify and track the operator. It is called the G1T4-M1N1, and since it comes with a run time of up to seven hours, the ability to carry loads of up to 20 lbs, a built-in Bluetooth speaker, a top speed of 6 mph, Wi-Fi 2.4/5 GHz support and also handles so you can easily lift it, all in all this means it is not a cheap companion bot at all.

Disney wants $2,875 for one of these droids, but the good news is that once a delivery is placed, it should arrive at your door pretty quickly. The promise is a 1-2 week wait, but this is pretty much only for U.S., South American and Asian customers, as we are also told:

“This item cannot be shipped to Alaska, American Samoa, Guam, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, Virgin Islands, Forces Africa, Canada, Europe and the Middle East, Forces Americas (excluding Canada) or Forces Pacific.”

Heartbreaking. Oh well, looks like real human friends or pets will have to do for us Europeans for now.
