Rescue or capture R2D2 who's in TROUBLE!

Star Wars has gone to another solar system in the board game universe with a new version of a classic game … TROUBLE. And it couldn’t be more perfect for a plucky little droid named R2D2.

The game is called R2D2 is in TROUBLE and it’s based on the classic board game where players roll dice with the “pop-o-matic” in the middle of the game and run various pieces around the board, the first one to get all pieces in the safe zone wins. This time, it has a Star Wars vibe.

Press the Pop-O-Matic and R2D2 talks to you.

The design is based on the current Cartoon network series Star Wars Clone Wars. And players can choose to play either a Sith, Jedi (Obi-wan or Anakin), or Droids and race around the board in an attempt to rescue or capture R2D2. And as players click on the Pop-O-Matic, R2D2 sound effects are played.

The rest of the game is the same and is certain to bring tons of fun in less than 12 parsecs!

Cost is $23 at Think Geek. Ages 3 and up.
